I hate take-out. It’s crazy expensive and really takes a lot of time getting there and waiting. I find with a little Sunday afternoon grocery and meal planning I can have healthy, easy, and delicious meals ready even on the busiest nights!

Check out these slow cooker recipes, I think you’ll find them convenient too!

Below the large photo, you’ll find smaller photos (you may have to wait about 5 seconds for them to load.) Click the box that reads ‘make this recipe’ for the full recipe. You can print it from that page if you like.

This is my very favorite slow cooker. It has a clip-tight gasket lid, three cooking modes, and a thermometer probe. Alternately, this slow cooker has almost the same features but is somewhat cheaper.
