Would dried rosemary from a bottle with the seasonings work? Or really need the fresh stuff?
Sure! Fresh is just an idea.
Thanks! This will be dinner tomorrow night! Glad I saw this before I headed to the store tonight 🙂
If I use minced garlic from a jar how many tsp/tbsp would be equivalent to the 4 cloves?
I believe 1/2 teaspoon minced equals about I clove
Thank you! Needed some new meal ideas for my family
Lina I prepared your slow cooker lasagna and the slow cooker lava cake TO DIE FOR thank you!!
Oooh slow cooker lasagna and lava cake???? Yummm do tell please 🙂
Elen both SO good SO easy! The lasagna is amazing and does brown on top. Great to serve vegetarian as well-no meat needed just sub veggies such as zucchini, mushrooms and spinach! Simply break dry lasagna noodles to fit your crock. I use my favorite bottled sauce. The Lava cake tastes like molten cakes served in restaurants but it is awkward to serve…also BETTER next day as it chills and sets. Also add-inns needed IMO such as chocolate chips or nuts! Bon Apetite!!
Love this description and now I’m hungry for both those dishes 🙂
Just found it yey
This looks amazing! I will definitely be trying this!
Definitely trying this. Thank you
Thanks for sharing !! Looks so yummy and simple to make 🙂
oooh thank you for another recipe! We just had the Creamy Italian chicken last night. One of my favorites! Then tomorrow we are having the Cilantro and Lime Chicken. These help out so much! & we love the LAVA cake! So good. Thank you!
I use these same ingredients as a glaze to bake chicken breasts in the oven minus the corn starch and water and it’s delicious. Can’t wait to try this, thanks Lina!
I love you, Lina!!!! You always have great ideas and style. 🙂
That’s so sweet! Thanks for reading and the nice comment. 🙂
