You know I love slow cooker meals! They are so easy and so delicious. Did you know you can meal prep slow cooker meals? Just dump all of the ingredients in a baggy and freeze! This round up has 4 delicious meals that you can prep and freeze in just about 20 minutes! That is 4 dinners in 20 minutes!! You can't beat that!!!

Slow cooker dump and go meals are so great for busy mamas, but sometimes you don't even have time to measure out ingredients before leaving to take the kiddos to school or heading to work! With freezing these meals, you will literally just have to dump the contents of the ziplock into a crockpot, turn the crockpot on and you are good to go!!

And yes, I am mentioning turning on the slow cooker because I have forgotten that step and we came home to a thawed but uncooked dinner. We just laughed and instead of the crockpot meal I had planned, I made a 15 minute skillet meal like this Cheesy Potato Hamburger Skillet. The kids loved it just as much and it was definitely so nice having a quick recipe I could whip up in no time for my hungry family!!

In the round up below, you can click to see the full details and printable recipes for easy meal prep. That is how I keep up with what meal is going in each bag! This is a must for me because my thoughts are often in many places at once, I know I can't be the only one who feels that way! So this helps me keep them all straight!

Okay so, here are the 4 meals I prepped in 20 minutes!
