This time of year brings all sorts of added rushes. Everyone has to get back into the swing of the school schedule. There is drop-off, pick-up, after school activities, sports, playdates, homework groups, music lessons…..

As a working mom, I know that added stress of packing lunches AND planning dinners everyday is enough to push a sane person over the edge.  This is why I rely so heavily on my crockpot. It really is a busy family’s best friend.

So you don’t have to search around the endless recipes on Google or Pinterest, I thought I would put together a group of my favorite 30 Easy Crockpot Recipes for the family. These are all in my regular rotation and are loved by all.

  1. These will come very handy thank so much these all look delish!

  2. Are there good substitutes for all the cream of chicken/mushroom soups? Whole ingredients?

    1. That’s awesome. Thank you!

      Rachel, I’ve used a recipe for ‘cream of anything soup’ from Once a Month Meals, which is actually how I found Corey’s amazing crockpot lasagne soup–always served about twice a month chez nous.

  3. Katharine in Brussels says:

    Thank you Corey for this awesome roundup! Our family is yours ‘in reverse’: I’m veg and husband is not. I can make everything here, including the chicken recipes (although they won’t shred) with Quron chick’n pieces. I buy in bulk frozen so they can even be added at the same time as you add raw chick’n. And I am going to figure out how to veg that beef stew too! 🙂 Am so psyched… I have American family and friends visiting this week and was wondering what I was going to make, especially since I have kind of forgotten what we eat a lot in America. Thanks to you Corey–problem solved!

    1. Awesome Katharine! Can you get the veggie beef by you? There is a brand I use called Gardein and they make vegetarian friendly “beef-less beef tips”.

  4. Kelly Hedley says:

    I was wondering if these meals could be made, and then frozen for quick reheat on busy week night?

  5. Elizabeth says:

    Awesome post will definitely be trying these this fall… you also have honey balsamic pork roast in there twice also.
