We are pretty pooped out. Later this week I want to make a stew in the crockpot. When I make it, I do the potatoes on the stove so they don't soak up the juices of the meat. Do you put carrots in yours?

I sometimes use carrots, but not often....no one but me in the family really likes them. When I steam broccoli and cauliflower to serve together w/a separate bowl of cheese sauce to put over them, I put in sliced carrots for color...and for me.

You see, one son likes cauliflower best, and the other likes broccoli, so I have both w/cheese sauce and everybody's happy to spoon out his favorite.
