Running outside to throw more wood on the fire every hour sounds like a lot of work. What happens if I take a nap? BTW- what is a pre-warmed cooler?



Thanks for the recipes. Keep em coming.

It's part of the fun for me, I keep a temp alarm just in case I fall asleep! The pre-warmed cooler is just an Igloo or Coleman cooler that I place jugs of hot water into to bring the temps up. Food safety, ya know.

This is like the slow children at play. Where are all the fast ones? What I am getting at is were are the fast cooking recipe's

Too funny!

Can you tell I love my crockpot?

Yep, thanks for all the great recipes!

this is DEADLY!

1 box chocolate cake mix

1 large box chocolate pudding

6 ounces chocolate chips

1/3 cup vegetable oil

3 eggs

6 oz. sour cream

1/2 c water

Mix cake mix, pudding mix together. Beat eggs and add oil, water. Add wet to dry and mix well. Add sour cream, and mix. Add chocolate chips.

Pour into well greased crock pot. Place a paper towel between the top of the crock and the lid to catch the excess moisture.

This is a new one I will have to try!! Thanks.

Crock pot chicken

I made this last week, too - yummy!!

4 chicken breasts
1/4 cup butter
1 pkg. dry Italian dressing mix
1 can herb cream of chicken soup
1 (8oz) pkg cream cheese, diced
4 cups rice

In crock pot, combine chicken, butter, and dressing. Cook on LOW 6-8 hours. Last half hour, add soup and cream cheese. Serve over rice.

NOTE: I didn't trust the chicken to cook in *just* butter all day, so I added the soup right away and put just the cream cheese in later. It turned out GREAT!!

I did this today,except I used lipton garlic something mix and sour cream
then about an hour before I added my rice and it turned out so good.Oh I added water w/the soup and stuff this morning.

Mango, honey, you need the Southern Living Crock-Pot cookbook.

Chili is my most absolute favorite thing. I don't have a magic recipe, except that I rely on Chili-O seasoning to take care of the chili powder, etc for me. Just ground beef (I use 1/2 beef and 1/2 ground turkey), a couple of cans of diced tomatos, rinsed and drained black beans, rinsed and drained red beans, tomato sauce, and salt. Maybe a little bit of water to loosen it up.

If we've managed to turn you on to boiled peanuts, like the ones that were at the soiree, but you can't get "green" peanuts in NY:

I bag jumbo raw peanuts
1/2 cup salt
Combine in 5 to 6 quart slow cooker and add water to cover. Cook on High for about 18 hours. Check water level every four hours or so, as they soak it up. I nearly fried the last batch I did! Can then pack and freeze for upcoming events requiring boiled peanuts.

As I am normally in no mood to cook, much less to cook chicken just to add to a recipe calling for cooked chicken, I also buy chicken breasts on sale and throw 6-7 of them in at a time, season liberally with seasoned salt, and seasoned pepper, turn it to low, and let them go. Assuming the males in my home don't eat it all before I get back, I chop up the meat and freeze it.

One thing to be careful about...more than once, I have gotten up early and put an excellent meal in the crockpot, only to have my spouse call my office two hours later to ask if I meant to plug it in and turn it on.

This sounds like me always calling mr. dd on my way to work and asking him to check my flat iron...to make sure I turned it off.

there are a lot of ingredients - but you really do just throw it all in & cook!

Tortilla Soup

Ingredients:

1 pound shredded, cooked chicken
1 (15 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes, mashed
1 (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce
1 medium onion, chopped
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chili peppers
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups water
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 (10 ounce) package frozen corn
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
7 corn tortillas
vegetable oil
ripe avacado sliced

Place chicken, tomatoes, enchilada sauce, onion, green chiles, and garlic into a slow cooker.

Pour in water and chicken broth, and season with cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Stir in corn and cilantro. Cover, and cook on Low setting for 6 to 8 hours or on High setting for 3 to 4 hours.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Lightly brush both sides of tortillas with oil. Cut tortillas into strips, then spread on a baking sheet.

Bake in preheated oven until crisp, about 10 to 15 minutes. To serve, sprinkle tortilla strips over soup. Garnish with the sliced avacado.
