How do you cook rice a roni in crock pot?

* Slow cookers work by using low, moist heat. This method is great for tenderizing tough cuts of meat or creating stews, but it's not ideal for cooking rice. Rice needs consistent heat and a specific water-to-rice ratio to cook properly.

* Rice-A-Roni requires boiling water. The instructions specifically call for boiling water to cook the rice and pasta. Slow cookers don't get hot enough to boil water effectively.

Alternatives:

* Follow the package instructions. Rice-A-Roni is designed to be cooked on the stovetop. The instructions are simple and will give you the best results.

* Use your slow cooker for the rest of your meal. If you're making a meal with rice, you can use your slow cooker for the other components (like a casserole, soup, or chili) and then cook the Rice-A-Roni separately.

For a rice dish in the slow cooker:

* Try a recipe specifically designed for slow cooking rice. You can find many online recipes that will work well in a slow cooker.

* Consider using a different type of rice, such as brown rice or wild rice, as they tend to cook better in a slow cooker.
