Answers:
Slow cookers are versitile!. You can make stews, roasts, casseroles!.!.!.!.
I personally like the St!. Patrick's Day boiled dinner:

corned beef
onion
turnip
carrot
potatoes or a substitute if you make colcannon
http://en!.wikipedia!.org/wiki/Colcannon

Another idea:
beef stew
seer small/medium chunks of beef in fry pan
Put beef, onion, celery, carrot, peas, green beans, barley, water, garlic, salt and thyme into crock!. [Feel free to add/substitute items that will flavor and complement this basic stew] Let cook on high for about 2 hours and on low for another 2-3!. Stir as needed!. The barley should thicken the stew as it finishes cooking!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
