      My suggestion is my favorite website. You can search for "Slow Cooker" recipes but also other sections allow you to search for ingredients you really enjoy. Not all are healthy, but the nutritional info is provided:

      http://www.food.com/recipe-finder/all/slow-cooker

      Just be careful of sodium. Many recipes use condensed soup, which can be fine in moderation, but generally is not a great option. I've stopped using recipes for my slow cooker that have it. Good Luck!

      Awesome slow-cooker barbecue ribs:

      broil a few pairs of ribs in the oven for 5 min each side, then lay them at the bottom of the crock pot. Add

      1 C ketchup
      1 T worschestershire sauce
      1 tsp brown sugar
      1 diced onion
      1 cup of water

      cook on low for about 4 hours.

      Ok, sorry I am not going to read 14 pages of recipes to see if this one was used already...but I LOVE it!!! I also make more than I need and then have left-over tacos for a day or so, then pulled-pork sammies, and THEN pork fried rice. YES!!! I am also posting the salsa that I make with it. Enjoy and thanks everyone for sharing!

      Pulled Pork: (this is a big recipe...you can half it)

      4 lbs. boneless pork shoulder or boneless country style ribs (I buy the big package of boneless ribs from costco and use about half) I cut the ribs in large cubs to break down quicker.
      4 teaspoons of oregano
      4 teaspoons of pepper
      4 teaspoons of salt
      1 or 2 onions quartered

      All on high for at least 6 hours. The meat will get a bit crispy if you leave it in there a long time (many people like that)
      I skim off excess fat and then at the enf before serving I take out the onion remnants.

      Serve on corn taco shells with cilantro, lime, avocado and the following salsa. Yum!

      1 pound tomatillos (about 6 large), papery husks removed, rinsed
      1/2 large onion, cut into thirds
      2 serrano chiles, halved, seeded (I usually use two jalapenoes if I am serving to people who can't handle too much HOT
      1 tablespoon olive oil
      1 teaspoon salt
      1 cup (loosely packed) fresh cilantro leaves


      Preheat oven to 375°F. Toss first 5 ingredients in 8x8x2-inch glass baking dish. Roast in oven until tomatillos and onion are very soft, about 1 hour. Transfer contents of baking dish to processor and add cilantro. Puree until almost smooth. Transfer salsa to bowl. Chill or serve at room temperature.

      I know that someone mentioned putting chicken in with bbq sauce...but here's my take on it. :) At Target (at least in the ones with groceries) they have a BBQ Sauce by Archer Farms (target brand) that is called Hawaiian-style Barbecue Sauce...made with pineapple, orange and mango. It's got a little kick to it. I put chicken breasts in the crock-pot and coat it with the sauce...you can also add a can of pineapple...it's delish over rice! Found the recipe here....they have lots of other good ones too

      http://www.sixsistersstuff.com/2011/06/crock-pot-hawaiian-bbq-chicken.html

      It's actually in the crock-pot as we speak...my stove broke (actually melted in the back, lucky didn't burn my house down!), and we just ordered a new one but won't be here for a week, so I foresee lots of crock-pot and grilled meals in my future :)

      World's be green chili pork! Easily doubled too, depending on the size of your pot.

      1 pork sirloin tip roast ( I get them from Costco)
      1 onion all chunked up
      4 cloves of garlic, peeled but you can leave them whole
      1 can of your favorite green enchilada sauce (mine is Hatch - medium)
      Salt and pepper

      Toss it all in cook on low for 8 to 10 hours. Shred with two forks. I leave it kind of chunky though. Seriously will melt in your mouth. This is great for tacos, burritos, or as the star of an amazing taco salad. I have even used this pork recipe to make the filling for my Christmas tamales.
