Sure!! I think I'm collecting a compendium.. the crock pot (we got one of those frozen throw into the crock pot meals, so we're cheating) seems to be an easy way to get a dinnewr done in reasonable time snce we both work..

Anyway, I'll get started on the recipes. I'll do a separate post for each one so you don't get confused.

These recipes were given to me by my mom. I have no idea where she got them. However, you'll notice that after awhile they kinda taste the same -- maybe because she always uses a tomato base!
Anyway, they're really easy and quick -- esp. the chicken salsa!!
