A pot roast is awesome in a crock pot...and easy! Buy a beef or pork roast, Mckormick pot roast seasoning, potatoes, carrots, and whatever else you like. Put it together the nite before, refrig. and plug it up in the morning. I can't think of anything for breakfast....I will have to try maybe eggs, sausage and cheese?? May be good!!!

Answer 3

you should get the All Receipes.com slow cooker / casserole cookbook. It has a lot of REALLY easy and good reciples. I use my crock pot so much now that I have it. One of my favorites is to roast a whole chicken all day, then shred the cooked chicken and use it in a variety of ways, like on a salad or in a casserole or enchiladas. Easy! Also, a 3 lb. pork shoulder roast - pour a ton of bbq sauce on it and cook all day, shred it and make BBQ sandwiches.

Answer 4

You can take chicken, roast, or pork chops (making sure they are boneless). Add some cream of mushroom soup. It is delicious. You can add minute rice and you have a meal with a veggie side dish. You can also buy crock pot cookbooks that will give you all kinds of recipes.

Both are good for you, each fruit/vegetable has different vitamins. Therefore as more variety, as better. Vegetables have generally less sugar than fruits.
