Easy roast beef recipe - posted by mom2kids247

beef roast
1/2 C brown sugar
1 pkg onion soup mix
1/2 water (I usually use about 2-4 C)
1 chopped onion
1 pinch garlic powder
Salt and Pepper

Sear roast in hot pan with about 1/4 cup oil (all sides)
put into crock pot with all other ingredients. cook on low I usually put mine on about 10 pm and let it cook all night and day. Just need to watch the liquid content that is why I use more water.

This is so good and smells the house up yummy at night. Just don't make it on Fast Sunday.

Serve with homemade rolls.

Kim's Cream Cheese Chicken - Crockpot

posted by m3kp

1/2 cup onion, chopped
2 T butter or margarine, melted
1-1/2 twirls vermicelli, broken
2 cups rice
1 teaspoon garlic
5 cups chicken broth
dash salt
dash pepper
8 ounces cream cheese
1 package Italian dressing mix
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 package sliced mushrooms
15 chicken tenders (or 5-6 chicken breasts)

Saute vermicelli in butter until light brown. Add onion, garlic, mushrooms and rice. Saute 1 minute. Set aside.

In the blender, mix cream cheese, soup, Italian dressing, salt and pepper and chicken broth (I start out with 3 cups of broth and add more if there is room - otherwise I add the remaining chicken broth to the crockpot later).

Spray the crockpot with cooking spray. Pit the rice mixture in the bottom of the crockpot. Place chicken on top of the rice. Pour the mixture in the blender (adding any additional chicken broth that would not fit in the blender) over the chicken and rice. Cook on low for 4-6 hours (in my new crockpot).

Takes a few minutes in the morning, but complete meal with a quick veggie in the evening if you are all arriving home late and are famished.

Crockpot Roast

posted by krisis

1 roast thingy (we used a 3.5 lb one)
1 package dry brown gravy mix
1 package dry Italian dressing mix
1 package dry Ranch dressing mix
1/2 cup water

Mix the dry mixes together and use it as a rub for the beef. Pour the water in the crockpot and dump the rest of the mix in the water. Cook on low for 7-9 hours. We also put new potatoes in there and next time I'm going to use carrots and onions. It was delicious!

Fantastic Cream Cheese Chicken - Crockpot

Posted by moosee

Place 4-6 chicken breasts in a crockpot (it doesn't even matter if they are still frozen-this recipe is so forgiving!) Sprinkle one package of Good Seasons Italian salad dressing mix (dry) over the top. Cook on low all day (6-8 hours) (I have a crockpot from the early 90's--is that considered old?). One hour before serving, pour out the "chicken juice" that has formed and whisk it with one package of softened cream cheese and one can of cream of mushroom soup. Pour the mixture back in to the chicken in the crockpot and let it melt for an hour. Serve over rice or noodles. This is melt-in-your-mouth yummy!

Note: My family loves the Cream Cheese Chicken as well. We make it a little different - I put the soup, cream cheese (cut it into chunks) and the Italian dressing mix in the blender or use my hand blender and add everything at the beginning with the chicken and cook it all day. - m3kp

Crockpot - Stew

Crockpot - Stew (posted by cmomgo)

Stew

1-2 lbs stew meat, or cheap steak, cubed
flour
2 packages dry onion soup mix
2 c. water
carrots, potatoes, peas, whatever you want to add.

Dredge meat in flour, fry in hot oil until well browned. Throw everything in the crock pot, and cook on high for 3-5 hours, or low for 5-7 hours.

Good thick gravy for biscuits or bread! I have another recipe for chicken cacciatore (Italian chicken- yumm-o), but I'll have to get it later!

Crockpot - Lasagna

Crockpot Lasagna (posted by m3kp)

Combine 1 pound browned ground beef with 1 bottle spaghetti sauce (I use Prego - not the small bottle and not the Costco size) - set aside

Combine 1 pint of cottage cheese and 1 egg - mix until egg is totally mixed in - set aside

Combine 2-3 cups mozerella cheese and about 1/2 cup parmesean cheese - set aside

Spray crockpot with cooking spray.
Put 1/4 of the meat mixture on the bottom -
top with a layer of uncooked lasagna noodles (it takes 3 noodles for my crockpot) -
on top of the noodles spread 1/3 of the cottage cheese mix -
then layer another 1/4 of the meat mix and finally
top with 1/3 of the cheese mixture -
repeat 2 more times - noodles, cottage cheese, meat and then cheese.

Cover and cook on low - time will depend on your crockpot - my old one it was 7-8 hours. My newer crockpot (3 years old) cooks hotter and so it only takes 3-4.

Add a tossed salad and some garlic toast and quick easy dinner.

Chicken Salsa

(posted by mcteri123)

Brown some chicken breast on both sides, ( really any pieces of chicken are fine)
You can season with cummin if you have it and like it, other wise, salt and pepper will do.
Throw them in the crock pot, cover in a jar of your favorite salsa.

A few minutes before serving, mix in a small container of sour cream and some cheese, mix it, and there ya go. We serve it over rice and serve green beans and pineapple. It is one of my favorites!!
