These recipes for chicken entrees and casseroles cooked in the crockpot are the best. Remember to follow cooking times and instructions carefully, and that you can substitute many ingredients for those called for in the recipes.

Linda LarsenThis fabulous and super easy recipe has the best taste and texture. It was one of the first recipes I posted at Busy Cooks, and remains one of the most popular.

Linda LarsenI adapted this recipe, which started as a skillet meal, for the crockpot. It's really delicious and easy to make too. Serve it with hot cooked rice or couscous, or even some penne or orzo pasta.

Linda LarsenI love this recipe; it's creamy, smooth, and so flavorful. And the chicken is moist and tender. I usually add chopped onion and baby carrots when I make it; you could use bell peppers, mushrooms, and garlic too.

Linda LarsenWild rice is the only 'rice' I've found that cooks well in the crockpot. Brown rice is okay, but wild rice holds up best during the long cooking time. This homey and comforting recipe is easy and delicious.

Linda LarsenAfter a critique by a reader, I revised this recipe to more closely resemble the real thing. If you like spicy foods, you can increase the cayenne pepper and Tabasco amounts even more. If, like me, you're a wimp, reduce them or eliminate them. The andouille sausage will add lots of spice!

Linda LarsenLemonade is the secret ingredient in this sweet and tart recipe. It uses chicken thighs so it can cook for a longer period of time without drying out. It's perfect served over rice pilaf with a simple fruit salad on the side, or with some of late winter's first asparagus.

Linda LarsenWhen companies started making bottled alfredo sauces, my life became so much easier! The product is wonderfully creamy and smooth and works very well in the crockpot. This colorful recipe is a meal in one.
For one of the easiest recipes of all time that your kids will love, try this three ingredient recipe. I myself always buy low sodium varieties of canned soup because I think they are more flavorful and better for you too. Serve this one over roasted vegetables.
If you want to cook a whole chicken, this is the recipe for you. The chicken turns out tender, moist, and very flavorful, with a fabulous sticky coating.
Well, since bacon improves just about anything, you can see why this recipe is so delicious! Enjoy.
