give me some good crockpot recipes...

Re: give me some good crockpot recipes...

  • groovygrlgroovygrl member

    i've been cruising around this site lately and have made 3 things. ONe was a HUGE bomb (chicken & rice casserole type thing, omg yuck), one was ok (pork so not for you) and one was a little better than ok (corn & crab soup). I may give her another shot if I find something interesting. I think maybe I just don't like crockpot food in general though...

    https://crockpot365.blogspot.com/ 

    My favorite is to throw a couple frozen chicken breasts in there, dump a jar of salsa & a can of black beans in, cook on low for like 8 hrs. Put some frozen corn in there 30 min before eating, then serve w/ cheese or sour cream over rice.  I was a doubter on this whole salsa chicken thing until I made it, it's pretty good. I put it in a quesadilla for my kids hte next day...

    ANother one that is good but lots of that cream of whatever soup is a crockpot enchilada recipe that is on allrecipes.com I don't remember the exact name, sorry.

    GL! 

    ETA duh! how could I forget chili ;). poster below's sounds good! I make a variation of Chili By George! on allrecipes where I use ground turkey & crumbled turkey sausage & then my favorite part, add frozen corn at the end. mmmm

    White Chicken Chili w/ a kick 
     
    Ingredients:

    3 cloves garlic, crushed
    1 4oz can diced jalapenos (if you dare, I usually don't include this so DS can eat it)
    1 4oz can chopped green chile peppers
    2tsp ground cumin
    1tsp dried oregano
    1tsp cayenne pepper
    1 14.5oz can chicken broth
    3c chicken (4-8 breasts or breast tenders, depending how big they are, no need to be exact)
    2 or 3 15oz cans Great Northern beans
    1 can corn, drained (optional)
    1 can black beans, drained (optional)
    1/2 to 1c milk or cream

    Turn crockpot on to low.

    Add all ingredients but the milk/cream.  Stir.  Puree a 3rd can of beans and put it in there (optional). Stir, cover for 4 hours. Come back and shred the chicken with 2 forks. Add the milk or cream. Stir. Let cook for 2-4 hours more.
     
    If you're starting this in the morning and want it to be ready for when you get home from work, etc., you can just put everything in but the milk/cream and let it sit on low all day, and shred the chicken and add the milk when you get home before you serve.
     
    Serve with sour cream, shredded monty jack cheese, and/or tortilla chips.

    Crockpot Chicken Pot Pie

    4 frozen chicken breasts

    1 big can cream of chicken soup

    1 reg can cream of potato soup

    1 bag frozen mixed veggies

    5 potatoes diced

    Cook on high for 4-6 hours. 

     

    Cream Cheese Chicken

    1 package italian dressing mix
    1/2 cup butter
    2 lbs chicken breasts (3-4 breasts)
    1 can cream of chicken soup
    1 pkg cream cheese

    Turn slow cooker on high, put in butter. When butter has melted add in italian seasoning. Stir until mixed. Cut chicken into 1" strips, place in slow cooker and stir to coat. Cover and cook on high for 2 hours. (I take a wooden spoon and make the chicken flake, so it's shredded) Add soup and cream cheese. Stir to melt until smooth. Serve over egg noodles. (This makes enough sauce for us to have 2 meals. We freeze the other half of the sauce. We also usually add mushrooms.)

    I followed some of the other recommendations and added some frozen veggies and used chicken broth-it turned out really good and even my son loved it!

    We do a variation of this one.  

    1 can beans drained

    1 can corn drained

    1 jar salsa 

    3-5 chicken breasts

    (you can add onions or whatever other veggies you want as well)

    cook on high for 4 hours or low for 8.  Shred chicken.  Add 8 oz cream cheese, cook on high another 1/2 hour.  Serve over rice or pasta, as a dip for tortillas, by itself, etc.  It's super easy and delicious.

    Shredded Tri-Tip Sandwich

    Throw a tri-tip, can be frozen or thawed in with either a jar of salsa or some bbq sauce (I usually cut up green pepper and onion to give the bbq sauce a little extra flavor).  Shred about 30-45 minutes before serving.  I sometimes add some more salsa or bbq sauce to make it a little thicker.  Serve on french rolls.  When I do the salsa one (my fave), I add pepperjack cheese...yum!  So delish.

    Sorry pressed enter too fast!

    Someone shared a recipe when we were all on the tri boards and it has become one of my favorites--  3-4 lb roast, can of low sodium beef stock, a beer, and a can of French Onion soup.  Cook several hours and serve as a sandwich over hoagie rolls.  Super easy and great for a crowd.

    I also like cooking a whole chicken in the crockpot.  Just put the chicken in there, sprinkle salt and pepper over the top, and cook on low during the day.  The chicken is fall off the bone by the end of the cooking and you can throw it into any chicken dish (tacos, quesadillas, pasta, or use in a salad.)  I can cook one chicken at the first of the week and have most of my meals for the week already partially done.

    1.5-2 lbs of chicken breast (boneless, skinless)

    1 small can of fire roasted tomatoes with garlic

    1/2 cup salsa verde

    2-3 chipotles

    1-2 Tbsp of the adobo sauce from chipotles

    add cumin, coriander, garlic and cilantro to taste

    (I also add a little hot sauce because I like it hot)

     

    Cook on High for 4 hours and shred. Serve as taco meat, on nachos or over rice.

    I don't cook with recipes so all of the measurements are estimates.
