Minimal effort crockpot meals/soups that are actually good?

Do they ever…

Our favorite. Just serve with a crusty baguette to mop up the sauce. If you have five extra minutes, it pairs well with green beans, blanched and tossed in a little olive oil or butter. Gift article:

+1 on salsa chicken…stupid easy but I was shocked how much my kids liked it. I did 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts over a large sliced onion with a jar of Wegman’s salsa verde on top. Cooked for 6 hours, shredded, served as soft tacos with fixings (cheese, pico, guacamole). Next time I’ll use it for burrito bowls with cilantro-lime rice (heat & serve packets) and black beans.

We do burrito bowls all the time with the heat and serve rice and black beans but I use precooked chicken from the store. This sounds like a much less processed alternative. I’m going to give it a try. Does it freeze and reheat well?

The crock pot roast on the A1 bottle is good and you only have to chop the onion. You can cut the potatoes in half if you like, but my kid does that. https://www.kraftheinz.com/a1/recipes/507411-slow-cooker-pot-roast

I general, we often put things in the crock pot the night before and put it in the refrigerator to cook the next morning if you don't mind doing the prep the evening before.

It does- when my kids were younger I frequently froze 1/2. Now that I have teenagers they eat all the leftovers after school

She asked for recipe help. Do you think this is the kind of post that needs to be monitored closely?

Carnitas is a family favorite. Spice rub, pork shoulder, lime juice. Cook all day. Shred and broil if you want crispy. We make mango slaw for the side and put out tortillas etc

My family like chicken tortilla soup made in the slow cooker. https://www.thepioneerwoman.com/food-cooking/recipes/a82077/slow-cooker-chicken-tortilla-soup/

I serve with rice (microwave packet), tortilla chips, sour cream and shredded cheese.
