Tried a few recipes a long time ago in the crockpot, but now I'm encouraged to cook a lot more with it going forward! These are a perfect start thanks SP! Report

I love the crock pot cooking too. Looking for new recipes all the time. The tortilla soup looks very good. Report

I use the slow cooker mostly in summer months, but will try it now. I like my oven on in winter for the smells throughout the house and the added warmth. Report
COMFANFAN
Wow! I've bookmarked this page. Gotta try most of them, but especially the rosemary one. My husband uses rosemary whenever he cooks chicken, so I know he'll love it. Report
MAROO358
so many of them sound good, can't wait to try them with the weather cooling off now. Report
MIAJOEB
I also agree that the recipe should not only include how many servings but how many ounces for the serving. I really need to know. Report

I can't wait to try the Chicken and Hominy Chili.....Grits is Groceries! Report
ADLINS
I plan on trying some of these, but I'm always befuddled by what the serving size is. I mean it says 5 servings on the one I want to try, but doesn't say what a serving size is, i.e. a 1/2 cup, 1 cup, what? Report
BSWEET101
I think we'll be trying: Southwest, Pineapple Teriyaki, Stew, Crock Pot Dinner, Tortilla Soup, and Salsa. Report

I made Slow Cooker Marinara Chicken and Vegetables (Chef Meg's Makeover) when my kids came over a few weeks ago and they LOVED it! Definitely one I'm keeping in the regular recipe cycle! Report

LORIDREX
I am making the Slow Cooker Chicken Pineapple Teriyaki as I type! I'm at work, and it's at home, cooking nicely in my slow cooker! Woo Hoo! Thank you! Lori Report
SOOKIE
I LOVE the crockpot/slow-cooker. Its a lifesaver! I plan to try most of these - one a week (that's one less meal I have to worry about planning).

One thing I've learned is not to cook for the entire quoted cook time. I've found the meat would be dry. I cut the time by 30-60 minutes, turn it off, but don't remove the lid. Report
SUNNY332
I am definitely going to try the Crock Pot Chicken Tortillia Soup this weekend. Report
KRITTERKEEPERS
I have cooked the Southwest Chicken before and it was a big hit. I look forward to trying the Apricot Chicken! Report
JIBBIE49
I don't like Apricot. I'd have to be starving to eat them. LOL Report
JOYMG56
I think I'll try the chicken pineapple terryaki. My chicken breasts have been getting pretty boring lately ... and 'tis crock pot season! Report
KID-AT-HEART
I'm psyched to try the chicken stew & the apricot chicken! I've tried the salsa chicken - a quick favorite! Report
MISSY455
I added the Southwest Chicken and Salsa Chicken to meals this next week, and the Rosemary and Olive Oil Chicken to my recipe keeper to try later. Report
SCHENPOSSIBLE
These sound great but I haven't had success with chicken in the crock pot. It taste too gamey. Report
SUMMERSMILES1
I like pineapple with just about everything. Cooking in a crockpot with pineapple and chicken will save time in my house. Thanks for the recipe. Report
SISTERDOE
I am going to try the Pineapple Teriyaki recipe. It's been years since I cooked like that.. about 25, in fact! Report
MOMS100

FINDING_LOUISA
yay slow cooker recipies! I got a slow cooker as a gift when i got married last year and still haven't used it cause I've never used one before Report
WARMSPRINGDAY
I think I'd like to try the slow Cooker Salsa chicken. My favorite slow cooker recipe for chicken is a chicken rice bake that cooks raw rice with raw chicken and mushroom soup - dry onion soup mix over top. It's my husband's favorite. It can be made in the slow cooker, in the oven, or on top of the stove. Report
ZINNER44
They all sound great. I saved all but 2 to my cookbook "Slow Cooking". Two were too high in carbs for me. With winter coming on soon, I will be making these recipes. Report
JXNCHICORY
I don't have a slow cooker because I think they waste too much electricity. I cook everything in the microwave, and have for MANY years! Report
IMNAOMI
they all sound yummy and i saved 3 that i really want to try: chicken pineapple terryaki, rosemary & olive, and chicken tortilla soup. Report
JESS_BLUEY
these sound amazing! Report
BECKYSUEH
I saved three: Salsa Chicken, Marinara Chick and Vegs, Chicken Pineapple Teriyaki. I'm looking for better choices for my dinner meal that will fit in to my own healthy eating plans but still satisfy my hubby. I also forget about being able to start a meal before I leave for work and have it done when I get home. Can't wait!! Report
MOM2ACAT
I added a few of them to my "Recipes I want to try" cook book.
Already had planned on making beef stew in my crock pot this week, but next week I am going to make the Slow Cooker Chicken Stew. Report
BABY_GIRL69
I have a slow cooker that has been in the box for over 2years. I think I might try that rosemary & olive chicken one or the sirlion chili. I had this once when a co-worker made it for us. It was slow cooked to perfection! YUMMY! Report
