    VKaylor you are my hero!

    Creamy Shredded Chicken

    4 chicken breasts
    one can cream of chicken soup
    1 cup salsa. This is if you want it to be a filler for tacos or taco salad--i leave this out when i want to turn it into something else, like shredded chicken for chicken salad sandwiches
    1/2 cup sour cream (FF, or sub in greek yogurt.) You add this in after you take out the chicken and shred it.--also can be left out if not doing the Mexican route

    This thread convinced me to finally replace my stolen (seriously, who steals a crockpot??) crockpot. If anyone else is looking for one, I got the Farberware one at Bed Bath & Beyond for $24 with a 20% off coupon...not bad.

    My first adventures will be:

    Refried beans http://allrecipes.com/recipe/refried-beans-without-the-refry/
    Which I'll then turn into bean & cheese burritos (which can be frozen!) http://neartonothing.blogspot.com/2011/02/frozen-bean-and-cheese-burritos.html

    And I just bought my first roaster chicken so hopefully it fits in the crockpot! Can't wait to make my own whole chicken

    Let me give you a REAL recipe for crockpot Chicken Curry. If it contains and apple and one spice, it is NOT chicken curry.


    3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast
    2 medium red onions, halved and thinly sliced
    7 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
    1/4 cup of minced ginger
    2 tablespoons curry powder
    1 teaspoon ground coriander
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    Coarse salt
    2 packages frozen green peas (10 ounces each)
    2 cups coconut milk
    2 tomatoes, diced
    2 carrots, diced
    1/4 cup cilantro leaves (optional, for serving)
    Directions

    In a 5-quart slow cooker, toss chicken, onion, garlic, ginger, curry powder, coriander, and cumin to coat. Season with 2 teaspoons salt. Cover, cook on high setting until chicken is fork-tender, about 4 hours (do not uncover while cooking).
    Stir in coconut milk, carrots, tomatos and peas; cover, cook until peas are heated through, about 20 minutes.
    Transfer chicken to a large bowl; shred with fork. Return to pot; toss with sauce.
    To serve, garnish with 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, if desired.

    My mouth just started to water... but play nice! :tongue:
