    Hello I just came across this web site and decided to join. I would like to share this Crockpot recipe that I' found online when i did the WeightWatcher program.

    Ingredients
    1 lb chicken breast, uncooked, frozen, boneless, skinless
    1 (10 3/4 ounce) can 98% fat-free cream of chicken soup (feel free to use the cream of mushroom here instead)
    1 (16 ounce) container nonfat sour cream
    1 (1 1/4 ounce) envelope onion soup mix
    Directions
    1Place the frozen chicken in the bottom of a crockpot.
    2Mix the other ingredients together in a separate bowl and pour it over the chicken.
    3Cover and cook on low for 7 hours

    I love it:) Very yummy !

    I did this for my wife yesterday with some egg noodles. It was good, I was happy. It was slightly dry, so I would recommend adding a little water. Next time, we are going to add some fresh mushrooms about 30 minutes before we eat.

    I just made the chicken drumsticks in the crock pot with the barbeque sauce. Delicious! How do you calculate the calories for the chicken?

    WHITE CHICKEN CHILI

    1 box of chicken stock (32 oz)
    3 can of white, (great northern), beans, left undrained
    5 cups of pre cooked chicken
    1 jar of salsa (16 oz)
    8 oz of shredded pepperjack cheese, or your favorite blend
    2 tsp of ground cumin
    2 cloves of garlic
    pepper to taste
    Garnishes of your liking

    (NO SALT BECAUSE OF THE SALT CONTENT IN THE STOCK)

    Place all of the ingredients in a crockpot and cook on high until the cheese is melted. Usually about 4 hours so all the ingredients can mix together. This is a fabulous chili and is great as left overs.

    TEQUILA PORK

    1 (4 lb) pork tenderloin
    1/4 cup of tequila (alcohol cooks out)
    1 lime, juiced
    2 tsp of Mrs Dash original seasoning
    1 (4 oz) can of diced green chilies

    Place the pork tenderloin in the crockpot. Pour the tequila and lime juice over the pork. Sprinkle with the seasoning and top with the green chilies. Cook on low for 6-8 hours. You can either cut this into pieces and have with a side dish and a vegetable. But, I like to take two forks and shred it to pieces and then serve it with tortillas and standard taco toppings or over corn chips as nachos.

    PORK Carnitas

    2 pounds pork shoulder
    1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (about 1 large orange)
    1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (about 1 large lime)
    7 cloves garlic (whole intact)
    1/2 tablespoon kosher salt
    1 tablespoon cumin
    1/2 cup beef broth
    corn tortillas
    sour cream, salsa, sliced avocado (optional)

    The Directions.

    Use a 6 quart slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the salt and cumin. Rub mixture all over the pork, then plop into the slow cooker. Add whole garlic cloves. Squeeze on the citrus, and pour the beef broth evenly over the top.

    Cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until the pork shreds quite easily with a fork. If your meat is still fully intact after 8 hours, remove and cut into chunks, then return to the crock and flip to high for about an hour or two.
    Shred meat fully and serve on warmed corn tortillas with desired toppings.

    I tried the salsa chicken everyone has been mentioning and it was great! I added Mexicorn to it though.


    Here is my recipe for BBQ Pulled Chicken

    Serves 4

    2 Chicken Breasts
    10 Tablespoons of BBQ Sauce (I use sweet baby ray's honey bbq)
    6 oz of Diet Dr Pepper (half a 12oz can...you could probably sub diet coke)

    Place chicken in crock pot. Pour 5 tablespoons of sauce over each breast. Pour in dr. pepper around breasts.
    Cook on low for 6-8 hours. Shred chicken and stir.
    About 150 cals or less per serving depending on what sauce you use,how large chicken, ect.

    This is to be served on toasted bun or bread (not included in calorie count). I like to sprinkle a little cheese on top as well.

    the salsa chicken works awesome with pork too, just substitute pork chops for the chicken
