Basic crock pot stew

This is the general formula. Put in a bunch of veggies (broccoli, celery, carrots, mushrooms and onions and tomatoes are great, anything), a little meat if you wish (chicken is great), bunch of spices/flavorings (worchestire sauce, chilles, sage, thyme, oregano, a couple of bay leaves, salt, pepper, anything you please). Can put in a little barley or lentils. Cover everything with water until it just about covers everything, veggies will release a lot of fluid, so you don't need much. Crock pot on low 8 hours or high 4 hours. Pictured below is chicken stew.

Pro tip: If you slow cook chicken by itself you'll have some stock left over. Save it for stew! Really makes it extra flavorful.
