  • 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.
