Creamy Wild Rice Pilaf for the Crock Pot

Mon, 14 Jul 2003 20:02:26 -0400

I loved finding a rice recipe for the crock pot that can cook by itself and then be served at dinner time with some quickly grilled or baked chicken or fish. It is from BHG Slow Cooker Recipes. -- posted by Geema

Italian-Style Stuffed Zucchini Squash (Crock Pot)

Thu, 26 Aug 2004 20:00:10 -0400

I love summer squash with tomato sauce and Italian herbs, and this healthy vegetarian/vegan dish is so simple to prepare, very filling and delicious. It comes from vegetarian.about.com, and I didn't change too much about it. Originally it called for fresh herbs, but I really don't like using fresh herbs in the crock pot, so I used dried instead, and then just threw a few fresh leaves on top before serving. The toasted pine nuts add a lot to this - I don't recommend omitting them. I was worried about the squash falling apart since I had to leave it in the crock pot well past the suggested cooking time - 9 hours - so I wrapped the zucchini halves in foil before putting them in. It worked great - the squash was very soft, but still together, and the rice was not overcooked at all. The original recipe says it serves four, but I think as a main course it is perfect for two. Putting a little dairy or soy mozzarella or Parmesan on top before serving is nice. This just needs a green salad and maybe some bread to complete the meal. The filling would also probably be great inside bell peppers. -- posted by Vino Girl

Fiesta Chicken With Barley and Brown Rice (Crock Pot)

Sat, 09 Apr 2005 10:41:29 -0400

I came up with this when I couldn't decide between chicken cacciatore or something more Tex-Mex. I also wanted a "real" meal without having to work too hard at it. We really enjoyed this. Other cuts of chicken can be used, although I recommend staying away from boneless skinless breasts because I think they tend to dry out in a slow cooker. Since every one's crock pots heat differently and grains can be tricky to cook in a CP, you may have to fool a little bit with the timing on the rice and barley. You could also make that separately and just add it in at serving time. Cooked the way I did it, it almost had a risotto-like texture to it. -- posted by Vino Girl

Turkey and Brown Rice Chili

Wed, 28 Jun 2006 08:30:36 -0400

This is a slow cooker recipe. This is a lower-fat chili because it is made with ground turkey breast. Make sure that you are buying ground turkey BREAST and not ground turkey, which includes both light and dark meat and will be higher in fat. If you use ground beef instead of the turkey, you won't need the oil to cook it in. -- posted by KittyKitty

Crocked Brown Rice on a Budget

Fri, 02 Feb 2007 12:54:03 -0500

I threw this together and prayed! I am paid in 2 days and needed a good, easy and economical meal with what I had on hand. You can use regular corn and change the spicing to go Italian, Spanish, Mexican etc. I loved what came out and well enough to add to my 'weekend cook for the week' menu. You can also add chicken or any leftover meat to this and shrimp would work as well if added near the end of cooking. This is the only recipe I have ever posted where I will say ''use it as a springboard.'' I can tell you one thing; I have never had more fluffy or soft brown rice in my life. c.\2007 -- posted by Miss Elizabeth

Chicken & Rice for the Slow Cooker

Wed, 31 Oct 2007 17:12:17 -0400

A easy to throw together in the morning, ready when you get home meal. I use chicken thighs instead of breasts because they tend to stay moist and do not get overcooked & dry if you come home later than planned. I call for brown rice, but am planning to try wild rice. I would not use white rice, as it may get too mushy. -- posted by Chandra M

Chihuahua Crock Pot Meal

Mon, 17 Dec 2007 02:39:33 -0500

This easy recipe just about fills up our six quart crock pot, and lasts our two 8lb. Chihuahuas for quite a while. I freeze all the leftovers into pre-measured servings so all I have to do is defrost the next day's meal overnight in the fridge. -- posted by BoBoquet'sCook

I find this recipe to be very flavorful and easy to prepare. My Littles always like it. I use a low sodium chicken broth and low fat cream of mushroom soup. The rice comes out very creamy and the chicken is always tender and delicious. Great hearty meal for fall, or anytime. -- posted by Jcooks4HisLittles
