    My MS Diet requires: no gluten, no dairy, no legumes, no red meat, and no refined sugar. To top it off I am allergic to tomatoes!!!

    But this is a yummy chicken stew that conforms to all my requirements!

    Chicken Stew

    boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    onion, chopped
    celery chopped or celery salt
    baby carrots
    salt (omit if you use celery salt)
    black pepper
    thyme
    water to cover chicken
    whole grain brown rice


    Amounts can vary depending on how much you want to make and the size of your crockpot. I cook everything together except the rice, then using 2 forks shred the chicken. Add cooked brown rice about 1/2 hr before serving. This freezes well and I usually make a very large pot full and freeze some for later.

    One whole onion, sliced into rings
    One whole chicken, cut up
    One to two bulbs garlic, separate cloves (you will have between 20-30 cloves)
    Salt and pepper
    Paprika
    1 TB Olive oil

    Layer onion on bottom of crock pot. Rub chicken pieces lightly with olive oil then sprinkle with salt, pepper and paprika. Put cloves of garlic on top (leave some with their skins, some without).

    Cook on low for 8+ hours or high 5-6. You will get fall off the bone chicken with a slight sweet taste from the roasted garlic. I serve this the first night with veggies or potatoes. Then take the leftover chicken, skin it and shred it. Now you have chicken for chicken salads, taco salads, enchiladas, tacos, soups, etc. And it's cheap!

    Definitely gona try this... Sounds yummy. Have you ever tried with boneless?

    slow cooker is my bff!!!!!!!! I've made apple butter in there, whole chickens, then the next day chicken soup, blackbean turkey chili, etc. I just don't really have recipes. I pull one online and then tailor it to my tastes. www.skinnytaste.com and www.skinnyms.com both have great slow cooker recipes.

    SLOW COOKER CHICKEN TACO SOUP

    I just found what I'm making this weekend. Perfect for the football game. I'll make it without beer as a) i don't keep beer in the house and b) lower calories.

    Beef stew -

    get some beef chunks cut into smaller chunks (I use 1 lbs of stew cut, then cut them into smaller pieces)
    I add 3 carrots, 1 onion, 3 celery stalks, 1 turnip cut like a potato, 1 potato (whatever other veggies you want)
    2.5 cups of water
    1 enevelope of beef stew mix
    1 beef boullion cube
    Salt/pepper if you want

    Leave all day.

    When it is ready, add a can of corn and/or green beans.

    Add 1 tablespoon of flour to thicken it. Add the flour and wait 10 minutes and it will thicken.

    It comes out to about 100 calories per serving for me but put it in as a meal to calculate it based on what you use.

    ok, i'm really bad at making gravy .... do you mix the flour with water first and then add ... or just throw the flour in the crockpot, stir and wait 10 minutes?
