    Salsa chicken:
    4 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    1 large jar salsa (I like HOT salsa)

    Spray crockpot with non-stick spray. Pour a little salsa in the bottom to coat, Lay chicken breasts on top, if you need to do layers to fit it all in, put salsa between the layers and pour the rest of the jar over the top. Cook on low 8 hrs or high 5-6 hours. (I have even put the breasts in frozen when I have forgotten to defrost!)

    The meat is sooo tender!! You can shred it, slice it, dice it. I use it for tacos, burritos, sandwiches, over rice, anything you can think of.

    I often add any or all of the following:

    can black beans
    frozen corn
    onions (cut them in large chunks)
    cloves of garlic (whole, peeled, they will get super soft & sweet)
    celery, cut in big chunks
    can of diced tomatoes

    OMG this sounds fabulous! Thanks

    I have a bok choy soup recipe that I have changed some. My kids call it "Yummy good for you soup"

    1 leek, diced
    sauted in 1 tsp butter (I have been known to skip this step and just add the chopped leak and a touch of EVOO to the crockpot)
    add a clove of garlic (I always at least double the garlic because my familiy loves it!)
    4 baby bok choy sliced
    8 cups vegetable broth (I use 8 cups of water and vegetable bouillon to make the broth)
    1 tsp marjoram
    2 potatoes diced
    2 carrots grated
    Vermicelli 3 oz. (I tend to omit this because it nearly doubles the calories)

    our family favorite. It even gets my husband to eat vegetables. I have read that yellow onion can be substituted for the leeks. (this makes the recipe cheaper and leeks aren't always easily available.)

    I have filled my crock with potatoes and left them all day. The weight of the ones on top can cause the ones on teh bottom to split open, but if you are going to split them anyway...doesn't matter! ;-)

    For my New Years party I am making Buffalo Chicken Dip in the slow cooker... OMG if you love wings, you will LOVE LOVE LOVE this!

    Boil chicken, drain and shred (Franks Red Hot site suggest using can chicken)
    Add to slow cooker
    Add 1 package cream cheese
    Add 1/2 cup (1/4 cup for less intense, 1 cup for more punch) Franks Red Hot Wing Sauce
    1 packet of dry Ranch seasoning (I use this for more flavor)
    1/2 cup of Ranch or Blue Cheese dressing

    Cook on low for 2-3 hours
    Before serving sprinkle with mozzarella cheese

    Serve with tortilla chips, bread, celery.. etc
