How to Make Potatoes and Carrots in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
I have to brag on my husband for a bit. You see, he loves to cook and loves to help me come up with recipe ideas. There are even times when I am not in the kitchen that he will surprise me with coming up with a recipe all on his own. Such is the case with this Crock Pot Potatoes and Carrots recipe. He did an awesome job on it. You are going to love it!
This recipe is a fantastic way to have veggies ready for a few meals with just one time of cooking! They taste just as good heated up as they do the first night. It was such a relief to not have to worry about what sides we were going to have for a few nights!

32 oz of broth PLUS 2-3 cups of water. I feel like these will be swimming in liquid. Is this accurate?
Yes, this is accurate. With 3 lbs of potatoes, 1 lb of baby carrots and an onion, the veggies fill up quite a bit of a 6 quart crock pot. In order for the veggies on top to cook up as quickly as the veggies that are lower, you need all of them to be covered with liquid. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do!
