I'm not much of a recipe person. I tend to just throw things together and adjust as needed.
Here's what I did:
*half a rotisserie chicken (the kind you buy precooked, it was the leftovers from dinner)
*3 or 4 or maybe 5 cubed potatoes
*5 or so sliced carrots
*3 heads of garlic (maybe 30 cloves?) peeled and left whole
*3 or 4 bay leaves
*heaping palmful of dried rosemary
*some paprika, just cuz it smelled good
*salt, pepper
Put it all in the crock pot and added some water, left it cooking about 12 hours. I did try to pick out the majority of the bones before serving it, but that's as "fancy" as I got with the prep.
Right now the crock pot is going with a new chicken and lentils. Gotta add some carrots and brown rice. Forgot to buy celery, which I really like in soups.
Next week I'm gonna make a beef stew. Since SKnot doesn't eat red meat, I'll cook it while he's at his dad's, and I can freeze some for later. The last beef stew I made was really good. Looooooove the crock pot!
