Two of my favorites are making my own "Trash" (Now more commonly known as Chex Mix) and the amazing Crock Pot Pizza recipe I found on a BBS years ago. The Trash recipe involves an open crock, while the pizza recipe only takes about an hour and a half to melt the cheese and warm the meats and other toppings.
