Yes the texture is very cool! Usually it takes a few cooking adventures to get the texture right where you want it.

What kind of crock pot do you have?


I agree about cooking spray. I use Winona Pure sunflower oil spray, which doesn't have all the nasty chemicals of Pam, but I still always cover my nose with a kitchen towel when I spray it so I don't breathe it in

Not sure what kind of crock pot it is because I am not at home. But I will check and let you know. Seems that most crock pots have a ceramic glazed pot no?

I prefer stainless steel for cooking unless it is a ceramic dutch oven or baking dish. Depends on what I am cooking. Good tip on the sunflower oil spray!

BTW, cookie monster, have you ever tried those crock pot liners? Makes cleanup so much easier and without a spray.

LMAO..omg too funny, no I have not tried crock pot liners.

I wish I could be a cookie monster but I have to be careful with the sweets. If I look at them for too long I gain weight. Practicing restraint was never my thing.

Well, me too, actually. At my age, I just can't eat an entire bag like I used to. I think I've gained weight just posting on this thread.

I read somewhere that reaching a goal of 80% good-20% "treats" is pretty good; 90-10 is better. So many yummies in this thread that maybe I can change my habits

With Pete's help, I made a delicious meal last night.

We made quarts of sofrito from scratch on Friday night and

I froze most of it but I used a generous cup in a pot of pink beans, and

I used a generous cup in a pot of bacalao.

We had white rice and yuca con mojo too, yum yum.

Puerto Rican food! YUM. Wow that all sounds delicious. Thank you for the links!

Now there is a great idea. Make Sofrito and freeze some. I am going to do that this week.
