I need some crock pot ideas!

[nathaliabrown]

I just started work from being at home for 5 years. I am used to being able to cook as I please and I can't anymore! I can't afford to eat out all the time for a family of 5. So please let me know your favorite crock pot recipes or quick meals that are yummy! Thanks

That is a great site for recipes.

I have a crockpot but I also have a pressure cooker which I absolutely love. It's made by Cuisinart and it's electric. I make some great meals in there and probably use it about 3 times a week.

There's also a huge thread here on the DIS on the Cooking subforum over on the Just For Fun Board. It might be under a category called something like "Creative" - I can't check right now, I'm answering in this thread .

Seriously makes the best chicken broth EVER and I use the chicken for other simple recipes.

A family favorite:
French Dip Sandwiches
Ingredients:
1 (4 pound) boneless beef roast
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 beef bouillon cube
1 bay leaf
3 whole black peppercorns
1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon garlic powder
French bread slices
Directions:
Remove and discard all visible fat from the roast. Place trimmed roast in a slow cooker.
In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, bouillon, bay leaf, peppercorns, rosemary, thyme, and garlic powder. Pour mixture over roast, and add enough water to almost cover roast. Cover, and cook on Low heat for 10 to 12 hours, or until meat is very tender.
Remove meat from broth, reserving broth. Shred meat with a fork, and distribute on bread for sandwiches. Used reserved broth for dipping.
