Slow Cooker / Crock Pot Recipes

Slow cookers

I love the things. I usually make beef stew in them. Throw some meat and veggies (usually potatoes, celery, carrots, etc) with somes spices and let it go . Chili is very good in it as well. I've also made some barbequed pork (and pulled it for sandwiches)... yuuuum!

Apple pies are better with crock pot cooked apples

i've got a 9 qt slow cooker. i generally use it for chili, though chicken catchatore (spelling? firefox gives me nothing) is a good go-getter as well.

off the top of my head?

one 28 ounce can of tomato puree
one 28 ounce can of diced tomato
one small can of tomato paste
one tablespoon minced garlic (i use the pre-minced spice world garlic)
one large onion, one yellow pepper, one green pepper, (basically half a pound of onions and half a pound of peppers) julienned
basil, oregano, sage, salt, pepper to taste
cheap burgundy, also to taste
one pound chicken
one and a half cups of mushrooms, should one be feeling squirrelly


mix tomato products, spices, and wine.
add veggies, then bury your chicken at the bottom of the pot. medium heat ought to do the trick.

Basically like the carrot pieces you usually see in salads in restaurants - thin strips, usually no more than 1/8" or so on any side except the length, which is usually a few inches. Basically used either for vegetables that are hard to eat by themselves (carrots, ie) or for increasing surface area in order to draw the most flavor out of them into a sauce (as here).
