    Love the recipe but if you are really looking to shed pounds that meal is going to skyrocket your sodium levels. If you stay well under your sodium levels you will lose more weight and quicker. Mrs. Dash seasonings is the way to go. It is all salt free.

    So very true! I am addicted to sodium and struggle with this all the time...so use Mrs. Dash instead :)

    I make chili. Its low cal and high in protein.

    1 big can Hunts tomato sauce
    2 regular cans Hunts diced fire roasted tomatoes
    1 can kidney beans
    1lb ground beef
    1 large onion chopped
    1/4 c. garlic powder
    2 tablespoons salt
    1/4 c. chili powder
    1tablespoon cumin
    1 hot chili pepper (or more- depending on how hot you like it)

    Cook the beef with the onion and 1/2 the seasonings until brown and add to the crock pot with the rest of the ingredients. Add the rest of the seasonings and cook. :)

    I'm always up for a good crock pot recipe! I found this one on Pinterest and finally tried it out last night. It was AMAZING! I only cooked it for 4.5 hours and it turned out fine. I'm going to try this with buffalo roast next time. :drinker:


    Take-Out, Fake-Out: Beef & Broccoli {Crockpot}

    Yield: 4 servings | Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 6 hours and 30 minutes*

    Ingredients:
    1 lb. boneless, beef chuck roast, sliced into thin strips
    1 cup beef consumme or beef broth
    1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
    1/3 cup dark brown sugar
    1 tbsp. sesame oil
    3 garlic cloves, minced
    2 tbsp. cornstarch
    4 tbsp. sauce (from the crockpot after dish is cooked)
    Frozen broccoli florets (as many as desired, I believe I used almost 2 cups)
    White rice, cooked

    Instructions:
    - In the insert of the crockpot, whisk together beef consume, soy sauce, dark brown sugar, sesame oil, and garlic.
    - Gently place your slices of beef in the liquid and toss to coat.
    - Turn crockpot on low and cook for 6 hours.
    - When done, in a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and cooking liquid to create a slurry, pour into crockpot, stir to mix well. Cook on low for an additional 30 minutes to thicken up the sauce.
    - Toss in your broccoli florets then serve hot over white rice.

    *Note about cooking time: Your crockpot may differ in temperature than mine, I suggest cooking this for 4 hours on your first go-round of this dish. 6 hours in the crockpot seems to be giving a lot of people “shredded” beef instead of slices, so decrease cooking time by 2 hours and go from there. Mine turned out fine with 6 hours.

    baby carrots
    sliced onions

    cook on low for 6-8 hours. the Coke really makes the veggies have such a great flavor.

    I have a question, is the 1 can of mushroom soup, Cream of Mushroom? I want to make this because it looks super easy! :)

    not sure if i missed it or not but I use the slow cooker to make bar-b-que .. turkey bar-b-que
    I like barbque but I cut pork out of my diet over a year ago, so i came along a recipe for turkey
    it's quite similar to pork pulled or chopped barbque in the slow cooker.

    1 pack of turkey drumsticks (3) serves 2-3
    place in slow cooker with light seasoning (light sprinkle of kosher salt and Nature's Seasoning)
    fill with water and place on low i usually permit 8-10 hours
    remove drumsticks (probably are falling off the bone)
    drain slow cooker and wash out (will use again shortly)
    For the meat that stays on the bone remove and pull apart
    for the meat that fell off the bone pull apart (you can chop if you want)
    place back in the slow cooker and stir in bar-b-que sauce (store bought or your own)
    place on low for another hour

    I served this as sliders at the superbowl party and 7 out of 8 people didnt realize it was turkey ..

    I love my white chicken chilli: I cook 4-6 chicken breasts, then cool and cut into bite size pieces. In crook pot place chicken, add chicken broth (from store!), northern beans (I add a lot and use the Randalls brand from Krogers--already cooked and delicious)--I add two large glass jars Randalls beans, chopped onion (as much as you like), carrots (if you like--small diced), one packet McCormicks white chilli chicken mix, and the Secret ingredient: one jar GREEN VERDE sauce (in Mexican food section at Krogers). We love this recipe!!! Top with quacamole or fat free sour cream!!
    Also, look at book by The Crockin' Girls!!! It is cool, fun, youthful, and I love their books!!! can get on amazon of course! Enjoy!!

    Look on skinnytaste.com. It even gives you the calorie count, and I have tried a few and they have all been good!
