We are makinf ham and beans in the crock pot which is about 343 calories a serving. We also make some crockpot porkchops which are very low cal but high in sodium because it involves brown gravy mix and ranch dressing mix. It taste Fantastic though.0

I put a pork tenderloin (3-4lbs) or chicken breasts in the crock pot with about half water/half low-sodium chicken broth (probably about 2-3 cups total). Usually I do this before bed and let it cook all night (or about 8-10hrs) on low. Then you just spoon it out and shred. The meat will fall apart and be very moist. Then you can use it in tacos or you can use some BBQ sauce. I use Sweet Baby Ray's original. My 3 year old eats it up.0

Gina has a bunch but the carne guisada and the taco soup are the BEST!
Betty Crocker has a great Thai soup, and the kitchen has a really good tikka masala, but Slender Kitchen does a "slow cooker Sunday" series and they're usually pretty good.0 -
i really like putting short ribs in the crock pot and they are a pretty cheat "cut" of meat and they get so tender. I will sometimes blend soy sauce, pear, onion, garlic, and cook that then top over rice with cilantro but usually its just browned short ribs stock onion carrot garlic cooked all day then i serve it with roasted brussels sprouts and mashed potatoes. calorie content will depend on serving size.

Oops, it's Crockpot Chicken Enchilada soup! My best friend and I have made it alternatively and shared with each other for probably 3 years now. So good.0

I use my crockpot like 4x a week-this is favorite because you can use meat for anything

I had it in zucchini boats recently, over rice, with plaintains or by itself
this website has some really great ones0 -
Yesterday I put 2 frozen chicken breasts and 2 frozen chicken thighs into the crockpot with 1/2 can of fire roasted tomatoes, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, and cumin. Cooked on low all day and as someone said above it just falls apart. I put it on a tortilla with sauteed peppers and onions, and today brought leftovers on top of salad greens for lunch. I fed three adults and two teenagers (including a teenage boy!) for dinner last night with a ton left over.0

Skinnytaste is always my go-to, but I actually like the Slender kitchen picadillo a little bit better because of that spice from the chipotle and jalapeno. I always freeze it in portions and sometimes I eat it with sauteed slaw and make a picadillo style "crack slaw."0 -
I have tons of these. I use the crockpot 1 time a week or I make casseroles. It is cheaper and better to cook in bulk I think.
I have Chili Mac, Three Bean Chili, Pork Tenderloin, Chicken & Brocolli, and sooooo many more. I can email them to any one that wants them. I have emailed them to several members already. If you can open them in word they are yours..
Just send me a message with an email and I will shoot them out..0 -

I put the sauce items in first, place down the peppers/onion in strips, then meat into strips. Cook high 3-4 hours low 6-8.0 -
My fiance made this crazy concoction in the crockpot last night with a lb of boneless skinless chicken thighs, a lb of green beans, a half bunch of celery, mini hot peppers, bell pepper, beer, and jerk bbq sauce. I eyed him as he made it, but that food came out seriously amazing. So surprisingly good.0
