Crock Pot Moroccan Lamb Chops and Prunes

this is from lou seibert pappas' cookbook, extra-special crockery pot recipes, "time saving meals for the gourmet appetite", i have to add that tagline since this recipe fits and does not disappoint! this is delicious. cooking the lamb chops in spare liquid on low is as close to braising in a crockpot as i've seen. " i served it with a wonderful silver palate recipe 321104.
