T O P I C R E V I E WJunethirdHey everyone...!!I just got a new crockpot... And i was wondering if anyone had any yummy stews/roast/pasta recipes they would like to share with me.I have a hearty man in my future to feed and keep nice and plump charmainecWith stews, the sky's the limit.. beef stew, chicken stew, veggie stews.. Will add a few later. ------------------ quote:Remember, love can conquer the influences of the planets....It can even eliminate karma. Linda GoodmancharmainecOh, there's already a thread for it. Will add it there.JunethirdAwesome thanx!!!The crockpot came with a little recipe book but my roast beef came out still pretty pinkish in the middle/inside... It only has 3 temp settings so i dunno if maybe i should exchange it for a diff one.RandallI like it a little pink inside. ------------------"Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you." Rebecca ClarkJunethirdLol... But it looked like a lot of pink... With beef its not sombad, but what if it had been chicken? That wouldnt have been very good. Do you think maybe i need to cut it up in half so it cooks more thoroughly?DreamweaverHey Junethird, if you are still looking for recipes, here are some of the recipes I use that my boys love which take minimal prep. Crock pot roast BEEF2 (10 3/4 ounce) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup 1 (1 ounce) package dry onion soup mix1 1/4 cups water 5 1/2 lbs pot roast Directions: 1 In a slow cooker, mix cream of mushroom soup, dry onion soup mix and water. 2 Place pot roast in slow cooker and coat with soup mixture. 3 Cook on High setting for 3 to 4 hours, or on Low setting for 8 to 9 hours.It is more tender if you do the low setting. Also add chopped up vegies - potato, carrots & onions underneath meat if you like. My boys also love Ribs. Just slice a couple of onions (or more depending on how big your crockpot is but make sure the base is covered) & place in bottom of crockpot. Place your ribs on top of onions & drizzle a fair amount of BBQ sauce over the meat. Sometimes I add freshly squuezed orange juice & extra brown sugar if not enough bbq sauce. Cook on low heat for 8 hrs & enjoy! JunethirdOoooh!! Delish!! Thank you!! I will try the ribs this weekend and let you know quote:Originally posted by Dreamweaver:Hey Junethird, if you are still looking for recipes, here are some of the recipes I use that my boys love which take minimal prep.

BROWN meat in large skillet; drain. Stir in spaghetti sauce and water. Mix ricotta, 1-1/2 cups mozzarella, 2 Tbsp. Parmesan, egg and parsley.
SPOON 1 cup meat sauce into slow cooker; top with layers of half each of the noodles (broken to fit) and cheese mixture. Cover with 2 cups meat sauce. Top with remaining noodles (broken to fit), cheese mixture and meat sauce. Cover with lid.

As for chicken, if you like shredded chicken tacos, soft or hard, think chicken legs+thigh portions:
-3 pds defrosted chicken (remove skin)-3 cans stewed tomatoes-Season to taste, prefer cilantro, oregano, cayenne pepper, and sugar or honey
Fill crock pot with ingredients, set on medium or high for at least 6 hours, 8 would be better. That seems vague but you will get the sense of how long they should cook.
The great thing about using a crocpot is if you go 8 hrs, they still will come out fine, a crock pot is very forgiving in that sense as what it amounts to is a low pressurized pressure cooker, everything comes out moist and succulent.
And then debone and you will have about a pound or so of BBQ'd shredded chicken, it is good for everything from soft tacos to putting on the cheapy pizzas to even adding to pasta.

I only use sage on roast pork but it might be good.
