It seems almost all recipes call for tomatoes.

Any suggestions on substitutions? Or more non-tomato recipes?
Try red bell pepper instead of tomatoes. Too, there are lots of good white chili and white lasagna recipes online.

Also, someone told me just the other day that a slow cooker and a crock pot are not synonymous. I don't know because I've never used either one but I'm hoping I get one as a gift this year for Christmas. So I'm not sure if substitutions would make a difference in recipes that are for a crock pot if you use a slow cooker instead.
