Healthy crock pot recipes?

Layla

I just got a crock pot. I don't know how to cook (I am learning) because I never learned how growing up. Not something I am proud of. Anyway I just got a crock pot as a gift and I would like to start using it so we can stop eating out and save some money. Can anyone share some easy, HEALTHY, crock pot recipes. I don't really want to use a lot of canned soups. A lot of meat and veggies is what I need.

Thanks!

Burgers made with 93% lean ground beef.
Anything made with lean ground beef offers lower fat and great flavors. Crunchy tacos are good.

Need easy, healthy lunch ideas!?

cryinginsi

So, I used to have only my little sister to look after and we usually ate Ramen Noodles, but now I have to feed myself, my little sister, my 2 step-brothers, and my step-dad's mom. My 2 step-brothers and my step-dad's mom are very picky eaters. My step-brothers don't eat onions or spicy things or vegetables if they can help it. My step-dad's mom, however, doesn't eat, wait for it, GREEN VEGETABLES! I have no clue how to cook like this! I usually cook very healthy for other people, but now it seems like I have to hide all of the ingredients.
So, anyway, I need easy, healthy, and altogether, good lunch food recipes.
Thank You,
Ashley

Answer
Some ideas:

Chicken tenders/fingers
Leftovers, whatever's leftover from dinner the night before make into sandwiches the next day. Flank steak with lettuce, salt and pepper makes a great lunch, roast beef, fried chicken, pizza, etc, ziti, lasagna warmed up, these all make great lunches. Whatever you've had the night before, warm up the next day for lunch!

Tuna fish sandwiches or tuna salad
Egg salad sandwiches or just egg salad
Omelets

Salad, but add some chicken, tomatos, olives, carrots, hard boiled eggs, cucumbers, fennel, onions, etc.

Wraps, either with cold cuts or with chicken and add lettuce and tomatos. Put on a tortilla and cut in half.

Spaghetti or pasta

cold cut sandwiches

Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
Bagel with cream cheese or peanut butter

Grilled cheese sandwiches
Hamburgers and hot dogs
Soups
Mac and cheese
Cheese and crackers with fruit

Fruit salad with lemon juice sprinkled on top so it doesn't turn brown

Fruit slices with peanut butter
Cut up carrots, celery, and veggies with dip
pancakes or waffles, as long as they like it!
Scrambled Eggs

Chicken cutlet or grilled chicken sandwich with lettuce and tomato.

I hope some of these ideas help!

Answer
Whole Frozen Turkey (10 pounds)

Buying a frozen turkey and making it in less than 2 1/2 hours is so easy and is an unexpected treat for the whole family.
Unwrap the frozen turkey and rinse in cold water. While still wet, season the outside as desired and place on liner pan or 1" rack breast side down. Nu-Wave on HI for 60 minutes. (At this point, the gizzards inside should be defrosted and you can remove for later use. Season or fill cavity with vegetables at this point). Turn turkey breast side up Nu-Wave on HI for another 75-90 minutes or until thermometer reads 165°F. If the skin is becoming too brown, cover with tin foil just as you would a conventional oven.
Let the bird sit as usual and use drippings from pan to make delicious gravy.
(If you want to make up to a 15 pound bird, see our extender ring.)
See Cooking Chart for more times and temperatures





FROZEN ROAST BEEF (4 pounds)

Buying a roast beef (or 2) on sale and freezing it for later saves time and money. Just take it out and, and under 2 hours, you can have a delightful surprise for the family.

Best way to ease away from bad foods?

healthy roast beef sandwich recipes image

TJ

I need to drop like 15 pounds. I'm not a pig but I like what I like which is mostly bad stuff. The good news is I can tolerate healthy things like fruit, yogurt, cereals with high fiber, etc., but I work hard and feel like I need a REAL breakfast, a REAL lunch, etc., not just fruits n veggies or a bland chicken breast. Any real eaters out there that made the transition to healthier choices without going crazy, and stuck with it? Also, any tips or recipes that would be satisfying to a serious foodie?

Answer
If you stick with whole foods instead of junk, you should do fine and feel satisfied. By junk i mean any fast food or processed foods, cook your own food as much as possible. Stick to whole grains whenever possible (wheat bread and pasta instead of white, etc). And most importantly, just keep it balanced.
You don't have to have "a bland chicken breast," have a chicken breast in a tomato sauce with wheat pasta and parmesan cheese. Have a roast beef sandwich on wheat with veggies like tomato and lettuce. It's not hard to eat healthy, just cut out most of the processed foods out there, be sensible about portions, and make sure to sneak in a lot of fruit and veggies. Which isn't hard. Want some ice cream? Throw some berries on there. Put fresh fruit on your cereal. Have veggie soup with your lunch.
I'm speaking from experience because a couple years ago i lost 40 lbs over the summer simply by switching to whole grains and eliminating processed foods. Trust me, i'm a serious foodie.

Can you give me a healthy kid-friendly easy recipe?

Mrs. Wiles

Hi,
My hubby is going to Iraq soon. So its just going to be me and my 2 daughters (ages 5 and 2) for awhile. What i am looking for is some easy healthy kid friendly recipes. I am also hoping that these recipes have "normal" ingredients, LoL. Like i have NO idea what a leek is, i don't know if that is even know if thats spelled right.
Anyways... healthy....kid friendly. I would like to lose some weight while he is gone and not have to make a separate meal for my kids and also add some recipes to my very small collection that are healthy. Please don't refer me to any recipe sights because I've looked at a billion of them and have found very little that helps me. I would like mother tested and approved Ideas. Thanks in advance :)

Answer
Replace all your ground beef with ground turkey to save 50% in calories.
Brown it in big batches, then freeze in 1# baggies. Thaw it out to make tacos (add a pkg of taco seasoning & simmer til dried, put on hard shells or tortillas w/lettuce, cheese, tomatoes.
Thaw & add to a jar of spaghetti sauce & serve over noodles.
Thaw and add a can of manwich, simmer, serve on buns.

Get a crockpot & put a beef or pork roast in it, cook all day with onions, carrots & potatoes. Use the leftovers for sandwiches, stew or soup the next day.

Breakfast-for-dinner is a hit for kids: make french toast or pancakes, or scrambled eggs for dinner. Or "toad-in-a-hole"--
cut a circle in a bread slice with a cup. Fry on one side til golden, flip, and break an egg into the hole. Fry til done.
(don't throw the circles away--fry them too)

To serve, place 1 leaf of lettuce on a slice of bread. Top with 1/4 of tuna mixture, spread to edges and top with another slice of bread. Serve immediately.

Philly Steak Sandwich

12 ounces lean roast beef, shaved thin
4 whole wheat buns
½ cup Cheddar cheese, shredded

What are some cheap and healthy cuts of beef and pork? Please also suggest yummy, easy recipes for them.?

healthy roast beef sandwich recipes image

Gems

Hi! I am seeking lean, economic cuts of beef and pork I can either broil, bake or sautée for dinner and tasty, relatively easy, pocket-book friendly recipes for them. I actually like marinating, I just don't want to spend hours waiting for something to be cooked. My husband is trying to lose some weight, so healthy recipes are required. Thanks in advance.

Answer
There are a few cuts of beef that I prefer to buy, even when they aren't on sale (or cheap):

Chuck roast. Brown each side well in a tiny bit of oil in a 5qt pot, then just barely cover with water, add 1/2 onion (you can leave it whole), and a clove of garlic, peeled. Pour in a TBSP of salt, and a little black pepper, cover, and simmer over low heat for about 2 hours, turning once halfway through cooking. (If you like pot roast, during the last half hour of cooking, you can add some cleaned carrots and potatoes and maybe a chopped tomato or fresh green beans to the pot.)Leave covered, and let cool completely. Shred the meat to use in burritos.

Brisket....brown well on both sides, then put in a large baking pan, pour in hot water or beef stock halfway up the side of the meat, add onion and garlic and salt and pepper, then bake in the oven for 3 hours, covered tightly, turning once after 1.5 hours. Slice and eat. I use the leftover sliced meat for sandwiches with barbecue sauce, au jus, or with typical hoagie condiments. The meat has great flavor, and it'll be eaten up fast...even if you make a lot.

We also buy pork loin (NOT tenderloin) when it goes on sale. You can get a huge 10 pound loin for less than $2 per pound. I cut it into 3# roasts, then freeze them.

The beef brisket is the same way. We just bought 15 pounds of brisket at $1.35 per pound. We cut it into 5# slabs.

Chuck roast is often under $2 per pound, but is usually on sale for about $2.50/lb. Arm roast can be cooked the same way and shredded. The shreds are finer, but tougher.

We love to make ham taquitos, so we also buy whole smoked hams when they go on sale for under $1.50 per pound.

I know you didn't mention lamb, but we also buy entire legs of lamb in the spring when they are discounted, at under $5.50 per pound. I have never seen it cheaper than that. (I make lamb curry and freeze it...it is my favorite dish, and lamb is a luxury at our house....we also grind part of it to make homemade gyro meat.

Of course, buy ground beef whenever it is on sale. We are able to get 93% lean for under $1.50 per pound on a regular basis. You can make meatloaf, burgers, salisbury steaks, spaghetti sauce.

Does anyone have any good recipes for NuWave Oven?

Q. I have lost my recipe book that it came with and would like some wonderful recipes. Thanks for your help.

A. Whole Frozen Turkey (10 pounds)

Buying a frozen turkey and making it in less than 2 1/2 hours is so easy and is an unexpected treat for the whole family.
Unwrap the frozen turkey and rinse in cold water. While still wet, season the outside as desired and place on liner pan or 1" rack breast side down. Nu-Wave on HI for 60 minutes. (At this point, the gizzards inside should be defrosted and you can remove for later use. Season or fill cavity with vegetables at this point). Turn turkey breast side up Nu-Wave on HI for another 75-90 minutes or until thermometer reads 165°F. If the skin is becoming too brown, cover with tin foil just as you would a conventional oven.
Let the bird sit as usual and use drippings from pan to make delicious gravy.
(If you want to make up to a 15 pound bird, see our extender ring.)

(If you like pot roast, during the last half hour of cooking, you can add some cleaned carrots and potatoes and maybe a chopped tomato or fresh green beans to the pot.)Leave covered, and let cool completely. Shred the meat to use in burritos.

Brisket....brown well on both sides, then put in a large baking pan, pour in hot water or beef stock halfway up the side of the meat, add onion and garlic and salt and pepper, then bake in the oven for 3 hours, covered tightly, turning once after 1.5 hours. Slice and eat. I use the leftover sliced meat for sandwiches with barbecue sauce, au jus, or with typical hoagie condiments. The meat has great flavor, and it'll be eaten up fast...even if you make a lot.

We also buy pork loin (NOT tenderloin) when it goes on sale. You can get a huge 10 pound loin for less than $2 per pound. I cut it into 3# roasts, then freeze them.

The beef brisket is the same way. We just bought 15 pounds of brisket at $1.35 per pound. We cut it into 5# slabs.

Chuck roast is often under $2 per pound, but is usually on sale for about $2.50/lb. Arm roast can be cooked the same way and shredded. The shreds are finer, but tougher.

We love to make ham taquitos, so we also buy whole smoked hams when they go on sale for under $1.50 per pound.

I know you didn't mention lamb, but we also buy entire legs of lamb in the spring when they are discounted, at under $5.50 per pound. I have never seen it cheaper than that. (I make lamb curry and freeze it...it is my favorite dish, and lamb is a luxury at our house....we also grind part of it to make homemade gyro meat.

Of course, buy ground beef whenever it is on sale. We are able to get 93% lean for under $1.50 per pound on a regular basis. You can make meatloaf, burgers, salisbury steaks, spaghetti sauce.
