    I love my crock pot - makes life so easy! And it makes it super easy to shove veggies in everything! I start by making a bean loaded ground turkey chili that whips up a weeks worth of lunches with enough for a back up in the freezer (about the size of a large wonton soup container). When it's done I first remove the back up & add 2 cups of frozen mixed veggies; every day I eat a bowl of chili I replace the amount eaten with a cup or so more of mixed veggies. By the end of the week it's pretty much a veggie bean stew/chili. Years ago I bought the Cooking Light Crock pot cook book - I just Googled for it & found this link:

    http://www.cookinglight.com/food/top-rated-recipes/slow-cooker-favorites-00400000038588/

    105 Slow-Cooker Favorites - good place to start. I love their recipes, all about healthy substitutions and portion control not FORBIDDEN foods ;)
    Good luck & enjoy!

    As I type I have 4 thin sliced chicken breasts on top of 4 diced potatoes, a bag of baby carrots, sliced stalks of celery, and 1/2 of a chopped onion. I put a small can of cream of chicken in there as well. I seasoned the whole thing with low sodium Ms. Dash, pepper, and garlic powder. Not really following a recipe, hope it tastes ok!

    Any replacements for "Cream of...."? Its so HIGH in sodium.

    Buffalo Ranch Chicken

    1 lb Chicken breast
    1/2 bottle Franks Hot Sauce (NO CALORIES)
    1 package Hidden Valley Ranch (the powder)

    Put the chicken in the crockpot, then Franks Sauce, and sprinkle the ranch over it....not sure how long because we all put it on for different times. Since I am gone all day I put it on low (10hours)

    I have made wraps out of it and topeed salads....it is sooooooooo EASY, low cal, and healthy

    I made it for my entire office one day...everyone loved it

    This is one of my faves as well!! YUM you can make wraps out of it, sammies, or over salad!

    Wow I tried one today that turned out great, Vegetarian French Onion Soup. The crockpot caramelized the onions perfectly, and my husband, daughter and I just gobbled the soup down for lunch. At 500 calls per serving when I entered into MFP, and 7 g of protein. I'm stuffed!
