@koiotchka – I’m actually cooking four different things with that list.

Potatoes will get microwaved and then broken up and doused in cream and cheese. (I have to get more shredded cheese before I can do that.)

Rice, barley, canned chicken, mushrooms, frozen peas and carrots went into the rice pot. I was planning to put the broccoli in there as well, but I ran out of room. I’ll cut the broccoli up later today and stick it in a container and freeze it for use later.

Not-yet-thawed chicken (grumble), pineapple, apples, and onion go into the crockpot to make tasty sweet-bright-sharp nommies. Rice will go in there once things are cooked down some, and some of the mushrooms will go in there as well. Shitakes are really good for this, better than the usual white button/porta bellas. Might also add a little soy sauce. Maybe a tiny bit of vinegar for a sweet/sour sort of thing. (Whatever I do with the extra stuff, this will happen tomorrow or late today, because the chicken is still not thawed.)

And the turnips will get sliced, fried, spiced, and doused in cream, butter, and cheese. (Again, need more shredded cheese before I can actually do that.)

I was originally thinking I’d add the turnips to the crockpot, but I think they’ll do better on their own. Turnips have a flavor that on reflection probably wouldn’t go well with the rest of what’s going with the chicken.
