• (Alternately, you could saute them on top of the stove) Then I combine as above, and put it in a microwaveable dish with a cover.
• I heat it on 70% for about 10 minutes, to get it hot and bubbly.

• (Micro-cooking in a slow-cooker crock, stand back so you don't get sucked into the time warp!) If yours has a plastic lid, I take no responsibility if you melt it in the microwave.
• After it was good and hot, I plopped it into the electric jacket-thingy part of the crockpot cooker.
• I'm sure there's a technical name for it, but I don't know it.
• I had plugged it in and set it on low, so it was nice and warm already.
• I use a couple heavy rubber bands stretched across the handles to secure the lid.
• This whole thing I slid into a box I keep on hand for just this purpose, and cover with a towel, tucked around it.
• The crockpot fits snugly and no worries about it tipping over in the car.
• A friend once spilled an entire crockpot of french onion soup all over the floor of her minivan.
