25 Crock Pot Meals for the Sports Mom (or any busy parent)

Do you like a good “dump it and forget it” meal? With school and sports and all the things starting up again for the new year, I’m being jolted out of my lazy “let’s just wing it in the kitchen” method of meal planning that’s been my strategy over winter break. Crock pot meals are a busy parent’s salvation. This is a great and varied list – I hope you find a new fave.

Even though pandemic life (not to mention the horrible stuff on the news) is stressful, I am really making an effort to feed my family healthy and comforting meals for dinner. I’m not quite back into the groove of taking kids to school (my kids are in in-person school for now) and their different activities so having a list of no-brainers with easy ingredients is important.

I’ve prepared this handy list of awesome crock pot for the sports mom in the interest of giving my fellow minivan driving, sports equipment carting warriors a list of go-to’s that fill the bellies, taste great and get you out of the kitchen and on to the sports fields in record time. Crock pot meals offer a simple meal solution for busy families and with the fall routine getting ready to go into full blast mode, we all need easy, right?

No matter what your family’s taste buds, you’re sure to find several things on this list that will make your meal planning just a little easier.

I just bought the Instant Pot Slow Cooker. It was on the Amazon Treasure Truck for an incredible price, however it isn’t currently on sale. I’ve always wanted a “fancy” crock pot that does all kinds of cool things.

However, THIS one keeps calling my name as well. The “why” is a no-brainer. I know the pretty flowers aren’t going to make it function better…but I still really want it! Besides, I love the Pioneer Woman and in my alternate universe, she and I are best friends and have regular Zoom chats where we laugh about our kitchen disasters.
