Google for recipes, or there may even be a couple included in the box. There are a million slow cooker recipes out there, there are whole cookbooks devoted just to slow cooker dishes. My pot roast recipe came off the back of a Liption Onion Soup Mix box. And I've got another one I want to try that is on the back of a bottle of A1 Steak Sauce. I don't know about recipes for mini crockpots but they're probably out there too.

If you experiment with it and like it, you can always get a bigger one. I got mine off Amazon and I don't think I paid more than $30 for it. Then you can buy ingredients in larger quantities (usually cheaper), make more and have leftovers which means you are cooking less often but still have homemade meals on hand.
