With busy schedules, it can be hard to find time every evening to put a fresh home-cooked meal on the table. My go-to assistant is my handy dandy trusty Crock-Pot!
I’ve had it for several years now and it’s not just my go-to device for cold-weather cooking — we use it year-round too! My slow cooker is such a time saver!
Who would have thought that you can make easy family slow cooker meals?
There’s just something so comforting about having a fresh, warm, homemade meal for dinner. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been saved by this baby.
In the morning, I just toss all the ingredients into the pot, then go about my day. That’s how convenient slow cooker freezer dump meals are.
When dinner time comes around all I have to do is pull out the plates and serve! And let’s not forget how nice it is to have only one pot to clean after dinner!
Effortless meals + minimum cleanup = total win!

Below, I’ve collected a great little list of Family Friendly EASY Crock Pot Meals! With each recipe you’ll find that the ingredients are those that you can easily find in your local grocery store, or you probably have most of them in your pantry already! I’m loading up our family meal plan with lots of these meals!
