    Got these from another MFP member : )

    Crockpot chicken tacos
    3 frozen chicken breasts
    1 can black beans drained and rinsed
    1 can rotel
    1 can corn drained
    1 package of taco seasoning
    Cook on low 8 to 10 hours (mine cooks on low for 8 and then the crockpot automatically goes to keep warm)
    Shred with fork when you get home. Serve in taco shells with your fixings or make nachos out of it (i'm guessing the nachos are far worse though with the chips)

    Crockpot BBQ Chicken Wraps
    3 frozen chicken breasts
    3/4 bottle bbq sauce (I just cover the chicken breasts fairly well)
    Diced onion (omit if you dislike)
    a little brown sugar
    Cook on low 8 hours or so.
    Shred with fork
    Serve on tortillas with a slice of cheese

    Crockpot chicken enchiladas
    3 frozen chicken breasts
    1 can enchilada sauce
    Diced onion (omit if you want)
    1 can cream of chicken soup (can be omitted so its a healthier meal)
    Cook on low 8 hours or so
    Shred with fork
    Wrap in tortillas and place in greased baking dish
    You can add jalapenos and olives inside tortillas if you like them.
    Cover with the leftover sauce from crockpot or get another can of enchilada sauce
    Bake at 350 for 20 minutes
    Sprinkle with some cheese (omit for healthier option

    Lately I just put in some beef a small amount of water or broth then add Tibetan hot sauce.
    Everything is better with Tibetan hot sauce on it.
    I get all the flavor I like, and don't cross contaminate the pans I use to cook my husband's vegetarian meals.

    Thanks for this - I am definitely going to give it a try, but with much bigger portions of meat. How did the mushrooms and pear go together?

    5-7 boneless skinless chicken breasts
    Any kind of seasoning you want.

    1) Put chicken breasts in crockpot, and fill enough water to slighty cover all the chicken breasts.

    2) Put as much seasoning as you want. I use Ms. Dash seasonings and anything with no salt.

    Cook on low for 6 hours.

    Take all chicken out and shred it up.

    That's plenty of chicken to eat for the week in many different ways. You can eat it over rice or noodles, or you can make a sandwich or wrap with it. It's a great way to cook chicken breast.

    I boil chicken all the time. I can't believe i never thought of the crock pot. DOH!

    I didn't know either :) . I read that it means "Bring Up My Post" - so if someone wrote, BUMP, they have previously posted on this topic. Click on their name and look at their posts that are listed on their main page.

    Haha. I thought it meant like fist bump! I must be a granny too!
