It's me and my roommate, though we both like leftovers, so recipes for more might be just as good. We are not fussy eaters, though she is allergic to onions. Any healthy crock pot recipes would be great!! ThanksJust bought a new crock pot? Any delicious recipes for one or two?
INGREDIENTS


4 pounds rump roast


2 (10.5 ounce) can beefs broth


1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer


6 French rolls


2 tablespoons butter





DIRECTIONS


Trim excess fat from the rump roast, and place in a slow cooker. Add the beef broth and beer. Cook on Low setting for 7 hours.


Preheat oven to broil Split French rolls, and spread with butter. Broil til toasty. Slice the meat on the diagonal, and place on the rolls. Serve the sauce for dipping.


I add some Provolone cheese to the sandwich. This recipe is super good, super easy and you can make as much or little as you want depending on the roast size.





allrecipes.com has tons of recipes. Look there.Just bought a new crock pot? Any delicious recipes for one or two?
I am assuming that your crock pot came with instructions and a sample of recipes, right? You see, once you start with a few actual written recipes and get the crock pot method down, you hardly need a recipe anymore. Besides googling crock pot recipes, look at the top of this page where it says search for questions and check that out as crock pot recipes are always requested on this site and I bet there are a bunch there too.

I love my Crock pot =]. I make New England Clam Chowder in it. No onions, and it tastes great.





Also Chili is excellent and you do not need to add onions.





Just beans. Beef. And Tomatoe sauce/ Paste %26amp; seasoning to taste. Throw in some spices %26amp; make your own mix up.








Yum!





Ha ha %26lt;3 Good luck!
I love to do a roast beef in the crock pot with beef broth, baby carrots, and peeled cubed potatoes.
