THinking about eating more clean. My schedule is kind of crazy and am interested in some crockpot recipes so they will be ready by the time I get home.

I will most likely use brown rice or whole wheat pasta as part of my main dish.. but would like some recipes using fresh (or frozen if I have to) veggies & meats --with low sodium sauces or lots of spices.


Any or all recipes would be appreciated!!

Eat Clean Slow Cooker Recipe
Spicy Lemon-Turmeric Chicken and Vegetables
Serves: 6

* 1 tablespoon ground cumin
* 1 tablespoon paprika
* 1 tablespoons turmeric
* 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
* 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt, plus more to taste
* 1 whole lemon
* One 3 1/2 pound free-range broiler/ fryer chicken skinned and trimmed of excess fat, rinsed and patted dry
* 1 large onion, chopped
* 5 cloves garlic, chopped
* 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
* 1 pound carrots, chopped
* 2 red bell peppers, chopped
* 1 can (14 ounces) fire roasted crushed tomatoes
* 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil


1. In a small bowl, mix together the cumin, paprika, turmeric, cayenne pepper and salt. Add the juice from one whole lemon (reserving the lemon rind) and mix well.

2. Using your hands, apply the spice mixture generously all over the inside and outside of the bird. Stuff the cavity of the chicken with half of the onions, half of the garlic and half of the cilantro.

3. Place the remaining onions, garlic and cilantro in the bottom of a 5 or 6-quart slow cooker. Add the carrots, bell pepper and crushed tomatoes. Stir in the extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt to taste. Place the chicken on top of the vegetables. Cover and cook on low for about 7 hours or on high for approximately 4 hours, or until the meat pulls easily away from the bones.

Serve warm.

I love my crockpot!!! Here is the easiest low fat BBQ chicken recipe. 3 ingredients!

Shredded BBQ Chicken

2 pounds boneless chicken breast (I use 1 package of Tyson which is about 2 lbs)
1 (18 oz) of your favorite BBQ sauce - I like Sweet Baby Rays
1/2 onion chopped

Combine into crockpot on low for 6 hours. After about 6 hours, you should be able to easily shred the chicken. Then let cook for another 1-2 hours on low, or until chicken is nice and tender.

This is great on a low carb wrap, bun, or even just plain. Add a veggie and you have a great meal.

****There are also low sugar and light BBQ sauce options.

***This recipe can be doubled. I make a huge batch on the weekend to have easy dinners ready, and then I freeze the extras.

Enjoy!

That's what I'm talking about lol. Easy!!

Easiest and tasty chicken.

4-5 Chicken Breast and top with salsa.
Cook on low for 6 hours....

You can eat it plain or put it over brown rice. Yum...

(Variations include - a cup of black beans or other veggies...)

Sounds really easy and healthy ... thanks for sharing.

Clean Eating Slow Cooker Pineapple Chicken

(Makes 4 servings)


Ingredients:
2 large chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
1 (12 ounce) jar of your favorite clean salsa
4 small raw zucchini, halved, quartered, then sliced (shredding works too)
1/4 medium, fresh pineapple


Directions:
1.Turn on slow cooker to the low setting and put in the chicken and salsa. Cook for about 4-6 hours. Slow cookers vary, so base the time on that. The chicken should fall apart easily when finished.
2.Shred the chicken using two forks and mix in your raw zucchini and fresh pineapple.

Nutritional Content:
(Data is for 1/4 of the recipe)

Please note: I was surprised to find that this dish was so high in sodium. Most of the sodium in this recipe comes from the salsa. If this is an issue for you, find a clean, low sodium salsa and this will magically become a lower sodium dish!
