Let me just start out by saying, I LOVE this recipe. We have had it several times and every time my family goes crazy over it. Mikey calls it the “kitchen sink” casserole because it has all kinds of yummy ingredients in it! This recipe was born after I found a similar recipe in Gooseberry Patch’s 150 Recipes in a 13 x 9 Pan and just knew with a few tweaks this would be a fantastic slow cooker recipe!

This recipe also gave me a great opportunity to test out a new silicone slow cooker liner I bought on Amazon thanks to a Crock Posse member (our YouTube community) suggestion. The “baked” on cheese and rice gave me the perfect chance to see if this liner could help me avoid soaking and scrubbing my ceramic slow cooker. The result? I loved it!! It kept the cheese from sticking and it washed right off in the dishwasher. I can see us using it a LOT in the future.
