Does anyone have any IBS safe recipes or tips for cooking IBS safe with one? I've never used one before, so I'm a bit mystified. I hear they're a godsend for busy working gals like me...just have to read the instructions and see how to use the darn thing ;P

I just ordered a few Vegan cookbooks from Amazon, just to try, and one of them is a Vegan Slow Cooker cookbook. Once I receive it, if there's anything good, I'll definitely post!

It's called "The Simple Little Vegan Slow Cooker". The reviews were kind of so-so, but it was only $10 and I needed something to get me up to free shipping level - LOL. I figured, at the very least, it could give me some ideas.
I also bought "Sinfully Vegan: 140 Decadent Desserts to Satisfy Every Vegan's Sweet Tooth" ( ), and "Mediterranean Vegan Kitchen". Can't wait to get them!

I bought a Hamilton Beach 3 and 1 crockpot this weekend at walmart. And I wanted to share my first recipe that turned out yummy tonight for dinner.
1 turkey london broil 1 bottle of FF catalina dresssing 1 pk of lipton onion mushroom soup mix 2 TBS of ketchup 1 TBS of brown sugar 2 cups of water
cook on low 5-8 hrs (i did this right before work and it was so tender and made the house smell so yummy when I came home.)
pour 1 cup of water in crockpot bowl 1/2 onion mix and alittle dressing stir around quickly. Add turkey breast spray with pam canola oil pour rest of onion soup and squeeze approx 2 TBS of ketchup over turkey. Pour 1/2 bottle of Catalina or FF french dressing over the breast so its covered and add other cup of water so it makes a gravy.
When I arrived home from work it was basically so tender it was falling apart. Pulled pieces apart and served on french bread I cut into rolls and served with baked lays chips.
this was so easy.. and so yummy

Mmmm - sounds good!
I just love my slow cooker - I hardly ever use it, though. I just love how incredibly tender meat dishes turn out - I did a whole chicken in mine once, and when I tried to take it out it just totally fell apart! LOL.
Still waiting on my Vegan slow cooker recipe book.

My friend just lent me a low-carb crock-pot recipe book. I'm going to look through it to see what I can find, but after glancing through it, I see lots of yummy chicken dishes and some vegetarian chili! Mmmmmm! I'll share any I try out!

Actually I was told it was the turkey breast(boneless). I get it at my local farmers market but I have seen it at whole foods and other grocers. You can ask your butcher about it at your local food market.
