Help, I need a couple of ideas for crockpot meals.

My schedule is nuts, I would be a happy boy if I could come up with things I could throw into the crockpot around 10-10:30 at night before bed, and have them done and ready to go in the fridge around 3-3:30 am when I get up.
 
Any meat would work, or it could be vegetarian or even vegan.

Wracking my brain, all I can come up with is same old - beef stew, pot roast, chicken and rice, etc.

2. 40 Clove Chicken

It's a favorite in our house and really easy to make. We have played around with the recipe a bit but the basic recipe is here...

http://www.food.com/recipe/slow-cooker-20-to-40-clove-garlic-chicken-499698

The garlic finds its way all through the meat and is about as tender as you can get. Plus we spread the cooked cloves on bread like butter. As you can guess you have to like garlic.

3. This is really quite good chili-and easy, too!

http://www.food.com/recipe/debbies-crock-pot-chili-45069

I double the amount of spice to put in, but that's just me.

This also makes a GREAT dip when you add cheddar and sour cream.

In fact-I have some in my fridge as I speak.

5. Toco soup

Hmmm? How does that go?

1 lb ground beef browned
1 med onion
2 soup can sized cans diced tomatoes with chili flavor
1 package of ranch salad dressing mix
1 jalapeno pepper
Can of black beans

Cook all day. Top with grated chedder and throw on some tortilla chips.

Pretty easy. I tried putting in a large can of tomatos once and it came out tasting more like regular chili. Not as good.

6. Pace Picante Sauce is your friend

I cook boneless breast, or even ground lean turkey in about a cup of the sauce. At the end I dump in a bag of shredded cheese. You can also use browned ground beef or boneless country pork ribs with a can of rotel. Makes a great taco or soft burrito filling

8. A friend I used to work with told me that her favorite crock pot recipe had only two ingredients.

A round steak and a jar of salsa. Put those in the crock pot and when you get home from work, shred the meat and use it to make tacos. Normally when I make tacos I use a big pork roast. But my kids loved the beef and salsa crock pot tacos, too.

9. Roast beef or Swiss steak

Mix a can of cream of mushroom or cream of celery soup with a packet of onion soup mix. Spoon over roast or round steak (cut in serving size pieces), cook on low all day, makes a great gravy. Serve over rice or noodles

12. three ingredient short ribs

Beef short ribs (or pot roast)

sprinkle with Lawry's season salt

cover with sauerkraut and its juice

You could brown the meat, but don't need to.

You could add some caraway seeds if so inclined.

Serve with buttered noodles or potato mash.

Wish I had some now!

I've done this a few times but I probably used 10-12 garlic cloves not 40.  It's really tasty and smells fantastic.

Shouldn't DUmmies keep their electric bills paid first before asking for crockpot recipes?

Crock baked beans.
Goes well with a seven pound chunk of steer that's thrown on the grill.

It's a trick.

The cooking and baking primitives are trying to prove to franksolich that they are not pretentious twits, who only cook with ingredients not available to the proletariat.

Don't be fooled.

And the Dennis the Menace to Society DUmmy is still trying to find himself a woman, or a man, or a manatee, to mate with.

Yeah.

But one has to get up pretty early in the morning, to fool franksolich.....or anybody else here.

I do notice however that since the cbayer primitive's been absent from the cooking and baking forum more and more, the use of foreign words to impress has lessened.

I hope the cbayer primitive's eccentric English husband isn't leaning on her to quit Skins's island, like the hippywife primitive's hippyhubby Wild Bill did her.  I thought primitive women were supposed to be liberated, free from the oppression of their male chauvanist pig husbands.

Cooking the food all night and when it's done, not eating at least some of it but instead putting it all back in the refrigerator to cool back down sounds crazy to me.  Unless you like to watch the electric meter spin round and round.

I don't get it either.

Ostensibly the Dennis the Menace primitive's a paralegal, which sounds to me it's an 8-5 M-F sort of job.

All he'd have to do is get it started before going to work, and presto! when he comes home, it's done.

That makes too much sense. Dennis the Menace to Society will have none of that.

If it is a removeable crock like mine, they could prepare it the nite before, cool in fridge then put in the pot part, and let it cook thru the day!! It will be all set to eat when they get home.  There are thousands of crockpot recipes on the innerwebz, not too mention mags at the checkouts!! What is the matter with these idiots.


Not to trainwreck, but can't wait till Fall, when Big Dog's chili goes active!! :yahoo: :yahoo:

He needs to find a para something, or he'll never get that manatee.  :fuelfire:

I thought he said "para professional" - personally I'm thinking he's a cleaner in a lawyer's office and stretching the term 'para'...where getting up early would make sense.

Good question. Part of everyone's phone bill goes towards giving away free obozophones. Most of the electric bills I have ever had to pay have a deduction for paying deadbeat electricity user's bills. So maybe the primitives are using other people's electricity, using soup kitchen food, and calling on their free obozophones to get instructions on the crockpot recipes. A nice lib trifecta that would be.

Tell them they are using "coal-powered crockpots" and maybe they will all starve to save Gaia and advert glowbull warming.   :lmao:
