Crock pots/slow cookers all heat differently. There is no standard among manufacturers. Cooking times are suggested guidelines based on our testing. Please adjust cooking times and temps to work with your brand and model of slow cooker.nutrition data

Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.

Easy and tasty. I used hot Italian sausage for a little more flavor. I also used diced tomatoes, not whole. I'm not a fan of using whole tomatoes in a recipe like this where they don't really get broken up from stirring, etc. If you want to shorten the cooking time, saute the onion and green pepper before adding to the crockpot.
