To the crockpot, add drained beans, diced tomatoes, corn, cumin, oregano and stir.Add the chicken breasts; cover and cook on low heat for 4-6 hours.

Remove chicken and shred with two forks. Add chicken back into the soup, adjust salt and cumin to taste. Serve in bowls and top with fat free sour cream, cheese, scallions and cilantro. You can also top with avocado or crushed tortilla chips. Enjoy!

Apple Sauce

Ingredients:


• 8 medium apples (Use a combination of Golden Delicious, Honey Crisp, Fuji, Gala, etc.)
• 1 strips of lemon peel - use a vegetable peeler
• 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
• 3 inch cinnamon stick
• 5 tsp light brown sugar (unpacked) - or agave

Directions:

Peel, core, and slice the apples.
Place them in the slow cooker. Add the cinnamon stick, lemon peel and brown sugar.
Set crock pot to low and cook for 6 hours. Stir apples occasionally, apples will slowly become a delicious applesauce. Remove cinnamon stick and use an immersion blender to blend until smooth or if you prefer a chunky sauce, leave sauce intact.

Makes 3 cups.

Thanks for the great ideas.

other random things I make are:

Pork loin with a bottle of Stubbs marinade and let cook all day. Then I shred it and use for tacos, enchiladas, salads, burritos.

Chicken, black bean, salsa and let cook, shred the chicken and use for same as above.

I make all my soups in it. throw everything in and just let cook.

I also make my beef roast in there. veggies and all.




I used to make this awesome berry cobble but lost the recipe and miss is sooo much! so if anyone has one, I'd love to have it!

Thanks for all the great recipes everyone!!!

Creamy Italian chicken

1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast
1 packet zesty Italian dressing mix
1 can 98% FF cream of mushroom( or cream of whatever you want)
1package FF cream cheese

Place chicken in slow cooker. Mix dressing mix with 3/4 c water. Pour over chicken. Cook on high for 3 hrs or until chicken shreds. Remove chicken before shredding. Add soup and cream cheese. Mix well. It will be a little lumpy. I like to lay out my cream cheese about an hour beforehand. Shred chicken and add back to pot. Simmer on low for 30 or so minutes until warm all through. 6 servings.

It is great with veggies added in or rice. Or serve over rice with veggies on side. This is my go to recipe when I can't think of anything else I want.
