    Looks great! We do one that involves stew beef, tons of veggies, spicy mustard, beer and bread crumbs mixed in. To die for!

    Oh my goodness, this thread is GREAT. Thank you guys!
  • www.eatingwell.com has some great low cal crock pot recipes. I have made the chicken and sweet potato stew, and I have the BBQ pulled chicken in the crock pot waiting for us to get home. The BBQ pulled chicken is very easy:

    2.5 Ibs of boneless skinless chicken breasts
    3 Tablespoons of cider vinegar
    2 Tablespoons of worchestershire sauce
    1 Tablespoon of chilli powder
    1 Tablespoon of Paprika
    2 Tablespoons of sugar free honey
    1 Tablespoon of reduced sodium tomato paste

    Combine all ingrediants, and cook on low for 5 hours.

    Eaten this twice in the last week,so good :-) once with chicken and once with pork fillet,served with sautèd potatoes. Nom.

    This is one of my favs from Fitness Magazine. I don't like ginger though so I don't use that and it still comes out phenomenal.

    Gingered Beef and Vegetables

    Makes: 6 servings

    Ingredients
    1 1/2 pounds boneless beef round steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
    4 medium carrots, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
    1/2 cup sliced scallions
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    1 1/2 cups water
    2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
    2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
    1 1/2 teaspoons instant beef-bouillon granules
    1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
    3 tablespoons cornstarch
    3 tablespoons cold water
    1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
    2 cups loose-pack frozen sugar snap peas, thawed
    Cooked rice

    Directions
    1. In a 3-1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker, combine beef, carrots, scallions, and garlic. In a medium bowl, combine the 1 1/2 cups water, soy sauce, ginger, bouillon, and crushed red pepper; pour over mixture in cooker.
    2. Cover; cook on low-heat setting 9 to 10 hours or on high-heat setting 4 1/2 to 5 hours.
    3. If using low-heat setting, turn to high-heat setting. In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and the 3 tablespoons cold water; stir into meat mixture along with bell pepper. Cover; cook 20 to 30 minutes more, or until thickened, stirring once. Stir in sugar snap peas. Serve with rice.
