    What about just cutting a recipe in half or a quarter if you really want to try it?

    All I know is cooking dried beans is a real pain in the *kitten*, but a slow cooker would solve this.

    Good way to make a hearty bean + other ingredient dip... just add chicken and a jar of salsa and you've made something to put on some chips.

    I have a few go-to crock pot chicken recipes:
    Santa-Fe Chicken:
    Small Jar of Salsa (Your choice of flavor)
    1 Can Black Beans (Drained)
    1 Can Corn (Drained)
    Mix together, then place three chicken breasts on top of mixture
    Cook 8-10 hours on low
    Shred chicken and serve over rice or in tortillas.


    Rotisserie Chicken:
    1 whole chicken
    Pam Cooking Spray
    Seasoning salt of chicken rub (your choice of flavor - I prefer Cajun chicken rub)
    Ball up aluminum foil in the bottom of the crock pot, place whole chicken on rolled up foil. Spray whole chicken with Pam Cooking spray and sprinkle with seasoning salt or chicken rub. Cook 8-10 hours on low.
    Chicken is very moist and its cheap to make if you get the chicken on sale.

    We eat a lot of chicken as well and the kids really like these.

    If you are looking for easy, my husband's 3 favorites are: (both on low for 8 hours)

    BBQ Chicken--put in chicken thighs frozen or thawed (we usually only eat white meat, but the thighs stay juicier) and 1/2 jar of bbq sauce. It is delicious

    French Dip--bottom round roast, 2 onion packets, 2 cans reduced sodium beef broth. Shred beef and get some of the juice to dip.

    Both we usually eat, have for lunch the next day, and freeze the remainder for another week.

    The third is my absolute favorite--butterball boneless turkey breast. The slow cooker directions are right on the turkey (a little broth, and I sometimes add poultry seasoning if I have it). It is delicious, moist turkey.

    Today I made some chicken soup in my crock pot. I used:

    2 chicken breasts, chopped up
    3 gold potatoes, diced
    broccoli
    mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, green beans, corn)
    1 quart chicken stock
    salt, pepper, italian seasoning, sriracha

    I just threw the chicken, potatoes, stock, and seasonings in this morning, and about a half an hour before I served dinner I threw in the vegetables.

    I want to go to there! This sounds delicious.

    I need to try this!

    One of my favorites is Southwestern Chicken & White Bean Soup

    1 TBSP Canola oil
    1 lb Chicken breast (cut into 1-in cubes)
    1 can Chicken Broth (I use the Swanson 99% fat-free)
    1 cup Pace chunky medium salsa
    3 tsp minced garlic
    2 tsp ground cumin
    1 can drained white beans
    1 cup frozen corn
    1 med. onion (chopped, about 1 cup)

    Lightly brown the chicken in a pan with oil, then add to crock pot with all other ingredients. Cook on high about 4 hours or low for 6-8 hours. Makes 4 large servings or 6 smaller servings. If measured out in 4 servings, comes out to around 305 cal., 35g carb., 6g fat, 34g protein per serving.

    And if you like more veggies, sometimes I will add some sliced carrots to this.
