Recipe Notes

If you have a programmable slow cooker that automatically switches to the WARM setting after the cooking time is done this recipe will keep well on WARM for several hours so you can sleep in!

If you do not want to use a crock pot, you can cook on the stove and it should only take 20-30 minutes.
