Does anyone have health crockpot recipes that are kid friendly? I go to school full time and work almost full time so there is not a lot of time to fix meals.
thank you

okay I have 2 things now I'm trying in crock pot. Mind you these will never make any great recipe cookbook. But 2 different friends use this.

#1 take chicken breasts(boneless) and put at bottom of crock pot (no water) then open a fajita mix package. sprinkle on top of chicken. after few hours chicken done, moist and tasty ready for fajitas or just plain. Very yummy.

#2 1 cup water (use spices if you like). 5 raw potatoes. 5 hours or so they are done and ready for toppings.

Most kids like any white meat I have found. I get a turkey breast salt and pepper it and then add apple juice to the crock pot and cook it all day. It then falls off the bones and I use the juice for the gravy which makes a sweet gravy that my kids love

Shell, are you able to get a crock pot cookbook? :)

There are so many soups and stews that our kiddos loved when they were growing up
I found in cookbooks. Complete meals is what I looked for, since then if I made biscuits
or bread to go with filled them up and were nutritionally complete, too.

For instance, I'd brown beef cubes (season with S&P, onion powder, garlic powder, celery powder), add potatoes, onions, carrots (and whatever other veg you like)
pour in a box of good organic beef stock, thicken toward the end with potato flakes, and voilá! Dinner! haha
(I do mine about 7 hrs. on low, but crockpots have different wattages, so YMMV.)
With none of the yucky stuff you get in those packets...

Good luck to you. Working moms...I take my hat off to you! :)
