Recipe Types: Slow Cooker


Grandma’s Corn Chowder

A Springdell Farm recipe from Farmer Jamie! Bacon ends are a perfect item for making chowder…especially for those of you who have some corn in the freezer from your summer share.


Winter Root Vegetable Chili

A great comfort food to get you through the winter doldrums (or a depressing Superbowl). This is a very flexible recipe.  Turnips, small diced sweet potatoes, and carrots would also work as your primary veggies.  Substitute the beef for ground pork, chicken, goat (chorizo!), turkey or tofu (though I’d recommend adding the latter about 30 minutes from the end of cook time).  As always, make it your own!


Slow Cooker Char Siu Lamb with Aromatic Steamed Bok Choy

If you’re looking to try some lamb, you may like this one! Char Siu has a very accessible flavor, a subtle sweetness against the ginger and five spice, a bit of saltiness from the soy sauce. Serve on this bed of aromatic steamed bok choy (or with another green or sliced tart apple if bok toy is not available) and jasmine rice for a complete meal. Micro basil makes a great garnish!
