Loading... Fix-It and Forget-It Slow Cooker Freezer Meals: 150 Make-Ahead Dinners, Desserts, and More! (edition 2019)by Hope Comerford (Author) Grandville | Jan 13, 2020 |   With Raspberry Balsamic Chops on page 195 I found the flavor combination of raspberry balsamic vinaigrette and garlic powder to be unpleasant. Italian Chicken on page 71 has 3 cups dried garbanzo beans and 1 cup chicken broth. I thought that seemed really light on liquid so I added another 1/2 cup broth and the 1 lb. bag I had was only 2 1/2 cups so I tried it that way. The recipe had no directions for putting the beans on the bottom or mixing them together. I chose to mix. Those beans in the top half of the crock pot were undercooked. Creamy Italian Chicken on page 73 includes a brick of cream cheese with the chicken spices and other ingredients. The cream cheese flavor was quite moticeable and I did not care for it. Southwest Chicken and White bean Soup on page 273 tasted alright but was mild/bland in flavor. Next time I would try 1) adding more salsa than just 1 cup 2) adding more cumin than 2 tbsp, 3) adding salt 4) some combination of 1)-3) Perusing other recipes it appears to me some may be short on liquids as well.
