The easiest is salsa chicken. Throw frozen chicken breasts in the crock pot, add a jar of salsa and some sliced green pepper. Cook on low 8 hours. When done, shred it, put it in a wrap with some sour cream and maybe some shredded cheese. So yummy.

Frozen veggie stew mix + lipton onion mix + pot roast. We recently got ones from trader joe's that have this cabernet seasoning on them. So good!

Chicken Taco Soup-- a staple in our house. Freezes really well.
Koren short rib tacos-- labor intensive but the BEST tacos I've ever had.
Asian Peanut butter pork
Pot roast

Italian Beef in the crockpot. There are tons of recipes for it on All Recipes. I use one packet of dry Italian dressing, a jar of pepperoncini with half of the juice drained, a cup of water and a 3 lb. roast.

I've done it with a whole chicken or bone-in chicken breasts too. I also often throw in bok choy right at the end.

That's good, but it's a small recipe. Either double it or cook it in a smaller container in the crockpot to prevent burning (I use my rice cooker insert inside my crockpot).

Pork tenderloin, 1 sliced onion, a cup of apple juice/apple cider/water, a bag of dried cherries (I couldn't find these so did cherry flavored craisins with success), a teaspoon of dried thyme, a tablespoon of quick cooking tapioca (this is a great thickener for any crockpot meal).

Serve over noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes.

If you aren't opposed to seasoning packets. I made this yesterday and it was great. I added carrots:

Elly, I just have to say that I made the loaded baked potato soup yesterday and it was amazing! So tasty and the perfect winter meal for a cold day.

BBQ Beer chicken thighs: sotastysoyummy.blogspot.com/2009/07/barbecue-beer-chicken-thighs.html

I make my own chicken broth in the crockpot ... when I roast a whole chicken or if we have bone-in pieces, I save the bones in a Ziplock freezer bag. I also save vegetable scraps (tops of onions and carrots, leftover celery). I toss all that in the crockpot with salt and whole peppercorns, garlic bulbs, a splash of vinegar, and enough water to cover it. I've also done vegetable broth - same recipe minus the bones.

I haven't tried this yet but it looks good: sotastysoyummy.blogspot.com/2012/10/crockpot-coq-au-vin.html

I also haven't tried the chicken tortilla soup, a whole chicken, or a turkey breast, but I want to do it soon.

I buy those huge packs of chicken thighs (for, like, $4 a package!) so there have been months where we've had this meal a LOT. So much that MH, who never complains about what I make, asked me to please make something else.
