Best recipe for a slow cooker!?

Question

What do you cook in your slow cooker?

Answer 1

Aus Ju Sandwiches!

Get a nice roast and add one can of beef broth, one beer, preferably a red lager, a bay leaf, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook on low for 8 hrs and srves with toasty french bread! Oh, we take the leftover a broth and put it in bowls so we can dip are sandwiches in it. Yumm!

Answer 2

I cook a ton of stuff in the slow cooker..in fact, I have a roast in right now. My family's favorite recipe is for Tortellini soup.

Tortellini soup

3 can low sodium chicken broth
1 can crushed tomatoes
1 small zucchini cut into chunks
3-4 carrots cut into chunks
1 small can corn, drained
1 small red onion, chopped
1 T dry Italian dressing mix
1/2 t. crushed red peppers
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 T Italian herbs (oregano, basil, etc)
1 package refrigerate tortellini

Place all ingredients, except tortellini, in slow cooker. Cook on low for 7 hours or high for 4 hours. Add tortellini, turn up to high and cook half hour to hour more.

I serve this with homemade bread. My husband, who does not like soup as a meal, loves this!

Answer 3

You can cook almost anything in a slow cooker. Just this past weekend I made Italian Wedding Soup, and Chicken Cacciatore. This weekend, I'm making 2 big pots of sauce to freeze.

I've made countless soups, stews, chilis, even BBQ Pulled Pork.

I don't have any exact recipes. Just throw everything - excluding pasta - into the pot, and turn it on. Stir it every once in a while, and let it cook. I've even thrown in frozen stuff, put the lid on, turned it on low, and 10 hours later, dinner's done!

Answer 4

I love cooking chili in the slow cooker! My recipe tends to change a little each time, based on what I have in-house. It usually turns out to include beans (red/kidney), tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, meat of choice, and some spices and/or a packet of chili seasoning (usually mild for my personal tastes).
