My video shows you how to make 3 healthy crock pot meals at one time. You can prepare them all ahead of time, freeze them, and save them for later!
Having these on hand is so important for me as a new mom, working mom and just busy person in general! Who wants to actually cook dinner every night?
NOT ME!
You can also have these to make for a friend who is about to have a baby, going through surgery, etc. and you want to give them a meal for when they want it.
This will save you time, energy, motivation, and money by doing this at once! Watch my video for instructions and then you’ll see the 3 recipes below. Each recipe serves about 4 people. If you freeze the recipes, just pull them out of the freezer least 24 hours in advance so they can thaw in the refrigerator. Don’t put the ingredients frozen in the crockpot, it needs to be thawed.
