crock pot

Onion soup-five onions and up to a stick of butter-eight hours later, the onions are carmelized and you may add the add the beef broth.I buy the kind in the carton and use one carton. Cut up french or italian bread and greyere cheese or use swiss if you must and pour the soup over it- and melt it all together in the micro wave. If you wish you may broil it to make the cheese melt but it works just as well in the microwave
II
one cut up chicken (you can remove skin if you like), chicken broth (canned or carton does not matter) to cover, jar of pasta sauce, canned mushrooms (i use those tiny cans and the whole mushroom caps since this allows dh to remove them lol, if you like
six or eight hours later, make pasta and serve chicken cattiatore
III
beef cubes-bottom round or bought stew meat, carrots and onions-some peas if you want to add at the end-
can of tomato sauce, worsteshire sauce and ketchup(how much is up to you-we like it spicy) -six to eight hours
make egg noodles and you have goulash with a kick-add jalepinos if you really like it hot.
You can also delete the veggies and used chopped meat and call it sloppy joes or josephinas.

Great recipes. I am from New Zealand and I have often wondered how much butter is in a 'stick' of butter. Can you tell me please? (we buy butter in 500g paper wrapped blocks which have 50g markings on the paper, making it easy to cut up for cooking without having to weigh the stuff)
