Crockpot



Recommended Posts

Green Chili chicken

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or however many you need)

1 can green chili enchilada sauce

sliced onions, optional

Throw everything in the crockpot. Cook on low 6 hours or so. If you are pressed for time, you can cook on high for about 4 hours, but the sauce tends to burn around the edge.

Shred chicken with two forks and have on tacos, tostadas, or burritos. Also great the next day on salad.

Okay here is my easy Potroast:

1 Lean Beef Roast (choose your style, butt, shoulder, etc)

1 Pk Lipton Onion Soup Mix

1 Can Cream of Mushroom Soup

I always start mine in the morning (if you cook overnight you are just torturing yourself!). Add Roast to cooker (fat side up) and dump in remaining ingredients. Cook on low heat for 8 hours. One hour before serving add Carrotts, Potatos, (any veggie you want). It's so good. and tender. Love It!

You know everyone in my family calls me the "crock pot queen", lol. I guess because I pretty much cook EVERYTHING in the crockpot. I have three crock pots and sometimes have them all going at once. lol. I cook dessert, bfast, you name it, it goes in the crockpot, even meatloaf. so yummy. Here is some of my favorites:

Smothered Meatloaf:

Ingredients

  • 4 cups Potatoes O'Brien (recommended: Ore-Ida)
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 1/4 pounds ground pork
  • 1 (5.29-ounce) box Garlic Herb shake and Bake (recommended: Kraft)
  • 1 (1.1-ounce) envelope Beefy Onion Soup Mix (recommended: Lipton)
  • 1 (4.5-ounce) jar Sliced Mushrooms, drained (recommended: Green Giant)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 (12-ounce) can condensed Cheddar soup, divided
  • 1/2 cup evaporated milk
  • 1 (10-ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 onion, sliced thin
  • 1 (8-ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms

Directions

Place potatoes in the bottom of a 5-quart slow cooker.

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, shake and bake, onion soup mix, sliced mushrooms, and egg. Set aside.

In a small bowl, stir together 1/2 cup Cheddar soup and evaporated milk. Add to meat mixture. Using a wooden spoon or clean hands mix thoroughly and form into a loaf. Place in slow cooker on top of the potatoes. Make sure meatloaf does not touch the sides of the slow cooker.

Stir together remaining cheddar soup with cream of mushroom soup. Pour over meatloaf. Top with onions and mushrooms.

Cover and cook on HIGH setting for 1 hour. Reduce the temperature to LOW setting and cook for an additional 5 to 6 hours.

I have made it with just beef and left out the pork, still good. I have also made it without the potatoes, its wonderful.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
