2 lbs fresh green beans. 1 lb ham steak (cubed) w/ bone thrown in pot too. 1 large onion and 1 tub fresh mushrooms chopped according to preference. 1 small bag baby carrots (each carrot cut at least in 1/2). 1 bay leaf. 2 Tbsp minced garlic. 1/2 tbsp pepper. 1 cup water. Put on low and cook 6 hrs. Serve over 1/2 cup brown rice or eat as is or w/ side of corn bread.
______________

Bag of frozen boneless and skinless chicken (I like thighs but breast works too), 1 can corn (rinsed) or equivalent frozen, 1 can black beans (rinsed), 1 large onion, 1 tub mushrooms, 1 or 2 tbsp garlic, 1 jar salsa of your choice. Put on low and cook 6 hours (approx). I shred the chicken in the pot before serving. There will be lots of juices in pot so drain or use...you know...whatever works for you. Serve over 1/2 cup brown rice or eat as is.

Another great one is to throw a couple of skinless boneless breasts into the pot, bury in your favorite veggies - zucchini, green beans, eggplant, Kalamata olives, fresh tomatoes, and then pour in a jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce - stir and then cook on low for 8-10 hours - 5-6 hours on high.

Serve over pasta or your low carb alternative of choice.

I put 3 chicken breast in with a can of salsa on low over night for 7 hours. Then i take the chicken and it just falls a part and i have it in a salad with avocado, tomato and a hummus salad dressing. it's delicious and takes no effort to make. (and then i have 2 meals out of the 3 chicken breasts)

basic split pea soup is so good. celery, onions, garlic, carrot and a couple of bay leaves. i like to bury a small smoked hock in the soup while it cooks, but bacon works if you have nothing else.

and it's amazing what a difference it makes if you use pork stock instead of just water. i have access to bones so i make stocks in the crockpot as well. they're so worth having.

This sounds good but the link didn't work for me.

My favourite thing to make in the crockpot is a buttload of pulled pork made with honey, liquid smoke, molasses, jalapeños, root beer, and spices. Perhaps not the healthiest but I find it's the best method of making pulled pork in the kitchen! It feeds the boyfriend well enough plus I can always toss the leftovers in portions in the freezer for when I'm craving that.

Here are the ingredients... guess you can't share the recipe generator...
