This fits the bill every single time! The thing is w/crock pots if I have to do any pre-cooking, or browning etc. to me that defeats the purpose of crock pot cooking. I like recipes where I put everything at once in the crock pot and just turn it on, that is what makes it easy. If I have to saute, brown, boil, items I may as well just use the stove and pots and pans. Evaporated Milk: Different than condensed milk, evaporated milk is actually milk with half of the water content removed.
