    4 chicken breasts
    2 cans Campbell's low fat cream soup (we use chicken, but you can use anything)
    1/4 cup cornmeal
    1 TSP flour

    Throw the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crock pot. Pour the 2 cans of soup overtop. Cook on low 8 hours or high 4 hours.

    1/2 hour before finished mix cornmeal & flour together. Sprinkle on top of mixture.

    The result? Yummy creamy chicken with a cornbread type crust on top. YUM.

    Bumping for later! Love this thread!!!

    A favorite in our house is chicken and rice. I have a big family so I tend to cook in bulk, however you can use only one of everything instead:

    Chicken breast (cut into chunks)
    2 cups of rice
    2 cans of golden mushroom soup
    3 can fulls of water (give or take)

    mix it all up and let it simmer. It is delicious. Add a salad and you have a meal. :)

    I've done ribs in mine. Slice up some onion, put in bottom. Next put in the ribs and pour your choice of bbq sauce on top. Leave on low for the day and by the time your ready to eat, the meat is falling off the bone. It's lovely.

    Some great ideas guys!

    My favorite - Chicken Curry

    2 chicken breasts
    1 tin chopped tomatoes or tub 0% fat yoghurt dependant on type of curry
    2tbsp curry powder (whichever type you like)
    chopped onion
    and I always add a quartered courgette/grated carrot or other veg to hand to add bulk

    Cut up chicken and mix with onion and veg (if using)
    Tip tomoatoes or yoghurt (or mix of both!) into bottom of pot
    Add dry ingredients and mix.

    I usually do this on low all day.... yum!

    Weight Watchers publishes a really great cookbook for crockpot food. I don't have the book, but have borrowed it from a friend. I'm sure you could find it online. The Pork Posole is awesome.

    I would recommend that everyone check out this cool blog.

    www.365daysofcrockpot.com

    She is a SAHM that cooks from her slow cooker for a year and reviews the recipes. It is great for ideas, but it's also good because she gives a review of the recipes too. Sometimes things I saw on her blog looked really good, but then I didn't have to wait 8 hours to find out if they were. She tells you when stuff is nasty. Check it out if you are a slowcooker!

    http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Slow-Cooker-Chicken-and-Dumplings/Detail.aspx

    instead of the dough make dumplings using the recipe on the bisquck box.
    add water to cover, and 2 teaspoons chicken boullion granules. use country crock plus calcium instead of butter.
    use 98% fat free cream of chicken. add w/e spices you like.

    let everything but dumplings sit for 5-6 hours (or however long youre at work lol) and drop dumplings in by the spoonful of dough 30 mins before serving.

    i have this under "jovias home made" here ...youll be amazed at the facts!

    my FAVORITE is salsa chicken.

    2 pounds of chicken breasts
    1 large jar of salsa
    1 can of whole corn kernels, drained
    1 can of black beans, drained

    put the chicken and salsa in the crockpot, cook on low for about six to seven hours.

    a half hour before, add the corn and black beans.

    it's sooo good! i make this at least once a week. sometimes i serve it in either
    a whole wheat soft tortilla or i'll use the flatout wraps.

    I made this last night. SO GOOD!!!
