Friday: Autumn Sausage NonFried Rice

Adapted from Crockpot365.blogspot.com

Personal Note: Since we were leaving Friday right after work to head to ACU’s Homecoming , I wanted to make something that could be eaten fairly easily in the car. Well, I pick up SmithCale and let him eat, then we switch drivers and I eat. I’ve started brown-bagging our dinners when we leave for the weekend for a while. Since I know we’ll eat out when we’re there, I figure I’ll lessen the damage by cutting out an extra meal. Yes, I am that cheap/delusional.

Plan of Attack:

1. Add ingredients to Crockpot

2. Cook low for 5-7 hours or high for 3-4 hours

Ingredients for 2:

½ pound sausage (already cooked)

½ large apple or 1 small apple, chopped leaving the peel on

½ yellow onion, chopped

1 carrot, chopped

1 ½ cooked rice (I had leftover jasmine rice)

¼ C raisins

½ Tbsp parsley flakes

½ Tbsp brown sugar

¼ tsp allspice

¼ tsp cinnamon

1/8th tsp black pepper

¼ C water

Instructions:

1. Add all ingredients into Crockpot*
2. Stir
3. Cook on low for 5-7 hours or high for 3-4 hours

*I happen to by very intimate with my slow cooker to know when I cook non-liquid meals in it, it likes to burn on one side. So since I was going to be out all day and couldn’t baby it, I lined the inside of my Crockpot with foil and then proceeded as normal*
