12 slow cooker dinner ideas

No one wants to get in the kitchen and slave over the stove.  Especially not when it’s so hot outside.  Who wants to heat the house up even more?  Or maybe you’re just really busy.  With the longer days, there seems to be so many more activities going on – baseball, swim team, dance, even just being outdoors until all hours of the night.  And if you have a slow cooker or crock pot, you know how awesome it is to just add the stuff for your meal, and kinda forget about it.

12 Slow Cooker Dinner Ideas

Slow Cooker Corned Beef with Champagne ~How Was Your Day? – Give the traditional corned beef recipe an upgrade with the addition of a little leftover bubbly.

Crock-Pot Pork Stew ~The Country Chic Cottage -I have to admit, I don’t think I’ve ever had pork stew.  I like stew, and I like pork, so it reasons that I’d like this.  Right?

Healthy Chicken Tortilla Soup Slow Cooker Recipe ~Must Have Mom – Chicken Tortilla Soup is one of our family’s favorites.  Now, we can make it at home, and in a slow cooker.  YAY!

Low Carb Crock-Pot Pork Chops ~Wife Mom Geek – Who needs Cream of Whatever soup when you have delicious pork chops that are healthy, too.  This is one of those slow cooker dinner ideas I would not have thought of.

Slow Cooker Shredded Mexican Chicken ~How Was Your Day? – This is a great addition to burrito bowls, tacos, on top of green salads, or just eat it with rice and our homemade guacamole and Chunky Salsa.

Crock-Pot Chili ~Typically Simple – Who doesn’t like chili?  While it’s traditionally thought of as a cold weather meal, I like chili year round.  Check out our Slow Cooker Chili Three Ways, too.
