Crockpot

Since I'm sick this week, I'm looking for recipes you can just throw into the crockpot. What is your best crockpot recipe?

  1. This is probably one of my most favorite Crock Pot meals of all time!

    Cream Cheese Chicken

    1/2 Can Chicken Stock
    2 to 6 Chicken Breasts (how many you need)
    1 8oz Cream Cheese
    1 Can Cream of Chicken Soup
    1 Italian Dressing Packet

    Pour the Chicken Stock into the bottom of the Crock pot.
    Then add the chicken Breasts. (frozen)
    Then add both the Cream Cheese and Cream Soup. (I cut up the cream cheese and put it all over and in between, along with the
    soup the same way. So that it all melts and blends.)
    Then sprinkle the dressing packet all over everything.

    Cook it on low for 5 to 6 hours.

    When I open it, I take the chicken out, and use a wisk to mix the
    gravy. Then I serve that yummy gravy over everything. Chicken
    and either potatoes, or rice.

  3. Well, I LOVE Bajio....so here is my recipe for Bajio Green Chili chicken Salad:

    Bajio Chicken Chile Salad

    5 chicken breasts

    1/2 cup salsa

    1 Tbsp cumin

    1/2 cup brown sugar (more to taste)

    1 4 oz. can diced green chilies

    6 oz. Sprite (1/2 can)

    Combine all ingredients in a crock pot. Cook on low for 5-6 hours. Remove chicken and shred. Return to crock pot and cook 1 more hour. Thicken the juices with a little cornstarch mixed in water.

    Serve with flour tortillas, lettuce, cheese, black beans and any other taco fixings.

    If you want it spicer rather than sweeter add a hotter salsa and more green chilies.

  5. Slow Cooker Italian Beef

    1 1/2 cups beef broth
    1 cup water
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1 teaspoon dried oregano
    1 teaspoon dried basil
    1 teaspoon onion salt
    1 teaspoon dried parsley
    1 teaspoon garlic powder
    1 bay leaf
    1 (.7 ounce) package dry Italian-style salad dressing mix (such as Good Seasons brand)
    1 (5 pound) chuck roast

    Combine water and beef broth with salt, ground black pepper, oregano, basil, onion salt, parsley, garlic powder, bay leaf, and salad dressing mix. Whisk to combine.

    Place roast in slow cooker, and pour salad dressing mixture over the meat. Cover, and cook on Low for 10 to 12 hours, or on High for 4 to 5 hours. When done, remove bay leaf, and shred meat with a fork (I did this step about 1 hour before eating so the shredded meat had time to absorb more of the juices in the crockpot). Serve on crusty rolls with cheese, sliced onions, tomatoes, etc.
