Slow Cooker Meal Prep Ideas:

  • SO MANY of these recipes can be frozen as “dump meals.” To meal prep with VERY little extra effort, simply buy twice the ingredients and then measure everything out twice — Once in the slow cooker for today’s meal, and once in a freezer bag to store for later. Write the time required & any additional steps/ingredients on the bag with a sharpie so anyone can prepare dinner later!
  • If you plan to start a slow cooker meal before going to work, it might be best to go ahead and prep the recipe the night before! Simply throw the ingredients you need in the slow cooker (or a bag/bowl), then all you have to do is plug in the slow cooker (or dump the bag/bowl into it). This way even a missed alarm won’t mean you’re dinner plans are ruined!
  • When doing long-term meal prepping, use different proteins or seasonings to avoid getting in a rut! Instead of having Salsa Chicken 3 times a month, maybe one could be a Pesto chicken and another a Salsa pork! Mongolian beef, Mongolian chicken, and Mongolian shrimp all can be paired with different sides so that you get variety without a ton of every work.

    I feel like I've been neglecting my slow cooker later. I don't know why, because I LOVE IT! Thanks for reminding me of how awesome it can be, with all these great recipes. I'm actually heading out to the grocery store this afternoon, and I think I'm going to put that Mongolian Beef on my list!
