KIDNEY BEAN SOUP
DON'T COOK KIDNEY BEANS IN A SLOW COOKER UNLESS YOU DO THIS FIRST
- Soak - Raw kidney beans need to soak in water for at least five hours.
- Boil - Drain the beans and change to a fresh pot of water. Bring to a boil (212°F) for a minimum of 10 minutes.
- Prepare - Once you've followed the previous two instructions, your kidney beans are no longer toxic and can finish cooking in whatever method you prefer, such as in a slow cooker or on the stove top.

LAMB STEW
Used a left over leg of lamb, At first it looked too long for the slow cooker, but it easily cracked in two at the joint.
I cut up celery, carrots, potatoes, red onions, red peppers and put them in the bottom with a half box of chicken broth.
I added tarragon, garlic powder, black pepper and some of this mixed spice called Kickin' Chicken.
I put the lamb on top.
I set it on 4 hour high setting, but it took a long while to start cooking. At 4 hours I reset it on a lower setting after seeing that it was almost done. I cut the lamb off the bone and let it cook a while. Then I put it on the "warm setting" until Elizabeth got home to eat some.
********************************
We loved the lamb stew each time we had it. That spice has a bit of bite, but not one that turns Elizabeth off. I watered mine down a bit more with chicken broth. Then on the last night I put a dollop of sour cream in before warming it in the microwave. That was very, very good.
