Because who doesn't like coming home after a long day (or not) to a house full of the wonderful aromas of a yummy dinner already made? Or, who doesn't like throwing your meal into a crockpot and then being able to carry on with your day (laundry, shopping, cleaning, entertaining your toddler) until it's time to serve up the grub? For me, by the time it's time to start cooking I'm usually seriously exhausted. Some days, even though I have my weekly meal plan and everything's on hand and ready to go, I just don't want to do it.
So, I've been scouring the Internet for new recipes, and came across some great ideas: set aside an afternoon or a day to prepare a couple week's or even a month's worth of meals. Hmmm. Definitely time saving down the road, and a way to save money - buy ingredients in bulk packs (like from Costco) and pick recipes that you can interchange the ingredients in. I like that!
Over the next while, I'm going to share and review some of the recipes I've found online. So, give me a show of hands - who likes to save time and money? I do, I do! Do you have a slow cooker? Yes? Awesome! No? Go out and get one right now!
