    What's the point of using a slow cooker if you can't cook the rice and beans in it also? - 8/17/10

    You can use lentils & rice if you want to cook all at once, dry beans don't get done as quickly as the vegies. cooked beans get mushy if added too early. I don't like mushy beans or mushy rice. just my personal preference. I keep both cooked wildrice and beans in the freezerto add 2 dishes
