Crack Chicken

Ingredients: 2 lb chicken breasts 16 oz. cream cheese ¼ Cup chicken stock or water 1 oz. dry ranch seasoning 16 oz. fried crispy bacon Instructions: In a slow cooker, add the chicken, cream cheese, chicken stock and ranch dressing Cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the chicken falls apart easily. Pull the chicken apart using two forks. Add the diced bacon and mix together until well combined. Serve & Enjoy Cooking Tips: If you need to make your own ranch dressing powder, then check out this awesome quick & easy ranch seasoning recipe. It’s easy to make with just using some basic dried herbs around the house. If you don’t have chicken breasts, then these can be replaced with chicken thigh. Personally, I would avoid chicken with the bone in as it will be hard to shred the chicken at the end. You may also end up with more gristly bits then you would like if you cook with bone in chicken. You can skip the chicken stock but the result may be a bit dryer depending on the cut of chicken you use. If for some reason, you don’t want the bacon then you can leave this out. I would avoid adding it to the slow cooker raw as it will not crisp up and the result will not be as nice.

Slow Cooker Shredded Mexican Chicken

INGREDIENTS 2 pounds chicken breasts 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/2 cup mild salsa (medium if you like spicy) 3-4 tablespoons brown sugar ** 1 4 oz. can mild diced green chilies 1 14.5 oz. can diced tomatoes, drained 1 tablespoon chili powder 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 1 tsp EACH ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, 1/2 tsp EACH smoked paprika, dry oregano, pepper 1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle chili pepper (optional for more heat) 1 teaspoons liquid smoke Hot sauce to taste INSTRUCTIONS Rub chicken breasts with oil and place in the bottom of your slow cooker. Add all of the remaining ingredients except for the hot sauce. Cook on high for 2-4 hours or on low for 6-7 hours or until chicken is tender enough to shred. Remove chicken to a cutting board, and let rest 5 minutes before shredding (there will be liquid remaining).

Chicken Adobo

3 to 5 pounds of chicken meat (see NOTE below) (bone-in or out is fine, your choice) 1/4 cup soy sauce (La Choy and Tamari wheat free are gluten free) 4 cloves garlic, chopped 1 teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar 4 bay leaves 1 1/2 cups shredded carrots 1 yellow onion, sliced in rings Directions. Use a 6-quart slow cooker. If you have the time to assemble the chicken in a plastic zipper bag with the salt, pepper, soy sauce, garlic, and vinegar the night before, do so. The chicken will be much more flavorful if left to marinate overnight. Then dump out in the morning on top of the vegetables. Otherwise, assemble everything in the morning. Cook on low for 7-8 hours, or on high for 4-5. This is done when the chicken is cooked through and has reached desired tenderness. NOTE: Chicken breast has very little fat and can sometimes have a "stringy and dry" texture. To rectify this, shred the chicken completely and give it 30 minutes or so to soak up the yummy sauce. Also, you can add a pat of butter or some olive oil to help with the dryness. (PS, this is why I like using thighs -- the dark meat has a bit more fat and oil which helps with "mouth feel".

White Beans and Ham Soup

Place all ingredients in crockpot. Cook on low for 8 hours. That’s it! lol Easy, huh? I think that’s a huge reason why I liked this recipe so much! I didn’t add extra salt b/c I wasn’t sure how salty the soup would be from the ham. The kids ate it fine without extra salt, but Kevin and I added a little sea salt to our bowls. We also ate it with some mini corn muffins – the Jiffy brand was on sale (not that it’s not already cheap) 2 for $0.95. This is the brand that my mother in law uses so it’s now my go-to brand. Parker thought he was getting a special treat b/c it was muffin shaped! lol Oh and next time, I’ll probably add some spinach to the soup to get some veggies worked into the soup!

Season the pork chops with salt, black pepper, and brown sugar (if using) to taste. Either cook immediately, or cover and refrigerate overnight. (Seasoning the night before will give your pork chops a deeper flavor, but isn’t necessary.) 2. Heat 1½ tablespoons of butter in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops on both sides until they’re golden brown, approximately 3 – 5 minutes per side. Add the seared chops to the slow cooker. (It’s OK to overlap the pork chops slightly, but don’t stack them on top of each other). 3. Add the remaining ½ tablespoon of butter to the sauté pan, followed by the sliced onions. Cook the onions until they begin to brown, about 3-5 minutes. Add the herbs and cook for another 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add the chicken broth, apple cider, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce to deglaze the pan. Stir everything to combine, and make sure to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Pour the cooking liquid and onions over the pork chops. 4. Cook for 4 – 5 hours on low or for 2 – 3 hours on high. 5. Remove the cooked pork chops from the slow cooker and set them aside on a plate. Whisk the cornstarch and water mixture into the cooking liquid. Return the pork chops to the slow cooker and cook on high until the sauce is thickened and the pork chops are fork-tender, about 30 – 60 minutes.

Crock Pot Pizza Casserole

Ingredients: ■ 500g (16 oz.) Rigatoni Pasta, cooked & drained ■ 500g (16 oz.) ground beef ■ 1 onion, diced ■ 1 red bell pepper, diced ■ 800g (28 oz.) pizza sauce ■ 100g (3.5 oz.) pepperoni, chopped ■ 4 cups mozzarella cheese Instructions: 1. In a skillet, cook the onion, ground beef, and pepperoni until browned. Drain off any excess fluid. Lastly, mix in the pizza sauce, diced bell pepper & put to the side. 2. Next, in a slow cooker, add a little bit of meat sauce to the bottom and then layer in the following order. Pasta, pizza sauce, cheese & then repeat until you run out of the meat sauce. Finish off with some mozzarella on top. 3. Cook on low for 6 hours. Cooking Tips: ■ You’re able to skip the browning of the ground beef but it will add quite a bit more greasy fluid to the dish. I always recommend browning the ground beef before adding it to the slow cooker but it isn’t compulsory. ■ If you love your vegetables then don’t hesitate to add a few more into this dish. Carrot and mushrooms are two great vegetables that work great in a pizza casserole. ■ You’re able to swap the ground beef for some sliced Italian sausages or something similar.

Crock Pot Chicken and Gravy Ingredients 2 packets dry chicken gravy mix 1 10.5 oz can cream of chicken soup 2 cups water 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts garlic powder, salt & black pepper to taste 1/2 cup sour cream rice, mashed potatoes or noodles for serving Instructions Season chicken breasts (both sides) with garlic powder, black pepper and just a tad bit of salt. In your slow cooker, whisk together the gravy packets, cream of chicken soup, and water until smooth. Add the seasoned chicken breasts. Be sure to get them covered in gravy. Cover and cook on low for about 6-8 hours. Once cooked, break chicken up into chunks using a fork. Stir in sour cream (if using). Recipe Notes The chicken gravy and cream of chicken soup already have salt in them so don’t go overboard on seasoning with salt (about a teaspoon should work). Sour cream adds a great creaminess to this so I definitely recommend adding it in! Serve over rice, mashed potatoes or noodles.
