    this is delicious. i have made it
    Check out http://www.skinnytaste.com/search/label/Crock Pot Recipes

    The Crock Pot Santa Fe Chicken is particularly good and I prep it ahead of time and throw it in the freezer - then when I want to have it I just defrost and throw the contents in the crockpot! Easy Peasy!! :) One note though - if you are away from home a long time I would recommend substituting chicken thighs for chicken breast - the breast really dries out - even being submerged in liquid! And the calorie difference is negligible (less than 40 calories per serving of chicken).

    Edited for spelling error! :)

    what kind of timer did you buy? often I have to be away from home for 8 hrs but the recipe only needs 5-6 hrs in the crockpot...would love a timer but not sure where to buy or how it works... thx.

    I also use a site called food.com because all of the recipes there include the nutritional breakdown - including calories. It's a free site, and you can look things up like, "Low calorie crock pot meals," or "weight watchers" or whatever. I've actually found a lot of yummy, healthy stuff there! :wink:
