  1. I have a lot of the following, which I keep meaning to cook, but can't
    be bothered -

    Various beans
    Brown rice
    Various lentils
    Split peas
    Soya pieces

    I was thinking of cooking quite a lot of it in one go inside a slow-
    cooker, then freezing it.

    My dilemna is timing. Would this work -

    Beans ~ 2.5 hours on high, 4 on low.
    Rice ~ 1.5 hours on high, 4 on low.
    Soya ~ 1 hour on high, 4 on low. (Same for split peas)
    Lentils ~ 45 mins high, 4 on low.

    What I would do is once the beans were on, add in the other items at
    various time intervals. (I appreciate the beans would require
    overnight soaking.)

    Regards, Robert.

    Sounds long. For all of it. Especially the rice.
    Brown rice needs about 45 minutes to cook.
