I sometimes put chicken or pork loin in the crockpot and toss different jelly, spreads, preserves in. Occasionally will add little of whatever fruit was in the jelly. Good mix is hot pepper cranberry preserve with either chix/pork add a few cranberries, sliced apple last hr. Just be cause to tilt the lid a bit towards end of cooking to reduce the condensation from turning to excess liquid. That takes away the preserve flavor.
Just got back from Trader Joe’s a little while ago. I don’t get to go off because it’s not close by but I did pick up that carrot cake and I’m glad that I did. The store was sold out of almost everything. It was so crowded and I got there on the late side, but I was able to get the carrot cake.
I will try that carrot cake. I just bought the peach and raspberry crumble for the second time because that was so good. Carrot cake is next on my list.
Actually if I may just make a small correction. Jicama comes from the potato family and only LOOKS like a radish, it does not come from the family of radishes. It has a crispy texture similar to a chestnut or an apple.@Mrs_Turner2013
