    Barbeque baked beans with chorizo:

    Serves 6 as a side dish/snack (approx 1 cup serving) 270 cals per portion

    -1 chorizo sausage ring, chopped into 1cm cubes
    - 1 large red onion, sliced.
    - 1 can chopped tomatoes
    - 1 can baked beans
    - 1 can beans (Any variety you like, I used kidney beans)
    - 1 tsp smoked paprika
    - 1 tbsp honey
    - 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce, or dash of liquid smoke.
    - 1/2 tsp garlic granules/powder or 1 crushed garlic clove.
    - black pepper, to taste

    Method: fry off the chorizo & onion to release oils & soften. Add to the crockpot.

    add the rest of the ingredients and cook on low for 4 hours, high for 2.

    serve with baked potatoes, pork chops, chicken, sausages or even fish. My personal favourite is to stuff savoury crepes with the beany mixture :o)

    P.S: If you cant get chorizo you can sub for smoked bacon or cooked leftover ham.

    I'm new here, so slay me if I'm wrong, but all these bumps, while necessary, are distracting. Couldn't you post to bump to achieve its purpose and then delete the post so that you don't have to scroll through all this? I'm on my phone so it's a little tedious.

    Just thought I'd add to this. I just added a new recipe to my box that I have fixed for a long time now but I'm going to start making a healthier version. The original isn't so bad either.

    Zesty BBQ sandwiches

    1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast trimmed
    1 (12oz) Kraft Light Original Reduced Calorie BBQ sauce
    1/2 cup Wishbone Fat Free Italian dressing
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    2 tbsp Worcestershire

    Place chicken in crock pot. Mix all other ingredients in a separate bowl. Cover chicken with mix. Place lid on crock pot and cook on high 3-4 hrs or on low 6-8 hrs. Eat alone or on some sandwich thins as a sandwich. Enjoy!

    Update...

    I mistyped and just realized it. Use 2lbs of chicken instead of 1. Also to reduce your numbers you can use Walden Farms calorie free BBQ sauce.
