Join the discussionLooks delicious!! Could it be done in the slow cooker? Off so, how long?
Thanks!!
Hi Carly!
I would do the first few steps on the stove so you can cook the kale down a bit. Then I would add it all to the slow cooker for probably 4-6 hours
on low. And don’t add the parsley/quinoa til the last 5-10 minutes like the original recipe.Let us know how it turns out!
This was delicious, thank you for the recipe! I am going to make this again tonight, but cut the amount of black pepper in half as it was pretty spicy when reheated.
