I have LOTS of slow cooker recipes...let me know what you might be interested in (chicken, beef,pork,etc) and I can post some.
A family fav that never gets old is Pork in mushroom soup (sounds bland but not the way I make it) I use boneless pork chops ( I have an aversion to bones!!) but you can use whatever you want. I usually chop them into bite size pieces first. In a separate bowl, combine mushroom soup, with any spices you like (garlic powder or fresh, salt, pepper) parmesan cheese and I add diced onion & red pepper. Pour into slow cooker, add pork and cook on low about 8 hours. Serve with pasta (bowtie, penne,etc) Enjoy

I would be mostly interested in Any beef recipes,as we just butchered our own beef and this one seems to have "Tough" or "hard" meat.
But I'm also looking for other recipes too.Artificial Colors & Flavours in almost all our food... You should be concerned.Everyone should watch this...

My favourite is the slow cooker Lasagna from one of the Krart What's Cooking Magazines, the best ever. And it is so easy.

This is my most favorite slow cooker recipe:
Beef on a Bun!
beef roast
1/2 cup water
place in crock pot night before for 10-12 hours.
1/2 cup Ketchup
1/2 cup water
1 tsp. chili powder
1 1/2 Tbsp. Worchestershire sauce
2 Tbsp. Vinegar
1 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. Sugar
1 tsp. Dry mustard
1 medium onion, finely chopped
mix together night before and put in fridge.
In the morning take roast out of pot and shred with fork
place back in pot
add sauce
mix together
cook until mealtime
And it's done!!! Easy breezey!!!!!
I usually double up on the sauce and add more a few hours before supper time if it needs it and serve on kaiser bunds! My family loves this!

Here's one post by "Imack30" in one of my other threads...
Sounds very good! Thanks Imack30!
Cut pork into bite size pieces. Throw into crockpot. Add 1/2-1 package of taco seasoning and a couple of tbsp of flour. Next, add 1/2 jar of salsa and mix altogether. Throw in sliced peppers and onions and cook all day on low.
Serve in warm tortillas with cheese, sour cream & salsa. So easy because the crock pot does all the work for you and smells delicious.Artificial Colors & Flavours in almost all our food... You should be concerned.Everyone should watch this...

Here is a winner in our home!
Sweet N Sour Sausage Cabbage Casserole
Six Honey Garlic Sausages, chopped in pieces
1/2 bag of bagged coleslaw
1 bottle of VH Honey Garlic Sauce
1 cup water
1 cup Minute rice
1/2 lb bacon, cooked
Outside of the bacon which we cook before hand, we dump everything in the slow cooker, and cook on high 3-4 hours. We ensure there is enough liquid, as you can always add more bagged coleslaw if too much liquid.

Here is the recipe for Pulled Pork:
4-5 lbs Boneless Pork Loin
2 large Onions
5 whole cloves
2 cups water
2 bottles BBQ Sauce (I use the Diana Sauce Bottles)
Chop 1 onion and layer it on the bottom of your Crock Pot. Add Pork, water & cloves, cover and cook 6 hrs on high and than 6 hrs on low. Remove pork from pot and discard any water that may remain, onions, cloves and fat. Add pork back to pot and shred the meat with forks. Dice 1 onion and add to pot along with 2 bottles of BBQ Sauce and mix together. Cover and cook on low for 2.5 - 4 hrs.
Serve on Buns or eat as is. I use a large oval crock pot that I beleive is 4 or 5 litres.

A few people messaged me about my Beanless Chili recipe so here it is
4 lbs lean ground beef
2 cups diced celery (or green peppers)
4 x 28 oz cans of Crushed Tomatoes
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1.5 tsp cayenne pepper
1.5 tsp ground cumin
1.5 tsp chili powder
1 can tomato paste
Brown beef in skillet and drain fat. Add canned tomatoes to Crock Pot and than add spices and mix. Add remaining ingredients and stir. Cook on high for 2 hours or on low for 4.
** Sometimes I use canned whole plumb tomatoes instead of crushed and just mash them in the crock pot with a potato masher before I add anything else. Also make sure to incorporate the tomato paste well.
I cook this amount in a large oval crock pot that is I believe 4 litres. It serves many people I assure you! Serve with Sour Cream or Shredded Cheese.

I could not live without my slowcooker LOL
I cannot think of much off the top of my head but will have to go through my recipes. But I do have one for you
spray your crockpot with pam. put down chicken breasts..however many you need. put a sliced swiss cheese on the top. then take a box of stuffing(i love the cornbread one) and mix it with a can of cream of mushroom soup mixed with a little bit of water and pour that over chicken. we love the stuffing part so I usually double it.
then cook on low.
I have the exact recipe somewhere so will try and hunt for it later but thats pretty much all there is to it
its super yummy!!
