My Mom got an old CrockPot recipe book from the late 60's at the OutReach Program where she volunteers... I was looking thru it yesterday and it has some really great stuff... recipes you don't see anymore... I'll have to see if I can put some in word and then post here... In the meantime, this Recipes Forum has quite a few good crockpot ones... Just look for "slowcooker" in the titles...

caribbeanscout said: your son cooks? must run through the family. that's impressive, as most guys i know don't know how to fry an egg. now post away... i enjoy your recipes. My interest in cooking really started when I was at Villanova... (although I had cooked at a number of places on LI before then, but I really wasn't into it that much)... I lived in a house with seven other frat brothers, and we'd each take a night and cook for all... My first specialty was a loaded Pizza Steak... much like a Phila. Cheese Steak, but with steak-ums, marinara & mozzarela, and onions, black olives, peppers & mushrooms... and that's all anyone wanted when it was my turn to cook... I learned it from working at Pizza Palace in Bryn Mawr...

caribbeanscout said: ok i don't want to hijack this thread, so would you mind posting that recipe maybe as a new post? that sounds delicious! i was planning on making pizza sauce in the slowcooker tonight and would love to try out your recipe. had NO idea frat boys cooked... thought it was purely liquid diet. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Wink.gif" alt="" /> Oh Gosh... its sooo easy... Basically, get some hoagie (or sub, or grinder) rolls and split lengtwise... leaving a little so it is still one... Saute onions, olives, peppers (hot & mild, or all mild, or whatever you want) and mushrooms and some oregano... til just cooked... Cook steak-ums (about 2 servings per, which would be 4 steak-ums), and chop them as you cook... Preparation... toast hoagie rolls on open side only, til just browned... spread a thin layer of sauce on each side... put down the cooked steak-ums... top with the saute'd mixture... top with a little more sauce... then a bunch of shreaded mozzarella... Place under the broiler til cheese melts... YUMMM....

I love soups & stews and what better way to make them than in the crockpot? Dump everything in before leaving the house in the morning and return home to a wonderful dinner!! If leaving more than 4 hours I'd recommend cooking on low.
Spicy Chicken Stew
Ingredients 2 potatoes (about 1 1/2 lb.), peeled and cut into chunks (3 1/3 cups) 1 (10 oz.) package frozen sweet corn 2 stalks celery, chopped 2 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks (1 cup) 1 onion, thickly sliced 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 (12.5 oz.) jar salsa 2 teaspoons kosher salt 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin 1 teaspoon chile powder 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 1 skinless, boneless chicken breast, halved (about 1 lb.) 4 skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 10.5 oz.) 2 1/2 cups chicken broth Preparation Place potatoes, corn, celery, carrots, onion and garlic in slow cooker. Stir in salsa, salt, cumin, chile powder and pepper. Distribute chicken evenly on top of vegetables and pour chicken broth over chicken. Cover slow cooker and cook stew on high for 4 hours.
Transfer chicken to a plate and shred with two forks into bite-size chunks; return to slow cooker. Serve warm topped with tortilla chips & dollop of sour cream. Warm & yummy! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" />

I like that... good combination of spices and chicken! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" />
BTW... I sometimes will substitute a jar of Bruschetta toppings for salsa in recipes... a bit thicker, and a whole variety of flavors available... from a basic tomato based one to artichoke, anchovy (<img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Sick.gif" alt="" /> IMO) and olive based Bruchettas...
