Turn into warmed serving bowl. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve with boiled

Sylvia's comments: cook on HIGH? In a crockpot? Then what's the point? I
cooked it all day on LOW and everything was falling apart. I have a
similar recipe that includes apples and brown sugar that I like better;
this is great for someone who favors bitter tastes, I served it with
applesauce which cut the bitterness well and the result was delicious.
