For Good

This time of year, I love my crockpot because we tend to be out until dinnertime and if I don't have something prepared when we get home, it's so tempting to eat out or eat something that's full of preservatives, sodium, fat, etc.
What are your favorite crockpot meals? I am particularly looking for kid-friendly stuff and chicken-based meals.
