Crocktober a girls best friend...recipes

    So it's official now and I can announce. Hubby got a new job which he starts tomorrow. This new job means set days and hours, as well as a good sized pay raise, and less stress for my awesome hubby. I am so excited because it also means, a easier schedule for our family :D So we are pretty stoked about that. I just had to share before getting to the recipes ;) the first recipe I am going to share is one of my families favorites...we have a lot of those lol. And then I will share a dessert :) happy Crocktober

Creamy Crockpot Chicken 

-Ingredients-
2chicken breasts
1 8oz package of cream cheese
1cup sour cream
1can of cream of chicken OR cream of mushroom soup
1package of Italian or ranch seasoning

Directions-
Mix all the ingredients except the chicken together and then place the chicken in the crockpot and pour mixture over chicken. Cook on low 4-6hrs Pull chicken and shred and mix into sauce. Serve over noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes. This is great served with a side of corn (or you can even add it to the recipe) and a side salad. This recipe is also very adaptable, sometimes I don't use creamed soup an it turns out great :) and a couple times I haven't had cream cheese and it was still yummy :) hope you enjoy 

Crockpot Apple Crisp Apples

Ingredients:

§  4-6 Apples (I like Granny smith so it helps cut the sweetness just a little)

§  1 cup Brown Sugar

§  1 cup Butter

§  3/4 cup Chopped Pecans

§  1 cup Instant Oats

§  1 teaspoon Cinnamon

 

Directions:

1. First, wash and core your apples.

2. Next, mix up your apple crisp ingredients in a medium-sized bowl.

3.  Stuff your apples with your apple crisp mixture.

4. Spray your crockpot/slow cooker with a non-stick spray, then gently place your apples inside.

5. Sprinkle the rest of the apple crisp topping over the apples, letting the rest fall to the bottom of the pot.

6. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours. When ready, the apples should be very soft to the touch/poke.

7. Serve by cutting in half and topping with ice cream (if desired) (personally I like to eat it with a pecan praline...but you could always just do vanilla to :P )
