    I just made potato soup last night and it was wonderful!

    5 lbs potatoes cut into quarters with peel on
    4 cups chicken stock
    1 onion chopped

    cook in crock pot on high for 5 hours or low for 10. Once done add 16 oz of creme cheese ( 1/3 less fat works great) and blend until creamy. You can add rosemary, bacon, chives, and cheddar cheese for garnish.

    3 -4 garlic cloves, minced
    1 -2 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely chopped
    1 (10 ounce) package frozen spinach
    1 tablespoon curry powder (to taste)
    1 teaspoon ground cumin (to taste)
    1 teaspoon ground coriander (to taste)
    1 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds (to taste)
    red pepper flakes (to taste)
    ground cinnamon (to taste)
    4 cups low sodium vegetable broth
    water, as needed

    Directions:

    1. toss it all in there and cook on low 6-8 hours. check water level a few times to make sure lentils don't burn, add water if needed.

    Crockpot Salsa Chicken

    4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    1 (16 oz) bottle salsa
    1 packet or 2 teaspoons (I used 2 tablespoons because I love flavor) taco seasonings --I make my own and you can find that recipe on Pinterst

    Mix the seasoning with the salsa and pour it on the chicken. Let it cook all day until it shreds easily --about 5 hours or so, longer if you cook it on low.

    We like it with tortillas and taco fixings, but you can serve it anyway you wish. Freezes well too.

    A buddy of mine does a passable faux BBQ pork butt. You get a boston butt, coat it with a dry rub of your choice, add sliced onion, sliced garlic, a couple bay leaves, enough water to cover half the butt and a small amount of liquid smoke. let it go on low for 8 hours or so, turn it over half way through. I also like to sear the butt before it goes in the pot, gives a bit of texture since you aren't going to get any bark.

    I make the Salsa Chicken like someone else posted. My version:
    2 frozen boneless/skinless chicken breasts
    1 cup salsa
    half an onion (chopped)
    handful of shredded carrots
    2 stalks celery (chopped)

    My chicken is always perfectly done after 3 hours on high, 4.5-5 hours on low, so I usually prep it early then turn it on low at lunch (noon) so it's ready easily by 6.

    My favorite Crockpot meal is more of a method:
    frozen chicken breasts
    chopped onion/carrots/celery/garlic
    1 can of cream of mushroom (or celery or chicken or broccoli cheddar or... etc) soup
    1/3 can of water
    dash of salt
    lots of black pepper

    Cook on high 3hrs or low up to 5-6hrs. I break the chicken into smaller pieces when done, and we put it over a starch- rice, baked potatoes (I do mine in the microwave), pasta, it's even good with a piece of toast. :) When I'm trying to cut back on carbs, I eat it over steamed broccoli or roasted zucchini. Reheats very well, so we don't mind leftovers.

    ETA: The low-sodium and low-fat cream soups work just as well as the regular kind. I always use whatever I have on hand!
