    I made Turkey Santa Fe Zucchini Boats and had lots of filling left over, so I threw the leftovers into the slow cooker with a packet of chili seasoning, a can of beans (doesn't matter what kind), a small can of tomato sauce, and 3 fresh plum tomatoes, chopped. Cooked on high for 3 hours. Voila! Chili. Appropriate since August around here feels like late September.

    1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed golden mushroom soup
    1/2 cup chopped onion

    4 ounces cream cheese

    I didn't look thru the 16 pages of recipes, but a really good shredded beef recipe and very simple is:

    beef roast, 3-4 pounds,
    pkg of Zesty Italian dry dressing mix.

    sprinkle the mix on the roast. cook in the crockpot for 8-10 hours on low heat. When it's done, shred the meat and serve on buns. it'll create quite a bit of juice, but that's a good thing, that's what you want. don't let it cook dry. it's delicious. If you're doing a larger amt of meat, it's good to add a couple pork roasts in there as well just to mix up the taste a bit.

    In fact, I have 20# of beef/pork cooking right now, getting ready for my brother/sister-in-law's anniversary party for tomorrow. It smells divine!!

    This may not qualify (5 main ingredients + water and seasonings), but my mom used to make this all the time when I was a kid. I never cared much for ham, but I did like this. I never make it these days and haven't tried converting it into a healthier dish yet.

    Scalloped Potatoes with Ham

    - 3 pounds potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
    - 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
    - 1/2 cup chopped onion
    - 1 cup chopped cooked ham
    - 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
    - 1/2 cup water
    - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    - 1/4 teaspoon salt
    - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

    Place the potatoes, shredded cheese, onion and ham in the slow cooker and mix well. In a separate bowl, mix together the condensed soup, water and seasonings and pour evenly over the potato mixture. Cook on high for 4 hours.

    Here are few I like:

    Chicken & Lentil soup (more than 5 ingredients though): Two chicken breasts, two chopped tomatoes, two chopped carrots, two chopped celery stalks, two ounces fresh spinach, two cloves garlic, one small chopped onion, 1/2 cup red lentils, 1 tsp salt, pepper, 6 cups water. Cook on low for 8-10 hours. Serves 4. Add 2 tbs grated parm cheese per serving.

    Roast chicken: Put 3 sheets of balled up foil on the bottom of the crockpot and place whole chicken (seasoned however you like - and stuff herbs in the cavity) on top of the foil. Cook on low for 6-8 hours. I like to do this and then just eat the chicken throughout the next week in sandwiches, wraps, added to beans, soups, etc.

    Steel Cut Oatmeal: Before going to bed, I place a heat proof bowl directly into the crock pot and place a water bath around the bowl. Add the oats and liquid in the bowl (I also usually add some raisins and walnuts and cinnamon). Cook on low for 6-8 hours.

    Beef stew: Cube a pot roast and quick-brown the pieces on all sides. In the crockpot add the roast a couple chopped carrots and celery stalks, small new potatoes cut in half, chopped onion, a few cloves of chopped garlic, salt, pepper, 1/2 cup red wine, and about 6 cups of water. Cook on high for about 8 hours. During the last hour, mix 3 tbs of flour with a couple ounces of water and add it and about 1/2 cup of corn and a 1/2 cup of frozen/thawed peas to the stew.

    I can't take the credit for this one...it came from SkinnyTaste, but it was really good!

    1.5 lb chicken thighs (boneless)
    1 cup chunky salsa
    1 tsp salt or adobo seasoning
    1/2 tsp cumin
    1/2 tsp southwest seasoning

    cook on low for 4 hours....after the 4 hours, take out of the crockpot and shred chicken....put back in the crock pot, add 1/4 tsp cumin and let sit for about a half hour.

    It was really good! Keep in mind though, even though its a ST recipe, it still has 190 calories per HALF CUP...which isnt much if you put it on a salad or over baked chips.
