Default Sweet Potato in a Crock Pot--What?

I picked up 2 1 quart crock pots at a yard sale and I'm loving it. It's just the right size for me. I have quite a few recipes that just started out as an experiment.

Today I scrubbed and cut into 1 inch slices a sweet potato. I put it in the crock with a tablespoon of chicken stock for 3 or 4 hours. It came out as if it was perfectly baked. I removed it from the crock, put in a tablespoon of butter and swirled each piece around, then salt.

I fix 1 or 2 dishes, soups or sauces every morning with lots of veggies in these crocks. Clean-up is a snap. [i know i sound like a commercial]

I wonder if I put ground beef in one crock and potatoes and veggies in the other if I can make a type of Shepard's Pie. hmmmmmm
