    I tried this one that I found here on the board last week:

    Buffalo Ranch Crockpot Chicken

    1lb chicken breast (bonless/skinless)
    1 pkg Hidden Valley Ranch Dip/Dressing mix
    1 bottle Franks Hot WIng Sauce (ZERO CALORIES)


    Put the chicken in the crock pot, sprinkle the ranch on top and pour the Franks Hot Sauce on top (as much as you want)

    I put it on for 4 hours..

    Then I turned it into wraps usin FlatOut (its like a flatbread) (90 calories, 9 grams of protein and 9 grams of dietary fiber)...

    Added lettuce, tomato, wrapped it up.

    I make chicken noodle soup all the time!

    8-10 oz chicken
    1 bundle green onions
    1 can low sodium chicken broth
    3 cups water
    1/2 cup pasta
    2 cups spinach

    I season with only black pepper and garlic powder. It's 3g fat and 30g protein per bowl. (Makes 2 big bowls.) It's also really great with some shredded cheese mixed in, if you wanted more fat and protein.

    Undoubtedly the best chicken tacos you'll ever have are made in a crockpot.

    You'll need 1 or 2 lbs of chicken (I used thighs; they're cheaper), 1 jar of salsa and a packet of taco seasoning. Dump all three ing. into crockpot. Stir, if you're into that sort of thing. And then set your timer to low. You can do this with frozen or thawed chicken.

    Here's the original recipe: http://mychocolatetherapy.blogspot.com/2012/01/crockpot-chicken-tacos.html

    I dare you not to stand over the crockpot, eating it straight outta-the-pot with a fork!!

    I make what I call "White trash BBQ".... it is actually a former WW receipe...

    Four frozen boneless skinless chicken breasts
    1 cup of ketchup
    1 can of Coke/ Pepsi (leaded... not diet)

    Chick in the crock pot. Dump the soda in, dump the ketchup in... you can stir a little if it makes you feel better.

    Low for 8-9 hours. A half hour before you serve mix it all up.

    Seriously yum.

    My wife just got a new job about 5 minutes away from home (as opposed to her last one which was an hour each way), so she's going to be cooking a lot more delicious and healthy crock pot meals for us. Last week we tried Skinny Taste's sweet barbacoa pork found here: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/01/slow-cooked-sweet-barbacoa-pork.html

    We're probably going to have to try some of these recipes.

    My crockpot is on as I type...3 chicken breasts and half a packet of low sodium taco seasoning. I will shred it and put it in high fiber/low carb tortillas with beans, lettuce and salsa...can't wait! Smells delicious!

    I made this a few weeks ago and it was a huge hit. I'm making it again tomorrow. So freaking good as taco filling. Lots of sodium but only about 250 cal/serving. The recipe listed below is a total of 1513 cal, 65 carbs, 9g fat, 276g protein, 21g sugar, and 6346mg sodium(lol). I split it into 6 servings and ended up eating 2. It's likely less than that since your not going to eat all the salsa you use to cook with.

    http://www.pipandebby.com/pip-ebby/2011/11/18/slow-cooker-cilantro-lime-chicken.html

    Ingredients:
    24-ounce jar medium salsa
    Juice from one lime
    ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
    1.25-oz. package taco seasoning
    2 jalapeno peppers, finely chopped (optional)
    6 boneless chicken breast halves, defrosted

    Directions:
    1. In a slow cooker, mix together the salsa, lime juice, cilantro, taco seasoning and jalapenos.
    Add the chicken and coat with the salsa mixture. Allow the chicken to cook, covered, in the
    slow cooker on Low setting for 6 hours. Serve chicken with salsa mixture spooned over top,
    or shred and use as a taco filling.
