Have a stubborn white film in your crockpot that won’t come off in a regular washing? Here’s a solution: add about three tablespoons of baking soda and a few drops of dish soap to your pot and fill it up with water. Turn your slow cooker on low for a few hours. Then, pour out the water and use a non-abrasive sponge and a bit more baking soda to scrub away the film. Rinse, and your slow cooker should look like new!
To keep another white film from forming, consider using crockpot liners every time you cook. They’ll cost you about $4 per 6-pack, but they’ll save you the hassle of soaking and scrubbing.
There are a lot of easy slow cooker recipes for bread out there, but if you find that the food you cook in your slow cooker tends to be more crisp on the edges than you’d like, try lining the inside with foil if you don’t already have crockpot liners. Foil will help distribute heat evenly and make cleanup a breeze.
Slow cooker dips are the best! Why limit yourself to one crockpot recipe at a time? Use heavy-duty foil to create a crockpot divider across your slow cooker. Then use a slow cooker liner to keep two different dips separated.
You may have to adjust the amount of liquid called for in the recipe (like adding 1/2 cup water or broth if no liquid is called for), but otherwise, converting a conventional-cooking recipe to an easy slow cooker recipe is simple. Just use the guide above.
You may also be wondering what temperature is low on a slow cooker, and what temperature is high. The answer varies according to your model, but you can generally expect the low setting to heat your slow cooker to 170-190 degrees Fahrenheit over several hours. Setting your crockpot to high is the equivalent to 280-300 degrees.
Also, if you’re making a stew or soup, just be sure to add the veggies in first and place the meat on top. You’ll never wonder how to use a crockpot for a normal recipe again!
Did you know that every time you take off the lid to stir or sniff what’s inside your slow cooker that the temperature drops dramatically? It can take up to half an hour to get the temp up again! Only open if you absolutely must!
Although you can fully cook your crockpot roast in a slow cooker, searing meats first will give your dish a richer flavor. The seared pieces help hold in juices, and any extra fatty parts crisp up nicely.
Fill mason jars with chocolate chips and other candy melts. Then, fill your slow cooker halfway with hot water and set to high.
After about 30 minutes (uncovered), give the chocolate a stir. If the chocolate is fully melted, set your slow cooker to low, and the chocolate should stay melted for a couple of hours.
Just make sure not to cover your slow cooker — any water or moisture that gets into the chocolate will cause it to seize.
Chocolate slow cooker dips are always a hit!
Ever wondered how to use a slow cooker for multiple things at once? Making a roast, and want potatoes not soaked in the juices as a side? Wrap the seasoned roast and potatoes individually, and the flavors will stay separate.
Free up your burners with one of the easiest slow cooker hacks, and remember to stir your potatoes at least once every half hour.
Instead of a lid, place a glass baking tray on top of your slow cooker — preferably one that’s filled with some chili con carne or another tortilla-ready dish. Put your tortillas inside the glass dish a few minutes before serving and they’ll be ready along with your slow-cooker meal!
This is one of my favorite crockpot ideas, and the finished product is perfect for gift giving! These crockpot candles are easy to create.
TIP: Use a clothespin or even the clip on a pen or mechanical pencil to keep the wick centered while your candle wax solidifies.
Melt down all those broken crayon bits in a slow cooker and have kids reuse them, or give them away as gifts. Use little Dixie cups, fun silicone baking shapes or even empty toilet paper tubes as molds!
This works especially well for Crockpot bread recipes.
THIS is how to use a crockpot during the holidays! Boil cinnamon sticks, apple peels, orange rinds, whole cloves, cranberries, and other delicious-smelling ingredients in water.
It also makes a great slow cooker dip for fruits! Just let the yogurt cool first.
Enjoy your homemade goodness!
Using multiple slow cookers as humidifiers throughout the house works like a charm when you’re feeling under the weather and don’t already have a humidifier!
Fill your slow cooker about three-quarters of the way up with water, cover, and turn the setting on high. After about an hour, let the moisture escape into the air. Make sure to refill the pot with room-temperature water as needed — and don’t let the pot run when there’s nothing in it.
An appliance timer costs about $11 for two on Amazon and can assist you with your slow-cooking adventures if your crockpot doesn’t already have a built-in timer.
Despite our best efforts, the slow cooker itself (under the removable stoneware) can get pretty gross. It’s also not dishwasher safe. Solution? Fill a small baking dish with ammonia and set it in the liner of your slow cooker. Then simply pop the lid on and leave it overnight. You don’t even need to turn your slow cooker on! The ammonia fumes will loosen the gross stuff, and you can simply wipe it up in the morning.

Depending on where you live, what your accommodations are like, how you choose to price your space, and of course, how much demand there is for your digs, you can make anywhere from $200 per week or more for one guest in one room when you list your home on Airbnb.

Put the two together and you could have success selling your photos on Foap. Companies are always looking for fresh stock photography that doesn’t look like a stock image.
You’ll get paid per download of your image. Yep, you read that right. It means you could sell the same image over and over. Point and shoot, mama!
Foap will take a 50% commission on every download — so if your image sells for $10.00, you’ll make $5.00. Some people have made as much as $2,000 a year in extra income!
When you sign up with Rakuten you’ll get a $10 bonus when you spend $25. Did you hear that? Free. Money. (Sort of.)

I know I’m not the first one to recommend this. If you’re crafty and you’ve been talking yourself out of selling your creations on Etsy, let me give you a nudge — just do it!
Keep in mind, you’ll pay three fees: a listing fee, a transaction fee, and a payment-processing fee. You’ll pay $0.20 per listing you publish in the Etsy marketplace.
This gives you four months to sell your item, and once it sells, you’ll pay a 5% transaction fee on the sale price (which doesn’t include cost of shipping) plus the amount you charge for shipping and gift wrapping. After that you’ll pay 3% plus $0.25 for payment processing if you use Etsy Payments.
It’s really as simple as it sounds. Sign up to be a home-based launderer, and start taking clients in your area. If you enjoy doing laundry and you have good attention to detail, then Laundry Care is one for you.

You will also have to provide all your own detergents, fabric softener, stain treatments, and dryer sheets.

Getting published used to be hard; self-publishing used to be expensive. No more.
Once you’ve written your manuscript, simply upload it to Kindle Direct Publishing, set your sale price, and start earning 70% royalty.
It’s free and your eBook shows up next to everything else on Amazon within 24-48 hours. In order to really be a successful self-published author of an eBook, get cozy with social media, because you’ll want to tell everyone you know to go check out your new book on Amazon.com.
If you’re a teacher taking a break to be home with your kiddos, or you just have a lot of smarts in areas like math, science, or foreign languages, Tutor.com is a great way to earn some side cash.
