    I've made the butternut squash soup and the chicken curry w peppers and cabbage (minus the cabbage, LOL) from this site. Both were delicious - and I don't even like curry usually....

    Easy mi soto (Indonesian chicken noodle soup):

    4 chicken drumsticks/breasts
    2 carrots, chopped
    1 cinnamon stick
    1 tsp chinese 5 spice powder
    1 tsp ground ginger
    3 garlic cloves, crushed
    1 dried chilli, crushed (alternatively, use dried chilli flakes)
    1 chopped onion
    6 cloves
    6 cups chicken stock (I use chicken stock cubes)
    broccoli

    Put everything in crockpot and turn on. 1 hour before serving add broccoli.

    Have with noodles/pasta.

    Optional chilli soy sauce condiment to go with it:

    Bird's eye chillies (as many as you'd like)
    equal amounts kicap manis (Indonesian sweet soy sauce) and regular soy sauce
    Garlic (as much as you'd like)

    Blend all ingredients together and dollop on the chicken noodle soup.

    I make a super healthy vegan soup with chicken broth, beans (anyn kind will work, I used canned navy beans, rinsed and drained last time, but black beans or red beans work great), almost any kind of diced up veggie is great in there (I last used zucchini, green beans, onions, tomato, and red bell pepper). To add something to it I will toss in diced up tofu, brown rice, white rice, orzo, quinoa... whatever you're feeling. It's SO good for you. Any kind of seasoning works--I've done a curry flavored version, sometimes I'll use a more mexican mix of spices, usually use garlic.

    If it contains chicken broth, it isn't vegan. Sorry for being pedantic, but that's what I'm like.

    that's what i thought!!! lol I dont think that's being pedantic, its being accurate.

    love the ideas! i rely on my crockpot a lot because i work 10 hours a day and have two kids that are just as hungry as i am by the time we get home. nothing better than walking in and serving up our plates.

    I don't know if many of you use it but pinterest is a great help for me with recipes. they have a lot in the health and fitness catagory but also in the food and drink.
