Crockpot Recipes Aren’t Worth It

Well, some aren’t worth it.


The other day, a friend sent me a recipe and asked me what I thought. The pictures were gorgeous, and at first glance, I thought it was good to go.


And then I read the recipe. It was a crockpot stir-fry recipe. There’s no need to make a stir fry in the crockpot. By nature, these are quick meals. There’s no benefit to making this in the crockpot.


Always read the recipe before placing it in your meal plans. If you need some tips, check out how to tell if a recipe is good. My friend was seeking quick dinners. Just because you are short on time doesn’t mean dinner has to be takeout. Check out these 20-minute meals that will be on the table before Uber Eats could arrive.

Here’s what’s cooking this week:

WEDNESDAY

Pork Stir Fry, Bachan Sauce, Ramen Noodles

THURSDAY

Big Mac Salad

FRIDAY

Wings, Mac and Cheese, Carrots, and Celery


SATURDAY

Enchiladas

SUNDAY

Eggplant Parmesan, Salad, Bread Sticks


MONDAY

Chicken Cutlets, Chickpea, Date, Avocado Salad


TUESDAY

Breakfast For Dinner

Waffles, Bacon, Fruit

That’s all for now. As always, connect with me on Facebook or Pinterest or reply to this email; I'd love to hear from you.

See you next week!
