I am not a cook.
Ask my husband. He'll tell you straight up that he does most of the cooking around here.
See, I teach 4 days a week in the afternoons and evenings. There's not really a whole lot of time for meal prep. And by the time I'm done teaching, I'm usually starving so I don't have the patience to prepare anything. I find food and shove it in my face.
But I found a way to cook dinner for my family that works for me.
Enter freezer crock-pot meals.
My MIL bought us 5 freezer dinners for our anniversary and they have been a life saver. And I thought, I can do that!
So yesterday, I went grocery shopping and picked up ingredients for 8 crock-pot meals. Five of them are currently prepped and sitting in the freezer. I have another 1 to make tonight. The other 2 are simple enough to grab the ingredients and toss in the crock-pot in the morning.
Anyway, here are the recipes. Hopefully they'll help you out too! When I try the meals, I'll post pictures and reviews.
What are your go-to meals that are simple and quick?

Gosh, what a great idea! I totally need to do this. It's so frustrating to walk in my kitchen at 4:45 everyday and think about how i have to cook something. Would love to have it all done and I have way more energy in the morning anyway. Nice!
