The best slow cooker ham and cabbage recipe

Looking forward to this at  the end of Lent. Hope to cook this. Been off meat all Lent so far.  So so hard but I do love a good stew.

If you’ve got a slow cooker in your pantry, you can always get a delicious home-cooked meal on the table, even after a busy day at work. This recipe tastes like the kind of home cooking that requires hovering over a hot stove all day. The good news is that it’s an easy, set-it-and-forget-it recipe that will win you rave reviews.
With vegetables, meat, and potatoes all cooked together, it’s a great one-pot meal. For added flavor and texture, you can top it with crunchy bits of cooked bacon. If you want to serve something on the side, a crisp green salad is always welcome.
