Here is my all time favorite crock pot recipe:

Beef Dip

1 can of beer
1 can of beef consomme
1 pkg Au Jus seasoning
1 pkg Hidden Valley Ranch salad dressing

Mix the above contents in your crock pot add to it one beef roast ( any type will do but I prefer the leaner cuts) . Cook on high all day. Take out the roast and shred it with two forks. Serve on crusty buns with the jus as dip. Mmmmm good.



I have also had pork tenderloin done in the crock pot with BBQ sauce of your choice, onions sliced very thin and minced garlic added to the sauce. Again just shred the meat with two forks and serve on buns.

Health Twist Leaving the peel on the potatoes not only retains nutrients but also helps potatoes keep their shape. Just scrub and cut as directed. Substitution Peppered seasoned salt is one of the newest varieties of seasoned salt available in the supermarket. If you can't find it, use regular seasoned salt and sprinkle the beef with pepper, or you can just use salt and pepper.

We have a few crockpot recipes that we absolutely LOVE. Here is one of them.

Creamy Ranch Chicken
I make this extra soupy, and fill up the rice cooker with rice - the original recipe just called for the soup to go over the chicken but we LOVE this over rice.

2-3 lbs boneless chicken breast or tenderloins
4 10oz cans cream of mushroom soup
2 packets dry ranch dip/dressing mix
16oz cream cheese
Basil, salt and pepper to taste

Put chicken in bottom, pour soup, dressing mix, basil, salt, pepper and cream cheese over top. Cook for 2 hours on high, 4 hours on low. Serve over rice. Half the soup and cream cheese if you only want it over the chicken breasts.

Chicken Cordon Bleu (5.5 Points)

4-6 chicken breasts (pounded out thin) •
4-6 pieces of ham •
4-6 slices of Swiss or mozzarella cheese •
1 can cream of mushroom soup (can use any cream soup) •
1/4 cup milk

Put ham and cheese on chicken. Roll up and secure with a toothpick. Place chicken in the crockpot so it looks like a triangle /_\ Layer the rest on top. Mix soup with the milk; pour over top of chicken. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours or until chicken is no longer pink. Serve over noodles with the sauce it makes. Note: Its the best recipe I've tried so far, very flavorful.
5-6 pts. , depending on the size of the chicken breast. I used a 3 oz chicken breast (3 pts.) 96% fat free ham (.5 pts), 2% moz cheese (1 pt.). Then when you add the cream of mushroom soup (98% ff) and 1/4 c. milk (fat free) and divide by the 6 servings I had in the crockpot, I only came up with about 1 pt. for that (at most). Total = 5.5 pts.
