Gotta Go Smell the Crayon Cans

---

Turn recirculation switch to "outside air" position 2. Turn fan on HIGH If you don't want to start the process a mile or 2 from your stopping point you could do it just before shutting off the engine. But just make sure to run the fan step 3 for about 5 minutes before shutting your engine off. If you still have the "stink" then you need to start the process earlier try 3 miles before stopping or run the fan longer than 5 minutes. I guarantee this process will eliminate the problem.

Been doing it for years. See, after all my reading, this is what I think, too. In late October, I'm going to have this stuff blow into my evaporator housing: Thank for the advice. I have a 10 min. If your drive to work is too short then just run the fan in the parking lot like I indicated before turning off the engine.

Just follow the advice I gave you above and see what happens. If you still get the stink then run the fan longer or start the process earlier before reaching your destination. Should I have it on the cold or hot temp setting? My wife also had a very strong crayon smell in her Beetle. Come to find out when it is very hot outside here in AZ F plus, the floor mats are letting off a weird crayon type smell. Where is this cabin filter located? I'd like to check that.

How many times do you think I should do this? Just till the smell is gone? Last edited by SalsaMan; at Quote message in reply? In order to be able to post messages on the NewBeetle.

Thanks so much for sharing this! I just boiled the potatoes, celery, and onion in a pot until the potatoes became mushy, but I had to add a significant amount of extra water. Hi, so you do not actually bake the potatoes? Until now I only made baked potato soup on a stove top with baked potatoes but I am ready to give it a try in the crocky.

Since the crock-pot does all the work, no baking is required. It makes the soup super easy to make with minimal prep work, still yielding great results! Do you let the potatoes sit in the pot for the four hours and let them slowly cook before you mash them? You just made my night! How long did it end up taking to cook? I added vegan bacon crumbles and the kids loved it, it turned out soo well! And use a laaaaarge pot or halve the recipe possibly… it makes a LOT of soup! I cooked this on the stove top and added another three cups of water on top of it.

I also used vegan butter and no parm cheese. Then I added some nutritional yeast and lentils for some added goodness. I also added some unsweetened original almond milk for added creaminess. Thanks for a great start to a great vegan soup! I subbed two of the potatoes with Yukon Holds, and loved it.

This is just what I was looking for! I actually added the cheeses and seasoning towards the end of the cooking process so I could measure the amounts for the recipe development but you can certainly season beforehand! Hope this helps and that you love the soup! I made this for dinner last night… my husband and I absolutely loved it!

I used chicken stock instead of vegetable broth and also used red skinned potatoes instead of the russet and left the skin on. I used a little extra dill weed, too. The soup smelled great from the moment I began chopping and putting the vegetables in the crockpot. The taste was just heavenly! Thank you for sharing this fabulous recipe! And High-five on the extra dill! I added extra too — I looooved the flavor boost it gave the soup! Worst case scenario you can add it in at the end if you think it needs a little something extra or try adding extra herbs or even a little extra cheese instead.

Also, I have a ton of red potatoes I need to use, could I use them instead? Will you be skipping the cheddar cheese as well or just nixing the parm? Since soups are uber forgiving, you will be able to adjust seasonings, broth, veggies and cheese easily, so if you wind up using too many red potatoes you can amp up the rest to compete. Thanks for the quick reply and great advice. I waited too long for the red potatoes so russett it is. I have all the veggies in the crock pot now. My mouth is already watering. Are you able to provide any nutrition info on the recipe?

One of my cousins is doing the Weight Watchers thing and needs the calorie count etc. I can, however, look up the main components individually for you if that helps. It will vary based on any add-ons you may choose to include and also the size of the potatoes you use in the recipe but hopefully this will help! Each medium potato is about calories so about calories total for the potatoes [keep in mind this makes 8 cups of soup and more if you prefer to have it thinner with additional veggie broth]. One large onion is about 60 calories. The cheeses total will be about calories but will vary a bit depending on what you choose [the label on your package will help give you an exact number!

I googled it and they predicted about 12 calories per cup and you would use three cups for this recipe. Ok now I need a nap after that.

Math and I are arch enemies. I believe you left out the milk in the recipe maybe purposefully? Anyhow, with milk and cheese, 1 cup of soup is calories. So glad you loved the recipe, thank you! The calculations from this comment were done a few years ago before the optional milk was part of the recipe, so I appreciate you recalculating it with the milk, thank you! So this is a perfect compromise! That and the ridiculously yummy lemon bars I just made for dinner tomorrow too..

I found your blog on Pinterest and I am sooooo happy I did. Your recipes are exactly what I need. Thanks and keep up the awesome work!

I do love adverbs, and adjectives too! Thanks so much for posting—this definitely hooked me in as a new reader! Oh this sounds so yummy! That is the best compliment ever! I just made this and all I can say is WOW! I will be making this on a regular basis. Let me know how it turns out! My readers would love it as well. I found you through Ask Anna and am so glad! Would love for you to share this at Meet Me Monday! I am glad I found you either way! I made it, and it was soooo good! I grew up on potatoe soup, and your version was so easy. Just what I needed this week with all my sick kiddos.

I just put it on, and we had it for lunch. Its good with SP too but its just way way superior with regular old potatoes for some reason — its like a memory in a bowl, ya know? It might be thick enough to keep his interest I hope! I am so glad I have brought back the potato into our lives. I usually just go for sweet potatoes, but sometimes a good potato soup is just realllly good. I cannot wait to try this—I think even my anti-soup son will like it. Life has been freaking crazy since we got the countdown gong — how are you!?

I dusted off my crockpot earlier this week and had several meals in it…what liberation: Glad to have one more recipe to try! Just made some confetti quinoa salad. Come check it out!
