Crock pot recipes

So, it's getting to be that time of the year when I love to use my crock pot. It's so nice to come home from work/class and have a meal waiting! Anyone have some good recipes or books they would like to share?

Here's a recipe I made last night:

Creamy Black Bean Salsa Chicken
from 101 More Things to Do with a Slow Cooker by Stephanie Ashcraft

2-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 c chicken broth
1 c salsa
1 can (15 oz) corn, drained
1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained
1 pkg taco seasoning
½ c sour cream
1 c grated cheddar cheese

Place chicken in greased 3.5-5 qt slow cooker. Pour broth, salsa, corn, beans and taco seasoning over chicken. Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or high for 3-4 hours.

Remove chicken and place on serving dish. Stir sour cream and cheese into sauce, then pour over chicken. Makes 3-5 servings. Serve with warm tortillas and Spanish rice.

The book listed is a WONDERFUL crock pot book. It uses common ingredients that you usually have around the house which I really like. Enjoy!

I snagged Cook Once, Eat Twice Slow Cooker Recipes (Bertter Homes and Gardens)

http://www.amazon.com/Twice-Cooker-Recipes-Bertter-Gardens/dp/0696230534/

on the clearance table at my local bookstore and I love it! I have made thai chicken and beef short ribs (and the soups the next day) and everything was YUMMY!

I have a crock pot link in my blog. The Southern Living Slow Cooker series is my favorite. I just got a BHG book and made a soup that was excellent. I can't wait to try more recipes from it.
