Top 10 Make Ahead Crockpot Dinners

TIME. We all need more of this precious commodity! Unfortunately we all fill our schedules up with meetings, errands, appointments, games, etc. to the point where our own health can be put on the back burner. A large percentage of the population does not place nutrition as a priority and will resort to fast food fixes when in a time crunch. Consuming too much fast food can lead to nutritional deficiencies, too many calories consumed and after a while, obesity.

So what can you do when you’re crazy busy to stay healthier? PLAN. Take the time out of one day to plan your meals for the week. “But I still don’t have time to cook!” Well, cooking doesn’t have to take a lot of time. Throw some ingredients into your crockpot, put it on a timer and dinner is ready when you get home!
