If your Slow Cooker Cooks "Hot" you may want to use LOW instead of HIGH to prepare this stew!

Canned tomatoes come enhanced with many "flavors" these days. They are a marvelous staple in the winter when flavorful garden tomatoes are non-existent. Try the fire-roasted or roasted garlic canned tomatoes which are available in most supermarkets.
