Slow-Cooker Creamy Tomato and Tortellini Soup
As they say, opposites attract. That’s certainly the case with sweet, acidic tomatoes and creamy dairy—in all its many forms. After all, it’s this better-together combination that makes lasagna so luxurious, pizza so mouthwatering and grilled cheese and tomato soup so irresistible. So when we set out to make an extra-easy slow-cooker soup, we knew we wanted it to feature this combo. But hold on—dairy in the slow cooker? That’s usually a less-than-ideal combination (dairy can easily curdle in the slow cooker). That’s why the trick to this recipe is waiting until the end to add the cream and cheesy tortellini. That’s right, we decided a double-dose of dairy would be the perfect complement to the tomatoes in this soup, and the result is rich, velvety and very comforting! And that’s not all, the dollop of fresh pesto adds bright, anise-tinged notes and the sprinkle of shredded Parmesan adds nutty richness that take this simple soup to the next level!

Slow-Cooker Ham and Black-Eyed Pea Soup
Peasant food, cucina povera, whatever you want to call it, this soup descends from a cooking tradition that focuses on maximizing the flavor of humble ingredients. With little more than beans and a ham hock, which is more bone than meat, it’s almost confounding that this soup turns out so delicious. The slow cooking certainly contributes, simply by allowing time and heat to extract as much flavor as possible from the ham hock. Not that this couldn’t be done with stovetop cooking, but who wants to stand over the stove when you could leave this cooking all day and come home to dinner?

Slow-Cooker Barbecue Chicken Thighs
Meet your new favorite party dish! Sweet and smoky with just the right amount of spicy kick, these barbecue chicken thighs are a crowd pleaser that’ll make every host’s life a little bit easier. Here’s why this recipe is so good: First, thighs are the perfect cut of chicken for the slow cooker, because they contain more fat, which means they don’t dry out as easily as breasts. Second, the sauce is homemade—and homemade does not equal hard in this case. If you can chop an onion, you can make this sauce, and it is so worth it! We’ve made sure that there’s enough sauce to coat the chicken while it cooks, and some extra to add as a finishing touch, because let’s be real—it’s all about the sauce when barbecue’s on the menu!
