Notes
- Garlic. The best garlic I have found for a cheats method, is the frozen chopped garlic from the supermarket. It is a total prep time saver.
- Frozen. I love frozen stock cubes. You can batch instant pot veggie stock, freeze, and load frozen stock into the slow cooker. It will then defrost and cook with the stew.
