If you have a busy family then you need easy meal recipes. If you aren’t using your crock-pot then START! Each of these recipes have only 5 ingredients, making prep easy. Make these even better by fixing the ingredients ahead and freezing them in gallon ziplock bags. (TIP: Use this easy kitchen tool to stand the bag up for easy filling) Then on the day you need them just pull them out of the freezer and empty the bag into the crock-pot. What could be easier on a busy weekday?
