1. Hash Brown Casserole with Tex-Mex Flair
Fall is the perfect time to cozy up with some comforting meals, and I’ve got just the recipe for you. In this video, I’ll be showing you how to make a delicious Hash Brown Casserole with a Tex-Mex flair. This recipe is super easy and perfect for a weeknight dinner or even for entertaining guests. So grab your crockpot and let’s get started!
1.1 Ingredients
To make this flavorful Hash Brown Casserole, you’ll need the following ingredients:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion, diced
- Garlic, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
- 30-ounce bag of shredded hash browns (frozen)
- 1 can of cheddar cheese soup
- 1 can of Rotel (drained)
- Taco seasoning (homemade or store-bought)
- 2 cups of Mexican blend cheese
1.2 Cooking Process
Start by browning the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the beef is browned, add in the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
In your crockpot, add the frozen shredded hash browns and break them up slightly with a fork. Next, add in the cooked beef and onion mixture.
To make it cheesy and flavorful, you’ll add in the cheddar cheese soup and drained Rotel. Make sure to mix everything together well. Then, sprinkle in your desired amount of taco seasoning. If you have a pre-packaged taco seasoning, use the whole pack.
Now it’s time to add the cheese! Mix in one cup of the Mexican blend cheese and save the other cup for later.
Cover the crockpot and cook the casserole on low heat for about 4 to 5 hours. If you’re in a hurry, you can cook it on high for a couple of hours.

2. Beef and Broccoli
Nothing says fall like a warm and hearty beef dish, and Beef and Broccoli is a classic that never disappoints. In this section, I’ll be sharing with you a simple and delicious Beef and Broccoli recipe that you can easily make in your crockpot.
2.1 Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this tasty Beef and Broccoli dish:
- 1.5 pounds chuck roast, thinly sliced
- 2/3 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 2 cans of beef consommé or beef broth
- 2/3 cup dark brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 6 cloves of garlic, minced
- 4 cups broccoli florets
2.2 Cooking Process
Start by mixing together the soy sauce, beef consommé or broth, dark brown sugar, sesame oil, and minced garlic in a bowl. This will be your flavorful sauce for the beef and broccoli.
Next, slice the chuck roast into thin strips. If there’s excess fat, feel free to trim it off.
Place the sliced beef in your crockpot and pour the sauce mixture over it. Give everything a good stir to ensure that the beef is evenly coated in the sauce.
Cover the crockpot and cook the beef on low heat for about 6 hours. Keep an eye on it, as the thin slices of beef may cook faster. You want the beef to be tender and easily shred apart.
Once the beef is cooked to your desired tenderness, add in the broccoli florets. Mix them in with the beef and allow them to cook in the remaining heat for about 30 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender but still has a slight crunch.

To bring the flavors of Tuscany into your kitchen, gather these ingredients:
