Slow cooker recipe suggestions?

Hey! So I am getting a slow cooker as a gift from my work for being with them for so long, and I have never cooked with one. I am so excited to try this!
I am a pescetarian (meaning vegetarian almost but the only meat I eat is seafood). I cook for the rest of the family sometimes too though and they eat meat so if it's big chunks of meat, I'll pick it out.
What are some quick, easy, inexpensive recipes I should try?! Any suggestions?

So, I know it is the wrong season for this, but I love this soup. http://www.skinnytaste.com/slow-cooker-blissful-butternut-squash/
You can also make apple butter and pumpkin butter in your crockpot, and yogurt (although I just do yogurt on the stove)
I really like this website for recipes. http://www.recipesthatcrock.com/ A lot of them aren't that healthy but they are all tasty. Try beans for your category. That will get you some good vegetarian recipes.2 -
Pumpkin butter?! Oh my lanta I'm excited! Thanks I will try these out!0

Try making soups or fish/seafood curries (here there's prawn, tomato and pea curry)

This is a great website to find and cook new things: http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/collection/slow-cooker1 -
You can steam fish in the slow cooker, takes about 2 hours on low. It comes out lovely. Either put it on a plate and balance the plate on a bowl over a bit of water in the bottom of the slow cooker, or make foil parcels of fish and stack them up. You can add spices, veg, citrus slices etc.
ETA you might have to experiment to see how long this takes in your slow cooker, they vary a lot.0 -
Beans are better the longer they cook, so the slow cooker is good for this.
