Notes
- Cook the slow cooker sweet potatoes potatoes in a single layer. If you need to stack another layer on top. But don't do more than two layers. You don't need to poke holes in the veggies. They will cook as they are without the need for steam release. If possible try and cook similar sized potatoes together they cook evenly and at the same rate. Avoid opening the slow cooker too much during cooking, as this will bring down the temperature and result in a longer cook time. Be sure to check out my awesome crockpot tips and tricks post for even more handy info! Storage - keep in an airtight container inside the fridge for up to 4 days. There are 0 WW Blue Plan SmartPoints in one serving (if no butter is used).
