I just purchased my first crock pot and I'm super excited to use it. Does anyone have any yummy, easy recipes they would like to share? Key word is easy..I'm not that great of a cook yet!
The only thing I do differently is cut up red potatoes and add them in instead of making mashed potatoes on the side. Saves time and dishes! That website has a ton of other crockpot recipes too.
I've got a yummy one--- I don't remember where I got it though:
Put 4 boneless, skinless, chicken breasts in the bottom of the crock pot with salt and pepper (as much as you like)
Place a slice of cheese over each piece of chicken (I use swiss usually but any kind you like will work)
Place a cooked piece of bacon on top of each piece of cheese.
Pour in one can of Campbells condensed cream of mushroom soup (no water)
Pour in one bag of frozen mixed vegetables
Top with 1 box Cornbread stuffing mix and top with a few pats of butter and cook on low for about 7-8 hours.
It turns out almost like a casserole and is SO quick and easy to put together. Just make sure you don't add any extra water of your stuffing will turn to mush

1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed French onion soup (I used the dry French onion mix with an extra can of beef broth)
1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer
Bit of Worchester sauce
6 French rolls
Mozzeralla cheese
Directions
1.Trim excess fat from the chuck roast, and place in a slow cooker. Add the beef broth, onion soup and beer. Cook on Low setting for 7 hours.
2.Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
3.Split French rolls, and cove with cheese. Bake/toast 10 minutes, or until heated through.
4.Slice the meat on the diagonal, and place on the rolls. Serve the sauce for dipping.

These are two I made last week. I LOVE my crock pot, and use it several times a week during the fall and winter months.
Put beans in crockpot & top with corn. Then add chicken & cover with salsa (do not stir). Cook on low 8-10 hours or high 3-4. Shred chicken & mix all ingredients together. Serve on tortillas with tomatoes, sour cream & cheese. YUM!!!!
Edit: I made the name of the recipe up...not really sure what it is called.
On days where I don't feel like cooking I'll put 3 frozen chicken breasts and about a half to 3/4ths cup of salsa in the crock pot and let it cook on low for 8 to 9 hours. When you get home the chicken will be so tender you can shred it and use it for chicken nachos, chicken tacos or add some black beans and put it over rice for a burrito bowl.
If you are on facebook, check out Crock Pot Girls. They have tons of recipes under pictures. I have tried 2 of them so far. I tried the to die for crock pot roast:

*Place beef roast in crock pot *Mix the dried mixes together and sprinkle over the roast *Pour the water around the roast *Cook on low for 7-9 hours
