One bite? So what did he have for dinner? :lol:

He had a couple spoonfuls of peanut butter and a few crackers and cheese.

I didn't have time or energy to make his dinner. I know how weird that must sound, after my cooking marathon session. :biggrin:
 
All that stuff sounds terrific. I'll even take the peanut butter on crackers right now. But doc says no. :ohwell:

Jello, apple juice and nasty cream of chicken soup was today's menu. Better than Mon and Tue, which was nada.

This is probably one of my favorite crockpot recipes. It's even better the next day. Has a little "kick" to it, but not super spicy. It's good as a sandwich or as a non-sandwich. Hope you like it

1 jar (approximately 11 oz.) pepperoncinis (sliced)
1 boneless beef chuck roast (3-4 lbs.)
1/4 cup water
1 3/4 tsp. dried basil
1 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
1 1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 large onion, quartered and sliced
Sandwich rolls
Instructions

Drain the pepperoncinis and reserve the liquid.

Cut the roast into large 2-inch chunks. Place 1/3 of the meat into the bottom of a slow cooker. Add the water.

In a small bowl, combine the basil, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle half of the spice mixture over the beef.

Layer half of the remaining beef, then the onion, pepperoncinis, and pepperoncini liquid. Top with the remaining meat and the rest of the spice mixture.

Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours, or until the meat is tender and shreds easily with a fork.

Between yesterday and today, I have been in a cooking/preparation frenzy. I have made meals for at least 30 nights' worth of dinners and they are now in the freezer.

Here is my list thus far:

Spaghetti sauce
Pepper Steak
Sweet and Sour Meatballs
Teriyaki Pork Chops
BBQ - Cranberry Chicken
Hiney Bourbon Chicken
Southwestern Chicken Chili
Sausage and Peppers
Apple - BBQ Pork Tenderloin
Pineapple Chicken Burritos
Black Bean and Corn Salsa Chicken
Chili
Chicken Broccoli Alfredo
Chicken Teriyaki
Honey Garlic Chicken
Beef Stew

Just take a ZipLoc bag out of the freezer and pop it in the CrockPot, and dinner will be ready when I get home from work. All that is needed is some pasta/noodles/mashed potatoes as a side Daisha's well as a salad of some sort.

Hopefully this will alleviate my normal dinner rush madness. :jameo:


Anybody else have any interesting freezer/CrockPot dinner ideas? Bring 'em on! :biggrin:

I make a crock pot pizza that is awesome!

Spread a this layer of olive oil on the bottom of the crock pot. I like to use the sub dressing I get from Foodlion. Then a layer of sauce. Mix up some bisquick, spread that is a THIN layer over the sauce. (If you don't make it REALLY thin, you end up with a really thick crust.) Then another layer of sauce, and whatever toppings you want & cheese. (Make sure things like canned mushrooms are REALLY well drained)

Cook on high about 2 hours. Yummy! :drool:
