CROCK POT MEXICAN STEW from Christy

Christy is a cousin of mine. She lives and dies by her crock pot so she emailed these to me from memory.

Ingredients:
2 cans creamed corn
1 can Rotel diced tomatoes with green chiles
1 small bag frozen corn
1 can sliced potatoes (then she sliced them some more)
2 cups chicken broth (or 1 small can)
2 big handfuls rice (used brown)

Spices to Taste:
dried/minced onion ('cause I hate chopping)
red pepper flakes
garlic
Tobasco
Cayenne pepper

She also added one can of black beans (drained). This one has to cook longer since the rice is dry... took about 5 hours on HIGH.
You could also cook the rice before if you have time.
They like thicker soup, so she only added enough chicken broth for the rice to soak up, then a little more right before she served it.
Check it around 3 hours to see what it tastes like and add more spices.

CROCK POT SPAGHETTI SAUCE from Christy

1 can tomato paste (she uses the Italian)
pasta of choice

Brown the ground beef and drain it.
drain the mushrooms.

This EASILY serves 4, but she has also added additonal cans of tomoatoes and paste when she's had a bunch of people over.

CROCK POT WHITE CHICKEN CHILI from Christy

3/4 t oregano
1/8 t cloves

White cheddar cheese -- shredded (optional)
Fritos

Directions:
Literally dump all of this in the crock pot.
Stir it a couple of times and turn it on low for at least 4 hours.
Serve with Fritos (and cheese) on top... or you can put the Fritos on the bottom of the bowl before serving if you want them to be softer.
This is cheap and good -- She and her husband usually have enough left for lunch the next day.
