2 Cheap and Cheerful Slow Cooker Recipes

Dear Ladies,

I have lost my job and our family's 2nd income. We need to cut down on grocery costs and I'm looking for some cheap and cheerful slow cooker recipes to feed a family of 5. Do you have any?

Blessings to you...

Dear Sandy,


Pulled pork (shoulder) with a can of crushed tomatoes and a can of dads root beer in the slow cooker is one of my fav's.  It also makes great leftovers!!!

Dear Sandy,


Slow cooker meals are my favourite. Very easy and  simple. Here's my slow cooker chili recipe.


ground beef - as much as you can afford (browned)
2 cans brown beans in tomato paste
1 can crushed tomatoes
2 cans kidney beans
1 can black beans
1 onion
1 garlic
1 cup frozen corn
1 green pepper chopped
couple drops of Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp chili powder
salt and pepper
1/2 cup of beer (only if you can afford)


I don't serve this dish to my sister Martha... she has some issue with the beans. But if no one in your family has issues. It's a great dish. For the kids you can ease up on the chili powder and the adults can add a few drops of Tabasco sauce in their own bowls.


Hope this helps!
