Street Chicken Tacos

I got this recipe from my friend Crystal.  The hubby loves it but it's a little on the spicy side, so when we have it I usually do quesadillas for the kiddos.

1 can green chili sauce
1 can El Pato mexican tomato sauce
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
1/2 cup diced onion
3/4 cup brown sugar
3 chicken breasts diced & left raw

Mix everything together and put in crockpot on low for 4-5 hours.
Scoop chicken into taco and pour sauce over top.  You can add your favorite beans, cheese, lettuce, sour cream, guacamole, etc.  We do more of a burrito and put the chicken, beans, lettuce, cheese, etc. inside the roll it up and pour the sauce over the top.

The Ultimate Beef Stroganoff


I got this recipe from 24hourmenu , it was really good, and really easy. My kids loved it!

Put in Crockpot:

2-3 pounds stew meat
1 tsp. salt
dash of pepper
1 onion, sliced

Mix in a bowl & pour over meat:
1/4 tsp Garlic salt
1 tbs. Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 cups beef broth or stock (from cubes or granules)
1 Tbs Ketchup

Cook in crockpot on low for 7-8 hours, or high for 4-5 hours. When cooked make a simple roux by whisking 1/3 c. flour with enough apple juice (about 5-6 Tbs.) to make a thick but still pourable flour mixture. Whisk the roux into the crockpot & add 4 ounces sliced mushrooms. Cook on high for 15-30 minutes. Then stir in 1/2 cup sour cream. Serve over pasta, rice, or baked potatoes.

Taco Soup

I was supposed to make "Taco Soup" for a Womens church activity and I couldn't find my recipe anywhere. So, I looked online, and found another family members version of it. None of them looked like the one I remembered or recognized as Taco Soup. So, I went through my cupboards and just kind of made up my own recipe! It turned out pretty well, I think. I liked it anyway... so here is what I did.

1 can Great Northern beans, drained and rinsed
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 can tomatoes and green chilies
1 can condensed tomato soup
4 cans water (from soup can)
1/3 cup taco seasoning or 2 packets
2 cups salsa
1 pound ground hamburger
Shredded cheese, sour cream, taco chips (optional)

In frying pan, brown hamburger. Sprinkle about half of the taco seasoning or one packet onto the hamburger and stir. Remove from heat when hamburger is coated in seasoning. Pour soup into crock pot, along with water. Add beans, tomatoes and chilies, salsa, meat and remaining taco seasoning. Stir together. Cook on low 5 to 6 hours or high 3 to 4, stirring occasionally. Serve with taco chips, sour cream and shredded cheese.

Pot Roast

1 Medium to Large Pot or Rump Roast (about 5 to 7 pounds), frozen
2 packets Lipton Onion Soup mix
5-10 carrots, peeled
5-6 large potatoes, peeled
1 medium onion, peeled
1/2 cup water

In a large crock pot, sprinkle one packet of Lipton Onion Soup mix.  Add frozen roast.  Pour water over the top of the roast.  Sprinkle the remaining packet of Lipton Onion Soup mix over the top of the roast.  Put the lid on the crock pot and set to "High."  You let it cook approximately one hour per pound of meat.  It is alright to cook it longer if you want a more tender meat.  About an hour and a half before the meat is done, cut the carrots, potatoes, and onion into 1 inch cubes or pieces.  Then sprinkle them evenly around the sides of the pot roast.  The pot roast is done when the vegetables are soft enough to run a fork through.

My family likes to be served this over white minute rice, and use the drippings for gravy.

***This can also be made in a conventional oven, in a roast pan, baked at 375 degrees.

Swiss Steak

1 1/2 pounds round steak, 3/4 in. thick
2 Tbs. flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 medium onion, sliced
1 carrot, chopped
1 sm. stalk celery, chopped
1 15 oz. can tomato sauce

Cut round steak into serving pieces. Season flour with salt and pepper. Dredge meat in seasoned flour. Put onions in bottom of Crockpot; add meat. Top with carrots and celery and cover with tomato sauce. Cover; cook on low 8 to 10 hours. (High: 3 to 5 hours.)
6 servings

This is really good served over rice :)
