Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Serve food directly from the lined slow cooker. Once your slow cooker cools, remove the liner and throw away for easy clean up.
  • Tip 2
    Ingredient Substitution Vegetarians in your family? Use vegetable broth instead of the beef broth. The colour will not be a rich, deep brown, though, so Golden French Onion Soup may be a more appropriate name!
