Re: Menu...a big one!
The crockpot hashbrown thingy was super yum!
What size crockpot do you use? I have a 6 or a 6.5 quart and I often have to double recipes to fill it up enough so it cooks properly.
I have a 3, a 5 and 7 quart slow cookers. For the hashbrown recipe I used the 7 qrt but only let it cook it for 5 hours. My rule of thumb is that if it's over half full, then it's ok to cook for the entire time suggested, any less than that and you have to start shaving off some cooking time.
