    I found this recipe on here a month or so ago and it was YUMMY!

    MOROCCAN Chicken and Lentils

    1 8 oz package baby carrots
    1 1/2 cups lentils, uncooked
    1 1/2 pounds FROZEN chicken breast tenders
    2 tablespoons minced garlic
    3/4 teaspoon salt
    2 teaspoons salt-free Moroccan rub (or 3/4 teaspoon ground turmeric, l/2 teaspoon ground red pepper, and l/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon)
    2 (14 l/4 ounce) cans fat-free, reduced-sodium chicken broth

    Place all ingredients, in order listed, in a 4 or 5 quart electric slow cooker. Cover and cook on high setting 5 hours. Or, cover and cook on high setting 1 hour; reduce to low setting, and cook 7 hours. Yield: 6 (1 cup) servings.

    Beef Stroganoff

    1-2lbs steak cut into strips ( sirloin seems to be the cut I prefer since it's leaner)
    1 can cream of mushroom soup
    1 can of milk
    1 can of water
    2 cups sour cream
    salt
    black pepper
    red pepper
    garlic powder
    dried onion
    finely sliced mushrooms
    egg noodles

    I pretty much eyeballed this one so I don't have exact measurements for the spices pinch here, dash there. You put everything in the crock pot except for the noodles. Cook on high for 4 hours. I personally prefer to boil my noodles vs putting them in the crock pot so I will do that. You could add the noodles in the last 30 minutes before you plan to serve if you add more water.

    Orange Beef
    2 pounds beef round steak, sliced or beef stir fry strips
    1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
    2 teaspoons ground ginger
    3 tablespoons honey
    1/2 cup orange juice
    1 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced
    1 green bell pepper, seeded and sliced
    6 green onions, sliced

    For absolute best results, marinate the meat the night before in a plastic bag with the sauce ingredients: soy sauce, honey, ginger, and orange juice. In the morning, dump the contents into an empty cooker and add the vegetables on top. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or until meat is fully cooked and super tender. Serve over rice with the crockpot juice.

    * can substitute beef for chicken *

    Spinach & Artichoke Dip

    1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
    1 (9-ounce) bag baby spinach, chopped
    1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
    1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
    1/4 cup fat free sour cream
    1/4 cup mayonnaise
    4oz fat free cream cheese
    1-2 tbsp chopped banana peppers

    Drain and chop artichoke hearts, and add to the crockpot. Scrunch the spinach and chop it the best you can---mostly try to get the long stems off if you can. Add to the crockpot. Add mayo, sour cream, creamed cheese and peppers. Top with 1/2 cup each shredded mozzarella and parmesan. Cover and cook on low for 2 hours. The spinach should begin to welt. If it hasn't, cook some more. When the spinach is totally wilted, take the lid off and add the other 1/2 cup of each cheese, and let it melt while the lid remains off. Serve with your favorite chips, sliced veggies, or bread cubes.
