Easy Crockpot Potatoes Food

SLOW-COOKER MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Toss the potatoes, butter, 1 tablespoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper together in a 6-quart slow cooker. Add 1 cup of water, then cover and cook on high until the potatoes are tender, about 4 hours. (The potatoes might have browned lightly in spots but that is okay.)
• Remove the lid and add the sour cream and 1 1/2 cups warm milk to the potatoes. Use a potato masher to smash the potatoes until they are mostly smooth. If the potatoes need to be thinned out, stir in the remaining 1/2 cup warm milk. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper. Garnish with chives.

EASY SLOW COOKER CHEESY POTATOES

Steps:

• Mix hash brown potatoes, Cheddar cheese, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, onion, milk, seasoned salt, garlic, and 1/2 cup cheese-flavored crackers in a slow cooker.
• Cook on Low, stirring occasionally until cooked through, about 2 hours. Stir and top with remaining 1/2 cup cheese-flavored crackers.

SLOW COOKER BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Prick the potatoes with a fork several times, then rub potatoes with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and wrap tightly in foil. Place the potatoes into a slow cooker, cover, and cook on High for 4 1/2 to 5 hours, or on Low for 7 1/2 to 8 hours until tender.

SLOW COOKER SCALLOPED POTATOES

Steps:

• Generously spray a slow cooker with cooking spray. Place a layer of potatoes in the bottom of the slow cooker and season with salt and pepper. Repeat until all potatoes have been used.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and whisk until bubbling. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly add milk and continue to cook, whisking continually, until thick, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in garlic.
• Remove from the heat and add Cheddar cheese. Stir until cheese has melted, placing it back on the heat briefly if necessary, being careful the mixture doesn't scorch. Pour cheese sauce over the potatoes. Shake the slow cooker a bit (do not stir!) to allow cheese sauce to reach all the way to the bottom.
• Cook on Low for 8 hours or on High for 4 hours, until potatoes are tender and fully cooked.
