Dump and Done Recipes

The slow cooker is the power house behind most of the recipes in this collection (with some easy Instant Pot ones too), and they're exactly what it sounds like. Just add all your ingredients to the crockpot, put the lid on and walk away. And when you come back, there's a delicious meal waiting for you to enjoy. One that tastes like you've been cooking it all day!

The low and slow heat of the slow cooker is what makes these recipes flavorful, simple and convenient. A tough cut of beef can become incredibly tender in the crockpot and meals that would take hours on the stovetop with hands-on work become effortless and hands-off. Those are the best kinds of recipes in our house! It's for this reason my crockpot pepper steak, cabbage roll casserole and loaded baked potato soup are some of the most popular here.
