Hi I absolutely love my crock pot. There is a website called www.savingdinner.com and they have cookbooks for everything. They are mostly meals that you prepare then freeze, then defrost then cook. Not reheating. They are fabulous.

Chili! its so good, has flavor but not too spicy.
youll need
chili powder
ground cumin
salt
pepper
can of tom. sauce
diced tomatoe - 3 cans
3-4 cans dark red kidney beans (strained and rinsed)
garlic powder, and salt (or subsitute those for real garlic and cook with ground beef)
onion powder
ground beef browned and drained.

cook ground beef in a frying pan on med-high heat until its brown, and then strain it in the strainer. add everything together in the crock pot and let it cook for 4 hrs on high. Its so good served with cornbread or french bread. you can top it with sour cream and cheese if you like those also.

Crockpot Mini Brewed Meatballs

Meatballs:

• 3 lbs. lean ground beef

• 1/2 cup finely chopped onion

• 1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs (use seasoned bread crumbs if you like)

• 3 eggs

• 2 to 3 tablespoons cooking oil to fry meatballs

Sauce:

• 1 (12 ounce) can/bottle of good beer

• 1 (12 ounce) can/bottle spicy tomato juice

• 1 tsp. lemon juice

• 1 tsp. hot sauce

• 1 large bottle (12 ounces) of mild barbecue sauce (or you may substitute ketchup)

• 1 tsp. horseradish

• 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce

• salt and pepper to taste

Make your meatballs: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with onion, bread crumbs, and eggs. Use your hands to squish everything together until well mixed, but don’t handle too much or the meat tends to toughen up. Just make sure the ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the ground beef. Then, form the meat mixture into small meatballs, about the size of a golf ball is usually good.

Pour a bit of cooking oil in a large skillet, heat to medium, add the meatballs (don’t crowd the pan) and brown the meatballs all over. Set the browned meatballs on paper towels on a rack to absorb any extra grease.

Optional: You may choose to brown the meatballs in the oven. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees, put the meatballs on a baking sheet, and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, turning a couple times to brown all sides.

Make your sauce: In a large saucepan over medium low heat, whisk together all the sauce ingredients and simmer for about 10 to 15 minutes. Don’t let it come to a boil.

Assemble: Turn your crock pot on LOW. Put the meatballs in, then pour the hot sauce on top of the meatballs. Gently stir together, being careful not to break up the meatballs. Cover the crockpot and cook on LOW for about 3 hours. Stir occasionally, but be sure to be careful that you don’t break up the meatballs.

You can let this simmer slowly for quite a while so you can keep it hot on your buffet without worrying about overcooking. You’ll have around 65 to 70 meatballs with this recipe so you should have plenty for a crowd.

Tastefully Simple is a company similar to Pampered Chef that produces a food line. They have recently come out with 3 cooking sauces that are amazing. They also have a load of crockpot recipes on their website. Just simple everyday food with a special seasoning blend and you have dinner. One of my favorites is 6 chicken breast with 2 cans cream of whatever, 1/2 c sour cream and 1 1/2 - 2 tbsp of garlic and tomato pesto seasoning. It turns out to be like a chicken stroganoff topping that you can put over noodles or rice. Check them out online.

i dont have an oven so i use my crock pot for everything. my favorite so far are stuffed peppers. i use about a lb of ground beef with some chopped onion. cook it until its brown, then get 3 green peppers(more if ur family is larger) stuff the peppers with the meat, put some canned tomatoe sauce on top, let it cook for about 4 hrs...maybe less depending on how high speed your crock pot is, then the last 15 min or so i put slices of velveeta cheese on top. DELISH

We just put some meatballs in and a can of spaghetti sauce and put it on low for 4 hours and you can either put it on noodles or use it for meatball subs!

I don't have a new crockpot but I've decided to commit to using mine a lot more. I think it would be healthier than coming home and trying to decide what to fix for dinner and ending up with some sort of processed food just because it's quick. I've been "googling" recipes and there are a lot out there. I plan on buying a crockpot cookbook as well. Tonight I'm making Cheese Soup. So simple: 2 cans cream of celery soup, 4 cups shredded cheddar cheese, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce, 1 1/4 c half-and-half, salt and pepper. Mix all except half-and-half, salt and pepper, cook on low 2-3 hours, then add half-and-half, cook another 20 minutes, then salt and pepper to tasts. Can serve this in a bread bowl for a heartier meal or as a side. I plan on adding shredded cooked chicken to mine.

Stacy - posted on 01/02/2010

I love to cook in my crock pot. My husbands favorite is a chicken dish I make. Take 6 boneless chicken breasts place in crock pot. place a slice of mozzarella cheese on top of each breast. Pour a can of cream of mushroom soup on top. Mix about half a stick of melted butter and stufing mix together pour on top. then place about half cup of water in pot. Cook on low for about 6-8 hours or on high for about 2 hours. Tastes like a turkey dinner. Very good!
