Hi sanna31 3750446, It really depends on what you are cooking, but you could look at traditional recipes for the cook times and the slow cooker recipe for the flavor. Thanks! -Editors of FaveHealthyRecipes

The recipe sounds wonderful as do many of the slow cooker ones. My question for the Potato Soup w/black beans is: I don't have a slow cooker....Is there a way to convert the cooking times for a conventional stove?

Good catch. Our recipes are reader submitted, and rarely issues like this arise. The recipe as it appears now is correct.

Ham is mentioned in the instructions but not the ingredient list - how much ham do you use?
