Crock Pot Recipies
Trying something
I could use some new Crockpot recipes. Here's a couple of my faves:
Chicken in a Pot
4-6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 pkg dry Italian Dressing Mix
6 oz. lite cream cheese (I used 8 )
one can cream of mushroom soup
one can mushroom stems and pieces (8 oz)
Sprinkle dressing packet on chicken breasts in crock pot. Do not add water. Cook on low for 6-8 hrs. Then stir in rest of ingredients. Turn crock pot on high to heat through (about 30 minutes). Serve over hot noodles or with rice. Makes 4 servings.
**********************************************
Easy Crockpot Beef Stroganoff
2 lbs cubed beef stew meat or round steak
1 can cream of celery soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can French onion soup
fresh mushrooms, added with (optional)
extra onions, if desired (optional)
egg noodles or rice
8 ounces sour cream
Lighly brown meat.
Add remaining ingredient except Sour Cream, Noodles and or Rice.
Slow cook in the Crock Pot for 8 hours on low (my crockpot cooks fast, so you might want to make this one supervised before leaving it unattended).
Add Sour Cream after cooking time is complete and heat to warm.
Serve over Noodles or Rice.

I found this recipe that I want to try:
Crock Pot Lasagna Recipe
Ingredients
1 lb (500g) ground beef
1 large onion, finely diced
2 garlic cloves, minced (or 2 tspn pre-purchased garlic)
1 lb jar tomato spaghetti sauce - choose your favorite flavor (we used spring vegetable)
8 oz (250g) fresh lasagna sheets (no boil - found in cold section)
1lb (500g) mozzarella cheese - grated/shredded
1lb (500g) ricotta cheese
2 oz (60g) parmesan cheese - grated/shredded
¼ cup milk
1 egg - lightly beaten
1 tsp oregano
salt and pepper
Optional other favorite herbs - depends how much is in the sauce you use.
mushrooms - sliced and added at end of frying meat
Method
1. Fry the beef, onion and garlic in a frying pan, using a tiny amount of oil.
2. Fry until slightly browned. And pour off any excess oil. Add tomato sauce and heat through.
3. Meanwhile, gently combine the ricotta, milk and egg.
4. Then mix in the mozzarella and parmesan. Retaining about 1 tbls of parmesan for later.
5. Now we are ready to construct it in the crock pot. We found there was no need to grease the pot, but if you must - do it now.
6. Using a large serving spoon or ladle, place about ¼ of the meat mixture in the crock pot - spread evenly.
7. Top this with a layer of lasagna sheets, cut to size. (See the notes below)
8. Top this with 1/3 of the cheese sauce.
9. Repeat steps 6, 7 and 8 once more. You should now have cheese sauce on top.
10. Now repeat step 6, then 7 and 6 again.
11. Top with remaining cheese sauce.
12. Sprinkle the retained parmesan on top.
13. Cook on low for 4-6 hours.
Notes
Serves 4-6

Chicken and Cornbread Dressing
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1 can cream of chicken soup, undiluted
1-1/4 cups water
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 (6.00 ounces) package cornbread stuffing mix
Place chicken in greased crockpot. Pour undiluted soup on top of chicken. In a medium sized bowl, combine cornbread stuffing, butter and water. Mix until well combined, then spoon over the chicken. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours or until juices run clear.
Source: http://familycrockpotrecipes.com/Chicken-and-Cornbread-Dressing.html
Comments: I tried this one. I thought the stuffing was a little sloppy/mushy right out of the crockpot. It's better after it's been refrigerated and reheated - it firms up the stuffing. I do plan on using the recipe again, but I think I will use less water in the stuffing next time.

Ewwww, Goldi, meatloaf in the crockpot sounds scary!
I have tried the beef stroganoff recipe a couple of times and really like it. What I usually do is brown the meat the night b/4, then put it in the crock pot insert, add the soups, then pop it in the fridge over night. Then in the morning, I can just pop the insert into the crockpot and turn it on. I don't usually bother adding mushrooms or onions. I'll add the sour cream as I'm cooking the noodles right b/4 dinner.
I've also made one or both of the chicken recipes...I think it was the one with the sourcream, and not the one with the cream cheese as I thought before. It was good also.

Well crud....I was just about to put all the fixings to make the Chicken and Cornbread Stuff recipe when I realized it only needed to be in the crock pot for 4 hours. I'm working all day, so it would prolly be in there for at least 9 hours. Does 4 hours on low seem a little short to anyone?

I don't know, Xena. Chicken breasts cook pretty quickly, so 4 hours on low is probably right.

You all are so accomplished when it comes to cooking! When I said I hated it I wasn't kidding. The most I've ever attempted was Hamburger Helper :: Now that I'm too to cook, the crockpot idea would be great for me and my hubby. Can anyone recommend a really good crockpot but one that isn't too hard on the pocketbook?
I'm hungry! Very Happy :excited

Fran, I use a Crockpot by Rival. I've had it for awhile - prolly got it at Target. I think Sunbeam has a similiar version. Crockpots last forever, so you might be able to get one at a garage sale, or even E-bay for pretty cheap.

I have a Rival Crock Pot as well ... I got it as a wedding gift 16 years ago, and it still works great.
Cooks Illustrated also recommends the Farberware Millennium 6-qt Oval Cooker. When CI tested this model, its retail price was $29.99.

Here's one I got from a friend, In her words:
Pulled Pork Sandwhiches
1 pork roast
1 bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce
Cook the sh*t out of it on low all day. When you get home from work, the pork shreds "like buttah." Serve it with the buns of your choice, et voila - you have pulled pork sandwiches.

Xena, I have a very similar recipe. I use a Boston Butt pork roast, and I add liquid smoke (about 2 tsps), water, and BBQ sauce to the crock pot. Cook it all day on low. Then, drain the cooking juices, shred the pork, and add more BBQ sauce. Yummy!
The (if you have any) freeze well.

Mmmm....that sounds good. I'm doing the beef stroganoff recipe today.
Anyone have a recipe for doing mash potatoes in the crock pot? We're having a lunch on the 15th, and one has signed up for that yet.

Xena, I've never made mashed potatoes in a crock pot, but I found this recipe ... it's a lot like your recipe in the thread, so you could probably use your recipe, but follow these crockpot directions:
Crockpot Mashed Potatoes
Recipe Feedback: User Rating Be the first to write a review
By Linda Larsen, About.com
Potatoes are actually cooked and mashed out of the crockpot, then cooked for a couple of hours to blend the flavors. This recipe is perfect for the holidays because you don't have the last minute mashing and beating of potatoes.
Prep Time: 25 minutes
Cook Time: 3 hours,
Ingredients:
5 lbs. red potaotes, cut into chunks (peeled if you like)
1 Tbsp. minced garlic
2 cubes bouillon
8 oz. container sour cream
8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
salt and pepper to taste
Preparation:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes, garlic and bouillon cubes. Cook potatoes until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain, reserving a little of the cooking water. Mash potatoes with sour cream and cream cheese, adding reserved cooking water to reach desired consistency. Transfer to a 4 quart crockpot, cover, and cook on low for 2 to 3 hours. Just before serving, stir in butter and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serves 8-10

Recipe(tried): Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes for Crockpot
Posted By: Nancy/AZ
Date: December 15th 1999
Board: recipelink.com Cooking Club
These are the best ever. I always make them for holidays and for parties. I just made them last Friday night. I doubled the recipe and there were absolutely . They can be made up to a week ahead.
5 pounds potatoes, peeled and quartered(about 15 medium)
6 ounces cream cheese
1 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 egg whites, slightly beaten
1 tablespoon margarine or butter
Cook potatoes in large pot of boiling water until tender. Mash until there are lumps. Add cream cheese, sour cream, onion powder, salt, pepper and egg whites; blend well. Cool slightly, place in covered container and refrigerate (I put them in the removable liner of my crockpot)
Take out of refrigerator about 3 1/2 hours before you plan to serve them. Place in slow-cooker. Dot with margarine or butter. Cook on low for 3 hours, stirring once or twice. They can be held an additional 30 minutes or more.
Makes 12 servings

Here's one that DH and I :
Round Steak and Mushroom Gravy
Round Steak - as much or little meat as you like
1 can Campbell's cream of mushroom soup
salt - to taste
pepper - to taste
Cut up round steak into small bitesized cubes, put into crock pot, pour over can of mushroom soup filling about 1/4 to 1/2 of the empty can with water and pouring that over as well. Salt and pepper to taste. Stir meat, soup, water, salt and pepper. Cook on high, med or low depending on the time you want to eat.
Round steak and mushroom gravy for dinner with some mashed potatoes and biscuits...YUM YUM!!! :-cloud

It is so good Xena! The best about it is that it is so easy. Easy to prepare and then all you have to do is enjoy! Sometimes I even cut up my meat the night before. Wink

Get this. I asked my sister twice if she had a crockpot and she said both times. She over heard me talking to my hubby about getting one and she pulls out a crockpot from a cupboard high up behind the fridge! And its a Rival!!!!!! Very Happy So now I just need to pick the a recipe and go for it.
Thanks for all the great recipes everyone. I'll let you know which one I chose. :mrgreen: Please let it come out okay. ::
