Slow Cooker Hawaiian Haystacks

One of my all time favorite meals is Hawaiian Haystacks. I have requested them on birthdays and other special occasions. Now that I cook for my little family, I love making them even more because they are super easy especially when you make them in the slow cooker! These make a great family meal because everyone can pick and choose toppings which might be the best part (wink, wink). 

I try to have a good variety of toppings, but really the sky’s the limit. I always love these toppings:

• green peppers or red peppers
• olives
• pineapple
• cheese
• tomatoes
• crunchy noodles
• celery
• almond slivers
• peanuts
• green onions

Anything you think will taste good, go ahead and pile it on top. What would you add to the list?

This rice is served over steamed rice and is a yummy way to get fruit, veggies, protein all in one meal. Plus, the leftovers taste just as good or even better the second day.
