Dump-and-go recipes are some of my favorite types of recipes to make during the week. They are super simple to make up, and consist of mostly pantry ingredients!
These recipes make it easy to prepare in advance to ensure you have everything on hand when you need it, and the slow cooker recipe is also very budget-friendly.
When you make these recipes you will get plenty of hearty meals and amazing flavors that the entire family will enjoy. Perfect for the soup season and chilly weather ahead.
Plus, I don’t know about you, but I love the fact that I can basically dump the ingredients into the slow cooker, set, it and leave everything to cook.
