Tederized pork cutlets. Fill crock half full of water. add celery cut up finely. quarter potatoes and carrots and pork and 3 can cream of mushroom. Season to taste.




Big tip for saving time get crock pot liners they really work well and clean up is so easy!
Also if you plan on making lots of crock pot dinner on your day off cut up an onion and some celery and put them in a plastic bag and freeze them. When you go to use the it will save lots of time.

I like to use the Schilling Slow Cookers
http://www.mccormick.com/Products/Seasoning-Mixes/Slow-Cookers.aspx

I just brown the meat and toss in the crock with water, the spice packet and whatever veggies.

If you flour-dredge and brown your chicken pieces before adding to the crock with the chicken noodle soup packet , all you need to do is make up a quick dumpling recipe and plop in while you get settled in and you have chicken and dumplings with a nice gravy.

For the beef stew or Pot Roast packets , I add a cup of red wine and an extra 2 cups water or beef broth and some barley and you have a great beef barley soup. Iuse these becasue I have not been able toi find the Vegetable beef soup one.

The packets saves you a ton of time measuring out spices etc. And if you find them on sale (I found them once at 2/$1) stock up.

Toss a roast (beef or pork) in there, dump a bottle of barbeque sauce on top and let it go all day... pulled pork or beef sandwiches for dinner!

Someone mentioned the packets... I LOVE the flavor of the beef stroganoff ones.

I have also fallen in love with some Wildtree products for the slow cooker... like the "Wicked Good slow cooker sauce" and the chicken catchiatorre sauce. YUM! You have to order those though (online or from a home party).

I'll take two large or 4 medium boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about a pound to pound and a half total), cut them into cubes and put it into the crock put with a jar of Mrs. Renfro's peach salsa (mmmm yummy), a little water, about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of quinoa. Turn it on, go to work, come home 8-10 hours later & dinner's ready.
