Chicken 'n Dumplings should be pretty thick.... like a thick stew.

Makes looking for recipes a lot easier.

4 chicken breasts
1/2 package of taco seasoning
12 oz jar of salsa
1 can cream of mushroom

cook all day
pull the chichen apart- like pulled pork

I did this yesterday - I added sliced red peppers and half an onion (sliced). I pulled apart the chicken and fished out the veg with a slotted spoon and used it to make enchiladas, pouring the cooking sauce over and topping with cheese. It was super yummy and much easier than frying off the meat separately

Bumping this to add a French Onion Soup. Have tried many recipes, but this is a nice basic version that tastes great without tweaking. I cheated & used Beef "Better Than Boullion" as stock. Good as is, but adding the dry sherry to the bowl (I used less than recommended) makes it a knockout. Note: Recipe fills a 6 qt. slowcooker and freezes well.

Now if only I could find a fast way of carmelizing onions!

Recently made pulled pork in my slowcooker (crock pot):

3 lb pork shoulder (skin removed) -- can use pretty much any pork roast, with bones, no bones, or even 3 lbs worth of pork chops

1 can of root beer (your favourite kind)

2 tablespoons of chili powder

1 tablespoon each of garlic powder and paprika

1/2 tablespoon each of dried oregano and ground cumin

1 teaspoon of cayenne powder (or more or less or none depending on taste)

Juice of one lime or 2 tablespoons of vinegar (I used apple cider vinegar)

Put all ingredients in slow cooker. If root beer doesn't cover the meat then add a bit more liquid like more root beer or even a bit of water. The meat should be submerged but just under the surface.

Plug it in. Go out. Come home. Pause while you take in the heady aromas of delicious simmering pork. Take off lid and carefully remove pork from the pot. Using a couple of forks, pull apart the pork. If you like, you can pour the liquid from the crock pot into a regular stove top pot and reduce the liquid and make a tasty dipping sauce. You may need to thicken the sauce with corn starch.

Enjoy!

The leftovers are incredible the next day and my preference is stuffed taco shells with warmed pulled pork.
