Oh, my oh my! The smell and taste is exquisite.  I tossed a batch of cooked pinto beans into the slow cooker with a can of EE kernel corn, one can of stewed tomatoes, three of those Lightlife spicy black bean burgers (nuked for a couple of minutes just to thaw because you never want to dump frozen into a warm mixture in a slow cooker) chopped into small pieces and a small can of Herdez salsa verde. When that was hot and bubbling I added a container of leftover white rice.

Came back home to bliss.  And the cost?  Beans, rice, corn and salsa were either free or money makers – so $1.50 for the burgers…works for me!
