    I love crock pot meals! They save us from last minute fast food when unexpected schedule changes come up. I just grab a meat out of the freezer, pour stock, tomato sauce, or water and spices on the meat, add some veggies, and let it cook on low until we get home from work that night. Never really follow a recipe just put in what sounds good and is available that morning.

    My fav go to Slowcooker recipe takes about 2 minutes to make. LOVE IT!!!


    Take 4- 6 frozen chicken breast
    1 Can black beans
    1 Jar Salsa ( whichever heat you desire we use MED)
    1 Can of corn kernels ( I personally leave this out but my sister always adds this)


    Dump all contents into a slowcooker before leaving for work cook cook for 6-8 hours. 45 minutes before you are ready to eat it. Put one brick of Philly Cream Cheese on top and let it melt in ( you can use light).

    Good over rice, or to eat with tortilla's.

    Doesn't get easier then that. Everyone who has ever tried it LOVES it.

    A bottle of your favorite buffalo/hot sauce
    A packet of dry ranch dip mix on top
    6-8 hours in crock pot
    Shred chicken, add a tablespoon of butter
    Cook on low to let it absorb more into chicken

    And that's it!

    Slowcooker Kashmiri Butter Chicken.

    Uses very little butter, has a rich sauce and low calorie. Very authentic! Could be cooked on stove also.
    Serves 4: Calories per serving: 301
    2 onions quartered
    3 garlic cloves
    4cmfresh root ginger peeled (I use about 3tsp minced ginger).
    I large red chilli halved, seeds discarded (I leave this out because of kids).
    8 boneless skinless chicken thighs. ( i use breast)
    1 tbsp sunflower oil.
    25g butter
    1tsp cumin seeds crushed
    1tsp fennel seeds crushed
    4 green cardamom pods crushed
    1 tsp paprika
    1 tsp ground turmeric
    ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
    300ml chicken stock
    1tbsp light muscovado sugar
    2 tbsp tomato puree
    5 tbsp double cream (optional - I use 50% less fat cooking cream for cooking).
    To garnish: 2tbsp chopped coriander (cilantro) leaves and flaked almonds (if desired).

    Preheat slow cooker if your model requires it. Blend onions, garlic, ginger and chilli in a blender/processer (or chop v finely). Cut each chicken thigh into 4 pieces and brown using the oil. Remove to a plate. Melt butter in pan and add onion paste, cooking until it begins to colour. Stir in crushed seeds, crushed cardamom seeds and pods and ground spices. Cook for 1 minute, add stock, sugar, tomato puree, and salt. Bring to boil, stirring. Transfer chicken to slowcooker and pour sauce over. Cover and cook on LOW for 5-7hrs. Stir in cream if required before serving.

    My kids love this too. The onion paste mix and spices could all be prepared the night before so just a quick fry and bring to the boil in the morning. I mix a larger quantity of the ground spices together and leave in a jar and then just add about a tbsp when making up the recipe.

    I couldnt find the original post to give credit... but I made this one yesterday. It makes 4 servings of 1 cup (very filling) and tastes oh so good!!! Per Serving 280 cal, 51 carb, 5 fat, 6 protein, 6 fiber, and only 48 sodium. Also, I've noticed many of the recipes posted on this thread are way too high in calories/fat/sugar for many of us. So I am starting a new thread for HEALTHY crockpot/slow cooker recipes:) Hope some of you will repost your recipes there.

    ORIGINAL POST:

    My favorite breakfast. I substitute margarine for the butter, abd I add either an entire apple or a can (10.75 oz) of pumpkin puree to a double batch. This also freezes well!!

    Ingredients

    1 cup steel cut oats
    3 1/2 cups water
    1 cup peeled and chopped apple (1 medium gala is perfect)
    1/2 cup raisins
    2 tablespoons butter (I used light margerine)
    1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
    2 tablespoons brown sugar (I used splenda brown sugar blend)
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract (I was out of extract so I used 1 Tbsp sugar free vanilla syrup that I use to make lattes)

    Directions

    Place the steel cut oats, water, apple, raisins, butter, cinnamon, brown sugar, and vanilla extract into a slow cooker, and stir to combine and dissolve the sugar. Cover the cooker, set to Low, and allow to cook 6 to 7 hours (for firm oats) or 8 hours (for softer texture).

    Made this last night.. OMG... a HIT!! I didn't add the sour cream (hubby hates it.. ) .. but didn't need it! It was amazing over rice! Next time I'm shredding the chicken to make burritos.... the kids LOVED it!!! 4 hours in the crock pot was the best time.. so it doesn't dry out the chicken!!!
