I love to use my slow cooker - has anyone got any good recipes?  I got the one for Shrimp Creole & can't wait to try it!

This is a great way to prepare easy foods in advance -- and often with less fat.  I suggest you check the library for SlowCooker cook books and photocopy some recipes that look good. 

I'm sure others will post some recipes here too.

 Hi    One of my favorites is Salsa Chicken.   I just put frozen boneless, skinless, chicken breasts in the bottom of my crock pot and top with a jar of salsa.   Cook on low for 6-8 hours.   Serve with a salad or you can shred and serve on a tortilla and wrap it up.    Very good.

 Hi do you have an web address or can you post the recipe? Thanks

 Chicken/Peppers/Salsa

6 frozen skinless/bonless chicken breasts (YES - frozen!)
1 jar of your favorite salsa
1 green pepper, sliced in rings
Sliced onion if desired

Layer ingredients beginning with a little salsa in the crockpot.
Cook on low for 8 hours.

This would be good served with some shredded cheese and a dollop of sourcream. It would also be a good filling for lowcarb tortillas.

 Thanks for sharing!

 yum, yum. we will have this during this week! thank you!

Thank you soo much for sharing - this really sounds like a very tasty dish!  I will definately try this one this week.

 I recently made my spaghetti in my crock pot.

1 jar spaghetti sauce, whole wheat noodles, frozen turkey meatballs

I added the sauce first , noodles next (broken in half or more and not cooked) , then the frozen meatballs.  I also added onions, peppers (whatever else you would use if making on stovetop). Season to taste. 

Put on low to medium and let cook.  All the noodles were cooked and not hard everything was just right.
