I just love my crockpot!
Especially on a day like today. It is cold and rainy outside and I have some chinese vegetable and seafood soup cooking as I type this! Yum!
I make lots of soups, stews, and dishes in it. Food always tastes great when it cooks for 8 hours!
Anyone got some good crockpot recipes?
I think I might have some.... I'll take a look tonight. :D
I love Goulash and Chili in a crockpot. Yum!!!
Oooo! I just got a CrockPot and am in need of some good recipes! This should be a good thread! :D
Two large bags of sauerkraut. One large pork loin. Throw it all in there together and simmer on low all day. Serve with homemade mashed potatoes. Salt and pepper both to taste. Prior to serving the pork and sauerkraut, break apart pork into smaller pieces - do not serve as a loin.
Ohhhhh, that is some goooooooooood lovin'.
Chinese Vegetable and Seafood Soup
15 cups water
6 Tbsp vegetable boullion or fish boullion

8 oz. soy beans
2 large carrots, shredded
8 oz. baby corn, sliced
8 oz. water chestnuts, slicedd
1/2 lbs shrimp, deviened and tails removed

I love crockpots. Mine broke in the move and I was devastated! I need to go out and get another because I really don't cook much lately. Ever since I've been pregnant, the smell of cooking meat makes me sick.
I make a killer stew in the crock pot. The problem is that I never make it the same twice. lol. It turns out awesome about 1 out of every 10 tries, the other times it's just ok. I put the beef in with salt and pepper and a tad of oil until it browns. Then I add water, seasoning, and whatever veggies are in the fridge.
I also have an awesome chili recipe, but my cookbooks are still packed. It is made with dark beer and huge chunks of beef. It is awesome. I'll post it once i find my recipes.
Ohhhh... yeah!!
The weather is just turning cold enough here to break out the crock pot!
I just love how easy it is!
My fav is just roast.
cut red skins in halves... throw 'em in
bag of baby carrots.... thow 'em in
plop the roast on top
open a pack of lipton soup, sprinkel on top,
some beef broth and a cup of water,
leave it on low all day while I'm "hard" at work;)
I come home.... DINNER IS DONE!!
Can you get Company's Coming cook books where you are? They are great and she has one out that is nothing but crockpot recipes. I use it all the time!
Its nowhere near cold here yet, but when it is, I love the crockpot.
We cook everything from chicken to tritip to sauces in there. I love makings a spaghetti sauce that simmers all day long. :)
I am definitely going to try this it sounds soooo good.Quote:

I hope you enjoy it!! I'll have to make it on our first chilly day - talking about it yesterday made me crave it!!!
This is how I do it too, except I've never done it with beef broth. I cook my roasts 10-12 hours in the crockpot, the meat just falls apart. And it is so easy, that's my kind of cooking. I can throw the stuff into the pot in the morning while I'm still half-asleep, and it tastes like I've been slaving in the kitchen all day.Quote:

I love my crockpot! I like to make some pinto beans or chili in it.
I would love to try out some other stuff to cook in it.:)
