Hello!

So, I am hosting my own little dinner party tomorrow night for a group of friends. And due to a hectic schedule etc. etc., I'm really wanting to try out my slow cooker for the first time. But I've left the planning a little bit late!

Can anybody recommend any good slow cooker recipes?!

Or maybe a good website where I will be able to find some?

Thanks in advance...

    Two Cans Chunk Chicken
    Texas Pete
    Two Cups Plain Greek Yogurt
    Big Container Fat Free Sour Cream

    Serve with Celery

    Not as thick as the cream cheese version but pretty good.

    CREAMY CHICKEN TACO SOUP (SERVES 6)
    2 frozen chicken breasts
    1 can Rotel tomatoes
    1 can whole kernel corn (don't drain)
    1 can black beans - rinsed & drained
    1 packet dry ranch seasoning packet
    1 tsp chili powder
    1 tsp cumin
    1 tsp onion powder
    fat-free cream cheese

    Mix all ingredients except cream cheese together in crockpot. Cook on low 6-8 hours (frozen chicken) or high 3-4 hours (thawed chicken). About 1/2 hour before ready, take chicken out of crockpot, shred with fork and put back in pot. Also cut cream cheese into cubes and put in crock pot. Stir to mix in, turn crock pot on high to melt cream cheese.

    This can be served over rice, in tortillas or however you like. I personally just eat mine in a bowl with avacado slices on top. But some topping suggestions would be green onion, tortilla strips, sour cream, shred cheese.
