Neat Sloppy Joes
Great recipe, but a little too sweet. Next time will omit the brown sugar altogether. As another reviewer said, the sugar in the ketchup and soup would be enough. It gets better with slow simmering as well...at least 25 min simmering helps blend the flavors and makes the beef so much more tender. I also threw in finely chopped green and red pepper, and sprinkled shredded mozzarella over the hot meat mixture in the buns when serving. Absolutely delicious with yam fries dipped in campfire sauce (as in Red Robin's, 1/2 c mayo mixed with 3 tblsp Bulls Eye barbeque sauce).

Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff I
Excellent base recipe...tweaked it a bit like other reviewers. Came out the best Stroganoff ever, and my 4 yr old asked if we could have it for dinner every night! Loved the tang of cream cheese in it! My changes...I used blade steak and browned the meat first,frying the onions as well. Added a bit of beef boullion to the water, and sprinkled 1/4 packet of onion soup mix over the meat in the slow cooker. I used cream of mushroom soup and canned mushrooms, and I wouldn't change it! Also tossed in a couple of tablespoons of sour cream with the cream cheese at the end. Served it on whole wheat broad noodles the first night with steamed veggies, and the next night I served it over boiled, slightly mashed baby white potatoes with a salad. Two totally different meals. Absolutely delicious!!

Chicken Chili
Excellent recipe! Modified it slightly as I was looking to use up a roasted chicken from the grocery store and other ingredients on hand. Made the following substitutions...cut onion to about a cup and a half. Didn't use cayenne (ran out) and didn't want too much heat, so I sprinkled in a few pepper flakes. Added chopped red pepper and celery. Didn't have canned chopped tomatoes, so I used a jar of sauce along with the paste. Had only one can of mixed beans (red kidney and mixed white beans), so I tossed that in and added a can of white beans in tomato sauce. Added some fresh chopped parsley before serving. Served with garlic bread. Absolutely delicious, good combination of spices...smelled heavenly simmering on the stove!
