Crock pot recipes

[Medusa]

It's getting to be that time of year again, when I break out the crock pot and let it do the work.

I'm looking for some new ideas. I do the old favorites like chill and stews, and I have a couple of chicken and beef dishes that are good, but I'm looking for some new twists, but kept simple.

I have one of my favorite chicken dishes in cooking now. It smells soooo good!!!!
Any kind of chicken parts - I used legs today.
Potatoes quartered - no need to peel if you don't want to.
A large family size can of cream of mushroom soup - undiluted.
Parsley flakes, pepper.

Put chicken and potatoes in pot - spoon over the mushroom soup - and season with the parsley and pepper. The soup cooks into a wonderful gravy and the potatoes taste fantastic after cooking in it all day.


I also do basically the same with roast beef - any cut - except use a regular size can of the soup undiluted - and sprinkle an envelope of dry onion soup in it. Again - cook the potatoes in with it too.


So I'm looking for some new chicken or roast recipes (or any other kind of meat) - but kept simple.

Does anyone have any they would like to share?


ETA: I forgot this - for those that don't like mushrooms or mushroom soup - you can use any kind of cream soup. I have used cream of chicken or cream of broccoli too, altho I prefer the mushroom.

I've cooked this same recipe except w/pork chops and I slice the potatoes. Since I don't have a crockpot, I bake it in the oven in a cooking bag. I use cream of mushroom soup, sliced fresh mushrooms and fresh green beans. So yummy and filling on a cold day.

Yum - but I'll skip the green beans Mary.

I'll have to do a pork roast in the crock pot like that - and maybe add some broccoli instead of the beans.

Next weekend it's corned beef, potatoes and cabbage - I promised my granddaughter. That's another meal that everyone here likes.
