How about vegetarian or vegan crock pot recipes?

Crock Pot Potato Cheese Soup was posted earlier and is vegetarian. I find that most vegan/veg crock pot recipes (especially those with white beans) can't cook as long as a chicken or meat dish. The beans will breakdown too far and most meat subs will dry out. I make white bean kale soup on the stove and it takes only 1hr with all prep.

This vegan chili could be made in crock pot: http://veganchicksrock.blogspot.com/2008/03/lentil-chili.html

Undoubtedly the best chicken tacos you'll ever have are made in a crockpot.

You'll need 1 or 2 lbs of chicken (I used thighs; they're cheaper), 1 jar of salsa and a packet of taco seasoning. Dump all three ing. into crockpot. Stir, if you're into that sort of thing. And then set your timer to low. You can do this with frozen or thawed chicken.

Here's the original recipe: http://mychocolatetherapy.blogspot.com/2012/01/crockpot-chicken-tacos.html

I dare you not to stand over the crockpot, eating it straight outta-the-pot with a fork!!

How long do you cook it for? This sounds sooooo yummy!

I found 99% of crock pot recipes have so many calories and sodium because everything has to be cooked in sauces. If you cook in water there is no taste. I don't use them. Just me.

I do a crock pot Chicken stroganoff:

2-3 Chicken breasts - frozen,
1/2 pakage of Onion soup mix (I actually use 1/2 pkg due to sodium)
98% fat free cream of mushroom soup (+ 1/2 can water)
Onions
Mushrooms
16 oz Fat Free Sour Cream.

Put frozen chicken in the crock pot, top with remaining ingredients, and allow to slow cook all day (I usually cook on low for about 8-10 hrs). Once done, cut up the chicken breasts into bite size pieces (sometimes I shred it), and pour over your choice of either brown rice or whole grain noodles. I don't recommend putting the noodles to cook with the rest, the noods always get over done...

This ^^^^
Thank You for this recipe, :flowerforyou: it is soooo goood! The only change in the recipe I made was instead of sour cream subbed with plain Greek Yogurt not the low or fat free kind. I have to watch my sodium and keep it at 1,500 or lower so only used the same amount of onion soup mix as you said.

To people who use calorie/carb free vegetable Shirataki Noodles, You will love this recipe. After the chicken was done in the crockpot from unfrozen state so it did not take that long, the noodles were prepared separately, rinsed throughly to remove smell of liquid they are packed in, blotted dry in towel to remove more moisture and dried them out in a skillet between 7-8 minutes. I discovered when noodles stop sizzling they are dry and ready to be added to recipes. For this recipe the noodles had fresh minced garlic added to give them flavor.( finallychelle describes in a post use MFP search under Shirataki noodles) the sauce was combined with the noodles. I just ate the chicken stroganoff recipe for lunch and it is so delicious! I am going to use many of these Crock pot recipe posts for the noodles and other low carb pasta's and rice.

I am looking forward to my leftover Stroganoff gravy mixture and putting it over low carb dream Field pasta for next meal. This recipe is a winner in my opinion I highly recommend it as it can be put over any pasta or rice or if potatoes are on your menu it would be awesome over mashed potatoes. I love my Crockpot and can't wait to try more of these recipes. Thank You for everyone who adds a recipe to this OP Post. Thanks OP for asking for the recipes.

I like to make Sausage and Peppers in mine.

1 package turkey sausages (5 links)
2 green bell peppers, sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 onion, sliced
3 cloves, minced
2 cans diced tomatoes
Italian seasoning

Put sausages in the bottom of the crock pot. Add the peppers, onion, garlic and diced tomatoes. Sprinkle with seasoning. Cook on low for 6 - 7 hours. You can serve it over noodles or rice, or just eat it without.

You can add more vegetables to this, too. I've added slices of zucchini.
