http://allrecipes.com/recipe/slow-cooker-beef-stew-i/detail.aspx In this one I cut the beef back to 1 pound and add in diced sweet potatoes, parsnips, rutabaga, turnips. It is SUPER good!! I also usually brown my meat the night before, but have done it the way written as well.

Hope this helps!

I made some lovely chicken tostadas last night with a can of Rotel and 4 chicken breasts. Put both in crock pot and add enough water to cover, cook on high for 4 hours. Topped them with shredded lettuce, black beans and spicy, spicy salsa.

The crock pot is often my best friend, I don't think I could live without it. Tonigth I cooked a pork roast tenderloin. I seasoned it with ground ginger, soy sauce, salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder. Put it in with a little raw honey and a small can of pineapple chunks. It was yummy, even the kids liked it.

Another family favorite is chicken breasts (I've even put them in frozen) with 1/2 cup chicken broth, 1/2 cup white wine, and a packet of Hidden Valley dry Italian dressing. If you don't have wine you could just use more chicken broth or water.

I'll try to think of some more, like I've said I use mine a lot, it's a lifesaver.
