We have a crockpot, minimal chopping but still tastes good recipes? Already doing things like basic pastas, chilli and soups but looking for more variety, something that can be batch made for future meals too🙏

Looking for some genuinely easy snack ideas that need zero cooking and take maybe 5–10 minutes to put together.

A few I've been making lately:

1. Biscuit + peanut butter bites – Britannia biscuits with peanut butter and sliced banana.
2. Cracker chaat – Britannia crackers topped with chopped onion, tomato, coriander, sev and a little chutney.
3. Cream cheese crackers – Britannia crackers with cream cheese, cucumber and a sprinkle of chilli flakes.
4. Biscuit yoghurt cups – Crush a few Britannia biscuits, add yoghurt and fruit, and layer it in a glass.
5. Quick cheese crackers – Britannia crackers + cheese + tomato/cucumber + oregano.

What are your go-to no-cook snacks when you want something quick but don't want to order food or actually cook?

I need help, I love pot roast potatoes and carrots, I love a good beef stew with potatoes and carrots, (some onion or celery is okay but the focus is potatoes and carrots). How can I find a simple but good recipe for this combination not particularly big on the beef or steak but that's okay too, pot roast is good but I'm 80% more for the vegetables then the meat, I know meat is required for flavor. So asking reddit for tips or help on making a great dish

Questions: either a roast or stew looking for ideas for good full flavor and not too difficult

This one's perfect for this time of year. There's kind of a lot of ingredients but I swear it's easy!

Recipe:

Ingredients

• Olive oil
• 2 chicken breasts, seasoned with Italian seasoning, garlic salt, and pepper
• 4 tbsp butter
• 1 medium onion
• 1 jalapeño
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1.5 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp chili powder
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp pepper
• 2 cans mild fire-roasted diced green chiles
• 2 cans Great Northern beans
• 2 cans corn
• 4 cups chicken broth
• 5 oz cream cheese
• 1/2 cup heavy cream

Toppings

• Cilantro
• Green onion
• Shredded white cheddar or mozzarella
• Fresh lime
• Avocado

Steps

1. Start out by cutting your onion, jalapeño, and garlic. Heat up some olive oil over medium/medium-high heat in a large pot. Add in your chicken breasts and season with Italian seasoning, garlic salt, and pepper. Sear on both sides, then set aside. The chicken doesn’t need to be fully cooked at this point.
2. Turn the heat down slightly and add in your butter. Then add the onion and jalapeño. Sauté that for a few minutes while scraping the bottom of the pot to get all that yummy flavor. Add the garlic. Stir, and then add the cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir and sauté for another five minutes.
3. Then add the fire-roasted chiles, beans, corn, and chicken broth. Add the chicken back in and bring to a boil. Turn the heat to low and cover. Let this simmer on low for 25 to 30 minutes.
4. Once the time is up, take out the chicken, shred it, and add it back in. Add in the cream cheese and stir. It will look a little clumpy, but don’t worry. As it simmers, it will become smooth. Let that simmer for another five minutes, then add the heavy cream and stir. Cut up your toppings, and that’s it!
