Variations & Tips

Want to mix it up a bit? Here are a few ideas! Add a can of drained black beans and a cup of frozen corn in the last hour of cooking for a Tex-Mex flair. For those who like it hot, choose a spicy salsa or add chopped jalapenos. And if you’re not on a low-carb diet, mixing in some cooked rice directly into the slow cooker makes it an all-in-one meal.
