    I have a great 24 page pamphlet of great recipes and tips when it comes to using your slow cooker that I received from my nutritionist a year or so ago. What is really nice about it, is she has included the nutrition facts for the recipes so you know how many servings there are and the contents of each serving!

    If you would like me to send it to you, just give me an email address and I would gladly forward it.


    I would love a copy!!!! Thanks!!!!! knhall09@gmail.com

    This sounds DELISH!!!!!

    Also, my favorite crockpot recipe is Chicken Enchiladas. It is as follows:

    Crockpot Chicken Enchildas

    4-6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
    8 oz cream cheese
    2 cans enchilda sauce, red or green
    tortilla shells
    shredded cheddar cheese

    Place chicken breasts in crockpot, and smother with one can of enchilda sauce and the cream cheese (I just leave it in a block and dump the enchilda sauce on top). Cook on low all day. When ready to prepare meal, stir the chicken well....it will just fall into pieces, and the cheese and enchilda sauce get mixed together. It kind of looks disgusting, but I promise it tastes good.

    Spread chicken mixture down the center of softshell tortillas, and roll up. Place seam side down in a 9 x 13 inch casserole pan. You can fit six enchildas in the pan. Pour second can of enchilda sauce on top and cover with shredded cheddar cheese. Bake at 325-350° until heated through, approximately 30 minutes. If you make these ahead of time, you will need to bake longer.

    Serve with lettuce, more shredded cheese, sour cream, black olives, etc. to your taste.

    The leftover chicken mixture makes great chicken tacos, and this recipe freezes well. You can use low-fat or non-fat cream cheese and whole grain tortillas to make it healthier.

    Here is my latest favorite crockpot dessert:

    Apple Sauce

    Core peell ( I suppose you don't have to if you don't mind the peel) and slice a variety of apples (you can use whatever kinds you like I personally use about 5 different types in mine) - enough apples to fill the crockpot that you are using

    Throw in some lemon juice and cinnamon/all spice/apple pie seasoning/nutmeg whatever you prefer

    Turn that bad boy on and let her go on high for a few hours or low for a few more until the apples are as soft as you prefer them to be, I let mine go til they are mush, but some others I know prefer a more chunky apple sauce so they don't let it go as long.

    If you don't want to add lemon juice a little bit of water can be added if you like instead

    I use some sweet and some sour apples and I find that this combo requires NO added sugar and is plenty sweet (more golden delicious apples yum) :)

    ENJOY

    Put the frozen chicken pieces into your crockpot.

    The cooking time will depend on how thick your pieces of chicken are, and if they are frozen or not.

    I thought you weren't supposed to put frozen meat into a crock pot? I believe I read that both on MFP and on my Crock Pot instructions. I receive the largest ss Crock Pot brand one for Christmas and I defrosted 2 breasts in advance and cooked on low for 8.5 hours so then frozen would be like 15+ hours would it not?

    I've used my crock pot with thawed chicken and with frozen chicken. It is fine both ways. We didn't have a problem.
