   One of my favs is to make a layered dish of hole peeled patatos, then frozen, deboned chicken breasts and top it with green chilies and what ever else you have in the cupboard, you won’t need too much water since the chicken is frozen. I love to add carrots, fresh or canned tomatoes etc. Add pepper and salt to taste. Let it slow cook for three to four hours on low or until the chicken and tatoes are done!
   Also, if possible wash your veggies before using them even if your getting them from the can. The preservatives and salt are really not good for you and the taste is better if you rinse it off.
   Another good one is to substitute pork, beef or just add all the meats togehter and add 6 or 8 sliced potatoes that are sliced length wise, 1-2 cloves of whole garlic, fresh tomatoes and whatever veggies you like then cook on low heat until tender. We also serve this over rice or noodles.
   Sorry I am at my moms home and not mine but we do throw together dinners often and that is whatever we see we throw it in the ol crock pot. Its the best! Good luck!

   You can make excellent veggie recipes in crock pot or add meat as well. Beans cook a long time, so if you put those in a crock pot (1 cup dried beans to 2 cups of water or chicken broth) with chopped onions, garlic, celery, smoke turkey wings (or chop up pieces of smoke turkey legs) salt & pepper to taste, even add a lil bit of jalenpos, you’ll have a fabulous meal to serve over rice. VERY yummy.Bon appetite! Marla, Your Personal Chef

   Here is a list of some great crock-pot recipes. They are Weight Watcher recipes, but they are so good that I would eat them even if I wasn’t doing WW!

   I use http://southernfood.about.com/library/crock/blcpidx.htm to find the best crockpot recipes. Here is my favourite:

   A pulled pork recipe made with pork roast and barbecue sauce, along with onions and other seasonings. Scroll down to see more pork rost recipes.
   INGREDIENTS:

   * 4 lb pork roast
   * 2 onions, sliced, divided
   * 1 onion, chopped
   * 5 or 6 whole cloves
   * 2 cups water
   * 16 oz bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce
   * salt and pepper

   PREPARATION:
   Place one sliced onion at the bottom of Crock Pot.
   Stud pork roast with cloves and season with salt and pepper.
   Place roast in slow cooker on top of the sliced onion. Cover with the second sliced onion and add enough water to fill Crock Pot two thirds of the way.
   Cover and cook on low 8 to 12 hours.
   Remove roast.

   Remove and discard cloves, bone and fat as well as any water, onions and grease remaining in pot.
   When pork roast is cool enough to handle, use a fork or your fingers to pull it apart until the entire roast is shredded.
   Return the pulled pork to the crockpot. Mix in the chopped onion and BBQ sauce and cover. Heat on high for 1-3 hours or until the onions are soft.
   Serve on large, crusty buns with a mustard based Carolina-style BBQ sauce. Garnish with dill pickle spears, thinly sliced raw onion and pickled pepperoncini (Italian banana peppers). Serve with crisp, homemade slaw. Carolinians would put the cole slaw on the pulled pork sandwiches..that’s up to you.

   NOTE: The above is the original recipe I was given. I have cooked the roast on high instead of low when I was in a hurry and didn’t have that long. I have also done the last past on low and left to heat while we were at church and then it was ready to eat when we got home. I used a BBQ sauce that was very thick the first time and it was pretty dry, so since then I add a little water to it and it turns out perfect.
