It might not sound good but...

Here's that soup/stew I was talking about. Thanks, Laine, for the recipe.

Ingredients:

1/2 cabbage shredded (sautee w/ nxt 3 indredients until all wilted)

kale (3-4 big leaves, de-rib & chop small)

onion (sliced)

garlic (2-3 cloves)

2-3 lg potatoes (prebaked or not, big cubes, add to crockpot)

Jimmy Dean hot sausage (brown & drain, add to crockpot)

4 c chicken or vegetable stock

add salt & pepper, red pepper flakes and caraway seeds to taste

Stir it all up and cook low for however long (or until the potatoes are done if they're not precooked). Freezes OK, but when you thaw & reheat, the potatoes break up. Hope you like it!

p.s. I LOVE reynolds slow cooker liners. Not only is cleanup non-existant, but you can also put your food in the fridge w/out having to put the crockpot dish in there. Can't be doing that, it competes with the milk and my crystal light for valuable shelf-space. I just seal the top with one of those pampered chef twixit clips & put the bag in the veggie drawer.
