    I have recently discovered it, too. What I have learned is that I can only afford to use it about once a week, and barely even that. Hot dogs and burgers are cheaper, go figure.

    Italian Chicken

    1 bag FROZEN b/s chicken breasts
    1-2 envelopes dry Italian Dressing Mix (I use 2)
    1 bottle or can beer
    Pepproncini peppers to taste (I use 2-4 so my kids will eat it)

    Cook on low for 7-8 hours. Serve with or without a bun.
    We eat it without the bun with a slice of provelone cheese.
    YUMMY!!
    I make something very similar with 1 pkg Italian Dressing mix & 1 pkg onion soup mix, but I've never tried beer in it. I think I will next time!

    One of my favorite crock pot recipes is for either pork or chicken.

    4-6 large chicken breasts trimmed of all fat ( or 4-5 large pork chops trimmed of all fat
    8-10 tomatillos, dry skin removed, washed and quartered
    1 large onion cut in one inch chunks
    2 cans red, black or kidney beans, sometimes I use a canned trio of beans
    6 green chilies, roasted, peeled, seeded, chopped
    2 large tomatoes peeled and seeded. chopped
    2 cups corn
    4-6 cloves garlic, sliced very thin
    1 tsp salt (more depending on your taste)
    Cumin, Chili powder, and italian seasoning to taste
    cook on low 7 hours, remove meat, shred, return to pot
    add white or brown instant rice 30 minutes before serving. I use one package uncle bens boil in bag rice, sometimes I stretch it with 2 bags

    The leftovers from this make a great stuffing for stuffed peppers, especially red peppers! i just add an ounce of cheese in every pepper.

    Occasionally this produces a very bland mix so I will give in and add a chili verde sauce to it after 4 or 5 hours... you never can tell about the fresh tomatillos and chili's!

    I've made this a couple of times and it is delish! In fact, it's cooking right now for tonight's dinner!


    Mexican Crockpot Creamy Chicken

    Ingredients:
    20 oz. Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts (this is about 5 breasts, I put mine in frozen)
    1/2 cup of salsa
    1 bag frozen sweet corn
    1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed
    1 can of Rotel Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilies
    Chili Powder (to taste)
    Salt & Pepper (to taste)
    1/2 block of cream cheese (I use 1/3 fat free)

    Directions:
    Put chicken in crock pot and cover with all ingredients except for cream cheese.
    Add in chili powder and S & P to taste. I sprinkle it all on the top and add more later if needed.
    Cook for 3-4 hours on high, 7-8 hours on low.
    Shred the chicken and mix it all in along with the cream cheese until melted. Let cook for another 15-20 minutes until heated through.
    Serve over rice or in tortillas as tacos/burritos.
    Top with some shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, onion.

    Makes 14 – ½ cup servings.
    Nutrition info for recipe only:
    131 Calories per serving
    15 Carbs
    3 Fat
    12 Protein

    I recently tweaked this recipe by using 1 c. of salsa (instead of 1/2 c.), 2 cans of black beans (instead of 1). And I usually add a bit more cream cheese than what the recipe calls for.

    The nutrition information is based on the recipe, not my alterations.

    Im saving this recipe !!! sounds delish!
