    Curry goat should be waiting for me when I get home, with carrots and sweet potato. Make something easy (Quinoa, couscous, buckwheat) and I should be good to go.

    Boneless skinless chicken breast and prego sauce! Amazing when served over long grain rice. Found that recipe off this site a few weeks ago. I love my crock pot!

    I'm brewing up my Crockpot Chai Tea tonight.

    8 black tea bags, paper tags removed
    8 cups water
    Fresh ginger, approximately 1.5 inch piece, peeled and cut into 8 pieces
    5 cinnamon sticks
    16 whole cloves
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/2 cup sugar (I eliminate this and sweeten with Stevia when I drink it)

    Put all ingredients in slow cooker, and brew on high for 2 hours. Strain mixture and discard solids. Add milk just before serving in equal portions (a.k.a. 1 cup milk to 1 cup chai tea). Can be served hot or cold. Refrigerate for up to 1 week.

    Pot roast -

    2lb roast
    6 potatoes diced with skin on
    small package baby carrots
    1 can beef broth
    1 package of onion soup mix


    I love the veggies best; that is why there are so many. I could actually do without the meat but the hubby and kids wouldn't go for that.

    Cannot wait to dig in to it tonight. I may cook some asparagus to go with it.

    Some steel cut oats.

    Add them to the crock pot with correct water levels. Some time I throw in some raisins or sliced almonds.

    Cook about 4 - 6 hours on med/low heat. (can be done overnight)

    After they finish, I scoop 1/2 cup of cooked oats onto a foil covered cookie sheet. (I usually spray with no stick spray) I freeze the "cookies".

    Once they are frozen, I pop them off foil, and place in a large zip bag in the freezer.

    Then during the week, put a cookie in a bowl, microwave for about 2 minutes. Add in sweeter, fruit, protein powder, or whatever you like - and breakfast is served.

    I like to add my extras later, because my tastes change from day to day. Somedays I add in peanut butter, or PB2 powder, some I may add protein powder, some I add fruit or nuts. I also add in different sweeteners, honey, or Splenda white or splenda brown sugar blends - depending on my preference.

    Nothing today, but over the weekend I made brisket with onion gravy, courtesy of eatingwell.com. I made mashed cauliflower and sauteed spinach with garlic on the side. So good! Even the leftovers were awesome last night.

    15 Bean Soup

    Soak the beans overnight.
    Place in crockpot.. Fill with water to cover the beans.
    Add 2 cans of diced tomatoes (your preference, this time I used fire roated)
    I cut up a smoked sausage and put it in there also...

    Cook on low for 6-8 hours... Super filling, and cheap.
