You can never have enough slow cooker recipes, especially ones like these Easy Dump & Go Slow Cooker Recipes where you literally have little to no prep work to make your dinner.
These recipes are perfect for those on-the-go families or just super busy weeknights. You can set your dinner up for the whole family ahead of time in the morning and let the slow cooker do the heavy lifting.
Plus, when you make easy slow cooker recipes, generally there are a lot fewer dishes used to cook your simple dinner. AKA fewer dishes to clean afterward, if you’re catching my drift.
Both of these things are bonuses for me when I am trying to cook delicious, healthy, and budget-friendly dinners for my family.
Another bonus is that these recipes will even be picky eater-friendly and of course use only simple ingredients that you can find in your pantry or at your local grocery store if you don’t already have everything,

How to make slow cooking even easier:
One tip I love is how to make the clean-up process from slow cooking even easier. If you have never heard to the slow cooker liners, this is a sign!
They are perfect because you can line the slow cooker with the bag, pour in the ingredients, and let them cook together.
Once you are done with dinner all you need to do is remove the liner, wipe out any condensation with a paper towel, and the cleaning is DONE!
There is no need to try to fit the slow cooker insert into the sink and scrape out the leftover dinner that is burnt on pieces.
What to serve with slow cooker recipes:
