I would say that it serves about 6-8
2 lbs pork tenderloin or meat of choice, cut into 1” cubes
4 cloves of garlic, chopped
2 boiler onions, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped and seeds removed
2 large tomatoes chopped
8-10 med crimini mushrooms sliced thick
2 Anaheim chile peppers sliced into rings (with as many seeds as you like)
3 tbsp chili powder
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp paprika
2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt
1 can of pinto beans
1 14.5 oz can chopped tomatoes
1/2 bottle Porter style beer
1/2 c of chicken stock
2 tsp corn starch
Toppings
Fresh cilantro
Sour cream or greek style yogurt
Diced red onion
Cheddar cheese
Season pork cubes with some salt and pepper. In an oven safe pan with just a little oil on the bottom, sauté onions and garlic on medium heat until translucent. Add pork and brown on all sides (I had to move some of the onions to the crock pot to make room for the pork to brown.) Move contents of pan and all veggies, spices, beans and canned tomatoes to slow cooker. Deglaze pan with beer and stock and pour into slow cooker.
Cook on high for 1 hour and then low for at least 7 hours. I cooked everything for a total of 10 hours. In the last hour, dissolve corn starch into about 1/4 cup of cold water and add to pot. Stir and let it finish cooking. The sauce will still be relatively thin. You can add more corn starch if you want it much thicker.
Serve with toppings and tortilla chips
This is one of our favorite slow cooke dishes. Perfect for a weekday meal, or a busy gone-all-day weekend meal. Check out The Taste Place for the recipe. Beware... this dish is deceptively spicy, but so so good!
Took the meat and veggies out of the cooker to make gravy from the broth.
Hard to believe, but I'd never made a pot roast before. John found a recipe he liked on AllRecipies.com and it was delicious! Will definitely do again, but with less potatoes and more carrots.
I made Beef Stew for tonight's Rainbow Gathering at The Lodge. It was my first time using the Slow Cooker Darek's Mom got us for Christmas. It didn't turn out delicious, but it was good.
I need to do this recipe again soon - it was lovely to just grab these to go and right now I'm moving too slowly to be a very efficient cook so this would be a great solution.

With just 3 ingredients plus water, this is a very simple recipe to put together, but would be very easy to adapt with whatever options are convenient for you.

Both Leo and I really like this stew. The original recipe calls for veggie broth but I didn’t have any around so I used chicken. I bumped up the spices and chickpeas, added more broth, included kale and cooked the onions much longer than specified. I think you could get pretty creative with this stew, using anything that takes well to slow cooking. Very nice recipe.

You’ll need a big slow cooker for this recipe. Halve it if you have a smaller slow cooker. We got at least 10 servings out of it.
Olive oil
1 large sweet onion, diced
5 large fingerling potatoes cut into bite sized pieces
Salt and pepper to taste
1.5 tbs curry powder
1 tsp of cinnamon
1 tsp of paprika
1 tsp of cayenne pepper
2 tsp brown sugar
2 tbs ginger minced
5 garlic cloves minced
3 cups chicken broth
3 (16-ounce) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets
1.5 bunches of curly kale cut into 1” pieces
1 (28-ounce) can diced tomatoes with their juices
5-ounces baby spinach
1 can of light coconut milk
In a large pot (my slow cooker has a stove safe insert so I cooked everything in that) sauté onions until they begins to turn a little brown. Add potatoes and cook for another minute or two. Add salt and pepper (oh about a tbs of the first and 6 grinds of the latter), spices, sugar, ginger and garlic and cook about 1 minute. Add broth, bell pepper, cauliflower, kale and tomatoes. Bring to a boil.
Put boiling mixture into the crock pot and cook on low for 4 hours or until potatoes are tender. Check seasoning of broth throughout and add more salt, pepper or herbs as desired.
After the stew is done cooking, add coconut milk and spinach and allow spinach to wilt. Serve with fresh ground pepper.

This is a great dish! Recipe found here: coreyrecipes.blogspot.com/2006/10/chicken-taco-filling.html
Raw chicken, salsa, and (homemade) taco seasoning in the crock pot. In two hours, the chicken will be fully cooked, ready to shred and be put into taco shells. Mmmmm

My chili stew. It's not really chili since I added some potato and chicken (and no beef). It's a pot of really good and healthy stuff though.
1lb raw pinto beans (no canned stuff)
Just enough filtered water to cover the beans
2 boneless/skinless chicken breasts (grilled and chopped up)
1 large russet potato
1 cup organic vegetable broth
2 habenero peppers
1 jalapeno pepper
1 orange pepper
1/2 large onion
3 garlic cloves
4 small vine ripened tomatoes (blanched, no skin)
2 tbsp tomato paste
2 tsp "San Antonio chile blend" (from Central Market)
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp ground cumin seeds
1/2 tsp table salt
1/2 tsp pepper
3 tbsp all-purpose flour & equal filtered water for rue (for thickening)
..Then 8 to 10 hours in the slow-cooker and it's some yummy grub.
This turned out pretty good - could have used a little salt to cut the sweetness of the salsa I used, but other than that delicious.
Elena and her friend Candice came to visit for two days before they go on a cruise in the Caribbean. For dinner I made a pork roast in the slow-cooker that came out well with the thermometer. And since Candice is a vegetarian, I had a good reason to use my steam cooker to steam lots of good vegetables.
