Crock Pot Chile Verde

Crock Pot Chile Verde by Nancy Miyasaki

This is a super easy and delicious Chile Verde. We make a great Chile Verde from scratch with fresh tomatillos, but it's a lot of work. If you're tight for time, this recipe is 90% as good with a third the effort. The canned green salsa is made from tomatillos and the combination is really delicious. You can probably find a larger…

Slow-cooker Beef Stew from Argentina

Slow-cooker Beef Stew from Argentina by John Spottiswood

I slightly adapted thie famous Argentine beef stew to be slightly more flavorful...and thus to my liking. The extra cumin seeds, paprika, cayenne, salt and pepper don't take away from the flavor of the meat and vegetables, but they give an added kick that makes this classic family stew extraordinary. We had it at our family reunion,…

Slow Cooker Beef with Barley Soup

Slow Cooker Beef with Barley Soup by John Spottiswood

Cooking the pearl barley a long time gives this soup a nutty flavor and smooth texture. It's very different from the chewy texture you get when cooking regular barley over a shorter period. I adapted this from an America's Test Kitchen recipe and used about half the beef they called for and added the mushrooms. If you have big beef…

Pork Stew with Wine

Pork Stew with Wine by John Spottiswood

This is another phenomenal recipe that I adapted from a recipe from James Villas in Stews, Bogs, and Burgoos. I still have not found a recipe from this book that is not amazing. Anyway, don't be thrown off by the fruit in this recipe. It blends in with the wine, meat and vegetables to make a luscious combination. This recipe…

Simple Crock Pot Chili

Simple Crock Pot Chili by Kathy Armstrong

This simple recipe has been modified over time from the recipe that came with a crock pot I got years ago. It has changed some and I especially love it in the fall and winter. A football season favorite. Sometimes I will serve it over noodles and make a ChiliMac supper with a small side salad.

Greek Beef Stew

Greek Beef Stew by John Spottiswood

This is a delicious ethnic variation on classic beef stew. I think the cinnamon gives it a unique and delicious flavor. Adults and kids we have served this to both loved it. I adapted this from Mark Bittman's How to Cook Everything.
