This looks easy...

i assume the chicken tenders are not cooked at all first

what about the mashed potatoes - cook them on the stovetop first?

Made an easy and yummy recipe last night that even my finicky kids liked:

Shepherd's Pie

2 lbs. chicken tenders
1 bag frozen mixed veggies
1 jar brown gravy

Add to crockpot and cook on low for 8 hours. During last half hour, top with mashed potatoes and cook for 30 additional minutes.

Here's one I got from Facebook recently. Made it for dinner this week. It was super easy and sooooooo good - whole family LOVED it! Hope it's not on here already.

Crock Pot Potato Soup

one 30 oz bag cubed hash browns
two 14 oz cans chicken broth
one 10.75 oz can cream of chicken soup (I used low fat)
1/2 cup chopped onion (I used frozen chopped onion)
1/3 tsp ground pepper
one 8 oz package cream cheese (I used low fat)
Garnish: Oscar Meyer real bacon bits, chopped green onion, low fat shredded cheddar cheese.

1) Put all but cream cheese and garnishes in crock pot
2) Cook on low for 5 hours
3) Stir in cream cheese, cook and stir for 30 more minutes.

I doubled the recipe and the whole pot was GONE in 2 days! YUM!

I made this last night and it was a huge hit at our house!

I used boneless thighs and the meat was falling apart, not much shredding required.

Love my crockpots! Used one three times this week.

Made Chili

Pot Roast

and Pulled Pork....used McCormick's Seasoning Packet for Sweet and Smoky Pulled Chicken. It was SO yummy. Had no chicken so I made it with pork. Kids loved it. Had it on rolls with cole slaw on the side.

We made this recently. It was great. We used brown rice. If anything I would just have cooked it in the oven, or skipped the brown rice in the crockpot and just served it over rice. The rice made it kind of mushy since it was all in the crock together.
