I have been struggling to cook during the week because after we get home from work and daycare pick-up, 1) I have very little energy to decide what to make and actually cook and 2) time is short. By the time I cook something and we eat it, it can be way past Leela's bedtime. I'm trying to plan things ahead of time, so I looked up making baked potatoes in the slow cooker. I found a couple different "recipes" but I went with one that said coat the potatoes in oil, cover in foil and cook on low for 8-10 hours. So I did that in the morning before leaving for work - six potatoes with oil in foil in our crock pot. When I got back at the end of the day, they weren't cooked enough - still a little bit hard. So I'm going to call it a fail.
I don't think I'd want to try a weekday high temperature setting. The recipe for the high setting was to cook for 6 hours so I think the potatoes would get overcooked for our 10+ hours away.
