3 Quart Crock Pot

The 3 quart crock pot is only slightly larger in size but extremely lightweight. It is the perfect slow cooker for cooking a two person meal.

Although there are many types of insert available for a 3 quart crock pot, the traditional removable stoneware insert is considered to be the best. The non-stick crock is perfect if you do a lot of sauteing because you only need a few drop of oil to grease the surface. It is also lighter in weight because it is made of lightweight material. Whichever you choose is really a matter of personal choice.

Since the 3 qt crock pot can cook enough food for two person, you can take turn to prepare the food everyday. For example, you can be in charge of cooking for dinner while the other person, be it your spouse, child, friend or another family member can prepare the slow cook to cook for breakfast before he or she sleeps. This simple share of responsibility can really improve the bond or friendship between the two of you.

Most people hate the idea of washing up their pots because food will usually stuck in the pots and it will take a long time to scrub them out. This doesn't happen with a 3-1/2-quart crock pot that is non-stick. For the stoneware crock, you will only experience such a problem if you put it too little water so be sure to follow what the recipes say at all times unless you know what you are doing! If you have overcooked food stuck in your crock pot, the best way to remove it would be to soak it with water and let the food soften for a few hours before washing it again.
