Thank you, Chris! I definitely seem to have overlooked the possibilities
of potatoes. I used to make a very nice oven-baked dish which layered
potatoes and mushrooms and garlic and some kind of creamy sauce. It took
over an hour in the oven so I bet it would work well in the slow cooker too.

The sweet potato idea is also promising. I'll try layering them with
normal potatoes and thinly-sliced onions.
