Lots and Lots of Crockpot Meals

I just got a new job (yay!) and I start on Monday. Well my schedule has changed and I'm working a little later than I'm used to. I don't have the desire to get home and cook a lot for dinner, and I don't want to get in the habit of eating out too much. I need to take advantage of my crockpot now and I need a lot of crockpot recipes. And when I say a lot, I mean A LOT!!

 Thanks soooo much!!

I just went through the same problem. I actually went on www.ebay.half.com which is a used book website and got four crockpot cookbooks for $12 total! Thats with shipping!

I got them all and I LOVE "Busy People's Slow-Cooker Cookbook : Dawn Hall (Hardcover, 2003)" I got it for 88 cents! I saw at least 30 recipes I'll make right away!

Good Luck!

I have a slow cooker link in my blog.  I also highly recommend the southern living slow cooker cookbook.

I'm a little late, so I hope you still see this! This is one of ours favs:

 

Slow-Cooker Salsa Chicken

Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup of your favorite salsa
1 package taco seasoning (I use low sodium)
1 can cream of mushroom soup (I use low fat)
1/2 cup sour cream (I used low fat)

Directions:
Add chicken to slow cooker. Sprinkle with taco seasoning. Pour salsa and soup over chicken. Cook on low for 6-8 hours. Remove from slow-cooker and shred. Stir in sour cream. Serve with rice and beans. (I also like to eat it rolled up in tortillas)
