"Corny Beanie Weenies!."
(from a country preacher in Mississippi…wife & 2 teenage sons)
Mix one can of good baked beans
We use a good sized can of beans (14-16 ounces, I think) and
get a kind that we like (maybe with brown sugar, onion, and bacon)!.
There are several kinds of good baked beans!.
and a package of Oscar Meier Weiners (all sliced up)!.
with a can of whole kernel corn (drained)
Any way, heat up these three ingredients, and serve with brown bread
(maybe toasted !?) and a glass of milk!.
It doesn't get any easier than this, and is suprisingly good!
Pattsywattsy notes:
1!.)Might put ingredients in a casserole dish and top with corn muffin mix!.
2!.)Use a pound of cooked gr!. beef or gr!. turkey or cooked Jimmy Dean w/sage sausage or some smoked sausage!.

Some of my favorite, simple, slow cooker recipes only have a few ingredients!.
BBQ chicken wings: place a bag of frozen chicken wings in a slow cooker, add one bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6 hours!. You can also do this recipe with frozen mini meatballs (throw some canned pineapple chunks in with the BBQ sauce for some extra flavor!)
Chili: There are packets in the seasoning isle at the grocery store for slow cooker chili!. They're fabulous! All you do is brown some meat, throw it in the slow cooker with some canned tomatoes and this pack of seasoning (I think it's by McCormick)!. The directions are right on the back of the seasoning pack!. It's delicious!
There are also a lot of 5 or 4 ingredient cookbooks that work well with slow cookers, check some of them out!
Good luck and enjoy!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I love to make beef stew in my slow cooker!. I chop up some steak (it's cheaper than stewing beef plus you can use cheaper less tender cuts--the slow cooking will tenderize the meat) and dredge with flour (add some salt and pepper to the flour)!. Cut up whatever type of vegetables you like!. I like turnip, carrots, onions and celery!. Add some broth--homemade or canned is fine--to cover and cook on low for 8 or more hours!. You can also cook it on high for 4 to 6 hours but I find it's more flavourful with longer cooking!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
