35 Back to School Crockpot Recipes

When you think of back to school do you get a little bit stressed out? Busy days, rushing the kids out the door, trying to think of what to make for dinner on top of the 1,000 things you have to get done in a day.  No worries–I am here to help you just a little bit! Check out these 35 Back to School Crockpot Recipes to help you on those busy nights!

 

As a busy, full-time working Mom I know that easy, quick meals and snacks are the key to a happy, healthy family. I must admit at this point in my life I love my crockpot. These easy slow cooker recipes are a lifesaver.

Sundays are often spent throwing ingredients into my crockpot so weekly meals can cook away while I enjoy the day. Who doesn’t love an easy meal waiting for them when they get home? Or a delicious, healthy snack (my son’s favorite is crockpot applesauce) that you can pack in your child’s lunch?

 

Now that we have three kids running around our house {Ok, Jack is only crawling at this point, but still!} things are pretty crazy. When meal time comes around at the end of the day, I am exhausted and it really helps to have a meal waiting.

 

For example make a batch of this 4 Ingredient Cheesy Orzo {the picture above}, Lebanese Green Beans and this vegan Spanish Cauliflower Rice for the week. It really helps to have some easy, reheatable sides ready to go. I also like throwing out a plate of raw veggies to go with dinner.
