I'm very proud of my "this produce ain't getting any fresher" recipe. I toss a whole bunch of stuff in the slow cooker, add a generous splash of red wine and soy sauce, and ... wow!! But not this time.
I think I used too much tomato sauce, and I left it in the crockpot long enough that it actually burned. I tried some today and it was just inedible. Usually I'm willing to eat my mistakes, but this one is beyond my capacity.
I'm thinking about a last-ditch effort to squeeze some use out of it, like maybe as a base for a Shepherd's pie, but I suspect it would poison whatever it touches. There's the guilt factor of wasting food, and the legitimate frustration of having wasted scarce food money. Sigh ... I hate decisions like this.
