"I began making these about 22 years ago when a friend in nursing school with me used to feed me regularly and everyone loved her stuffed peppers. Prior to that the taste of a cooked green pepper made me RUN! I have, over the years, adapted her recipe into something entirely different though very loveable! You can use red peppers as well though my favorite..."

Ingredients: extra lean ground beef, fresh black pepper...

"This recipe is from Stephanie of "A Year of Slow Cookin" fame. She used her crockpot everyday in 2008, eventually published a couple of cookbooks. This was a very delicious dessert. I made it in my 3 qt slow cooker. See Notes in recipe for comments. Cooking time does not include chilling."

Ingredients: cocoa powder, eggs, sugar...

"Originally an Alton Brown recipe, I have tweaked it a bit. Prep time includes 3 hours for the brine, and cook time includes 4 hours in the crock pot. The addition of searing makes this more fussy than your typical crock pot recipe, but that's what makes it our absolute favorite pork dish. It almost tastes like wild boar!"

Ingredients: fresh coarse ground black pepper, dried thyme...

"I adapted this recipe from one I found on the A Year of Slow Cooking blog. It works remarkably well, with the meatballs even getting a little brown, at least the ones on top. My no-salt seasoning contained onion powder, garlic powder, and other things. I found it to be a bit spicy, and might reduce the quantity next time, or use rosemary or Italian..."

Ingredients: lean ground turkey, eggs...

"Leaving some of the soup unprocessed gives an attractive appearance and makes ladeling from the pot simpler. Vegetarian, egg and gluten free."

Ingredients: onions, garlic cloves, salt...

"This is a very hearty and tasty, good-for-you chicken recipe. I created this to break away from the tradition tomato sauces and Itailian chicken recipes. I use boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut to fit better in crock. The chicken gets so tender it falls apart and I don't have bones to fish out. I have made this with either wine and cooking..."

Ingredients: pitted black olives, dried parsley...

"Bone-in chicken breasts are slow cooked in a smoky tomato sauce with rice and peas, then topped with fresh cherry tomatoes and cilantro. The mix of fresh and cooked vegetables makes this meal pretty enough to entertain from the crock pot! From Ladies Home Journal."

Ingredients: ground cumin, fresh ground pepper...

"A great way to make lamb!"

Ingredients: pepper, cooking oil...

"I didn't like any of the recipes I found for Cream of Potato Soup so I invented my own. I didn't measure anything as I made it, so the measurements are a little imprecise."

Ingredients: rice flour, garlic, milk...

"Easy, simple, delicious recipe - the most prep time is for the curry paste. But it provides enough for two curries. For a vegetarian version, leave out the chicken and whack in more veg!"

Ingredients: coconut milk, coriander seeds...

"Not at all authentic--but delicious, filling, and easy! It's a wonderful dinner to come home to on a chilly winter's night; all you need is a crusty loaf of bread, a green salad, and some nicely-aged cheese and you'll have a wonderful, rustic meal. You can use pork--in fact, pork is standard in cassoulet--but as we don't eat pork, I..."
