Sorry if ya'll have done this already & I'm on the slow uptake, but I thought that since we're all approching our 8th month, we'd have some recipe's we could share with each other. I'm particularly interested in Slow Cooker recipes. But here I'll start off...

1 lb. boneless brisket or chicken/turkey breasts (6)

1 package of DRY spicy jalapeno salad dressing (I got it at the $1 store)

6 potatoes (skinned & cubed'ish)

1 small package of frozen carrots

1 head of celery

1/4 c milk

1 T Butter/Margarine

In fridge (overnight) marinate the brisket/breasts in salad dressing package & Water (enough to 1/2 cover) turn midway through marinating

Next day, cook ALL DAY on low the meat, marinade mixture, potatoes, carrots & celery.

Make sure to cook the brisket (fatty side up). The potatoes, carrots and celery will be really really soft.

If desired & u like taste: take out all veggies and place in bowl. With electric mixer mix veggies together w/a little bit of broth from cooker, very tad bit of milk (use more if needed for bigger veggies) & "I can't believe it's not butter."

To me it's really really tasty. You get ur Protein & veggies all in one, and the slow cooker keeps in all the minerals & Vitamins that you would lose in boiling or microwaving.

Tell me if u like it or not.

Oh, yeah, instead of water you can substitue that with chicken or beef broth. I did that last time, and forgot.

I just came up with this one the other day.

1/2 carton of Ricotta cheese

5 packets splenda

1 scoop of Protein powder (i use nectar, chocolate)

Mix all together and you have a low carb. HIGH protein snack! About 40-45 grams protein from my calculations!

Nice, yummy, sweet, creamy, etc.
