Basil Chicken Merlot With Wild Mushrooms

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 13:24:56 -0400

From crockpot.com Posted as written I use chicken breast and it is very good, just make sure you poke the chicken before so that it does not dry out and check it occasioanlly if possible to prevent drying out. This is not for crock pots that only have the heat element in the bottom. Cook time depends if you cook it high or low. Low will produce better results. -- posted by SarahBeth131

Crock Pot BBQ Chicken & Peppers

Tue, 22 Sep 2009 13:34:50 -0400

I use this recipe many different ways...sometimes I make rice and serve the whole chicken breast on top w/ leftover sauce or I shred and use in BBQ sandwiches! I always like a little crunch in my sandwiches so that's why I've added the peppers, they are sweet and cut thin so they don't take away from the chicken! I have also used the leftovers in roll-ups for lunches...so many possibilities. -- posted by Rollin in the Dough!

Prize Winning 3 Bean Chili

Wed, 23 Sep 2009 15:20:56 -0400

Well, this is the result of being "volunteered" to represent my husband's motorcycle club in an annual chili cookoff. I truely think the quality of your spices will determine the quality of the finished product so buy the best spices you can afford. I've found that the local health food stores often sell really good spices in bulk. This is not a terribly spicy chili but does pack a bit of a kick - adjust the spices to your taste. I did end up winning 1st place - over 42 other teams - not bad for less than a week's notice! I like to preassemble everything I'm going to need the night before - makes it easy to throw together the day of and just let it cook. -- posted by HSingARMYmom

Leftover Pork Tenderloin Crock Pot Chili

Thu, 24 Sep 2009 14:27:47 -0400

This recipe came out of a need to serve leftover pork tenderloin in a completely different way - my kids hate to eat leftovers of the "exact" same thing they ate the night before. I kept it pretty mild for tender palates, but you could certainly add any type of chiles, hot sauce, etc. Also, for the kids I put it into tortillas with cheese for burritos while my husband and I ate it in bowls as chili. The sky's the limit to the variations -- posted by 2hot2handle

Sweet Orange Glazed Pork Chops

Sun, 18 Oct 2009 09:37:14 -0400

I love chinese food and my crock pot, oh yeah, and pork chops, so this is what I came up with. It is sweet though, so if you don't really like that you can try cutting some of the brown sugar of course, but I'm sure that this will effect the glaze if you take out too much. Think of the sweetness of chinese orange sauce, like on orange chicken only on tender, slow cooked pork chops. I know it sounds like a little bit of work at the end but it's really not. Don't worry about putting the chops back in at the end if you don't want to, you could just put foil over your platter. I served mine on a bed of mashed sweet potatoes and parsnips (just boiled and mashed, but you could try puree) and a side of green beans. The colors of the mash and chops were great and I really feel like the sweetness of both were really good together. You may want to do 1/3 regular potatoe, 1/3 sweet potatoe (or yams), and 1/3 parsnips if you don't want it to be too sweet. I also think that this would be great on a pork loin too, shredded up with the glaze for like a sweet pulled pork sandwich, or maybe chunk up the chops with the glaze in a vegetable stir fry : ) -- posted by soulcandybt

At the time I'm posting this there are two other vegan baked bean recipes on the Zaar, both look really good.

Unfortunately not something I'm at all familiar with or have ever seen in the stores, but I found out a little more about it and replaced it with some nutritional yeast & liquid smoke. Adjust the heat as you wish. NOTE: Soak the beans ahead of time (night before). The cooking time doesn't reflect the overnight soaking of the beans, but it does reflect the crock pot cooking time if set to low. Hope you enjoy! -- posted by magpie diner

Hot Beef

This couldn't be easier. Use the cheapest cut of meat you can find - and it will be great. Any type of beer also. Freezes really well if you have any left over! -- posted by NancyB

Pork Roast to Die For

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 08:05:35 -0500

I needed something tender and delectable--moist and melt-in-your-mouth like, that didn't require a whole lot of fuss. One pork roast and a crock pot's help later, perfection. I can't even tell you. How. Good. It. Really. Is. NOTE: When I say "boneless pork roast," it must be one of a boneless "blade/Boston/shoulder" cut. Every store labels them differently, but look for at least one of these labels. If it doesn't say that, don't bother. The roast should be well marbled, and have a decent layer (1/4-inch?) of fat on one side. -- posted by Battle in Seattle
