Beef Stroganoff

Have you guys heard about Crock Pot Sisters on Facebook? I havent tried any of their recipes yet but they seem to have taken off on Facebook and people are raving about them. So Im trying this for Tuesday night. Our Tuesdays nights are typically busy so I like to use my crock pot because I dont have time to cook that night. Typically when I make Beef Stroganoff I have just used ground beef and I cook on the stove...so this will be a first using this recipe in the crock pot!

1 pound cubed beef stew meat
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed golden mushroom soup
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup water
4 ounces cream cheese


In a slow cooker, combine the meat, soup, onion, Worcestershire sauce and water.
Cook on Low setting for 8 hours, or on High setting for about 5 hours. Stir in cream cheese just before serving.
Serve with egg noodles!

Tangy Slow Cooker Pork Roast

This was a hit! I cooked it for Dustin & Sarah and they moved loved it. I sent home the rest for Matt and he ate it up! The only thing I did different was put my onions in and the added potatoes around the roast. Next time I will add carrots to it. It turned out great! I shredded the whole roast at the end also. If you have any leftovers you can eat it as is or add the meat to hoagie buns. Oh and I didnt have boneless pork roast and that worked just fine.

INGREDIENTS
1 large onion, sliced
2 1/2 pounds boneless pork loin roast
1 cup hot water
1/4 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 dash hot pepper sauce, or to taste

DIRECTIONS
Arrange onion slices evenly over the bottom of the slow cooker, and then place the roast on top of the onion. In a bowl, mix together water, sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, ketchup, black pepper, salt, garlic powder, and hot sauce; pour over roast.
Cover, and cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours, or on High for 3 to 4 hours.

Chicken Cacciatore (Crockpot)

Dustin makes a great Chicken Cacciatore but its a lot of work and by the time he gets home and its ready its already 630 or so. So I thought we could try this crockpot recipe out! Thank you again Barb

1 lb chicken, cut into bite size pieces
1 can diced tomatoes
1 cup jarred spaghetti sauce
1 green pepper cut into slices (and then In half so they’re a little smaller)
½ small onion, chopped up
Basil, oregano and black pepper to taste (I didn’t measure!)
2 tablespoons minced garlic
(you can also add mushrooms, we don't like them so I leave them out)

Put it all in the crockpot, stir and cook all day! Serve over warm pasta.

Salsa Chicken

Thank you Barb for this recipe! This was delicious! We didn't have that much time to eat so instead of putting it over rice or noodles we wrapped up the mixture in tortilla shells. It was amazing and we were able to eat them on the run!

1 lb boneless skinless chicken, cut into bite size pieces (you could also do whole breasts and shred them, but I think the chunks are just easier)
1 1/2 cups salsa
1/2 packet taco seasoning
1 can corn, drain
1 green pepper, cut into pieces (optional)

Dump it all in the crockpot and cook on low all day. I serve it over rice, but you can also serve it in tortillas or over pasta. Some people also add black beans or something similar.

Cheesy Corn

We had a reunion this past Sunday & one of our family members brought this. It was delicious but Dustin thinks its the best thing EVER so we had to get the recipe.

11oz Cream Cheese
1 Stick Butter
2 Tbs. milk
2 Tbs. water
2.5 Tbs. sugar
