70 Crock Pot Recipes!!

There’s no denying it, my Crock Pot plays hero around here often, especially this time of year.  On the days I work from home, I load that baby up and let things steep while I get things done.  It’s amazing, it works while I work!  But, it’s the days I’m gone that it really seems to save me.  Those crazy mornings when I’m rushing frantically to work, comb in one hand spastically shuffling through my hair, random shoe in the other, fighting me as I try to get it on, wobbling out the door in full tornado form… it’s those mornings I really appreciate the thing.  It’s a true life-saver.  Others have those mornings too, right?  Please say yes.  I can’t be alone in this.  The lone cooking spaz!?  😮

Those moments- when I quickly chop, throw things in, and then let it do all the work for me- are what make the Crock Pot such a gem.  It’s like having a mini-me.  A little kitchen helper.  I leave, then come home from the day and boom, dinner is done.  And not just done, but done in a way that fills every corner of my house with the smell of happiness- a scent that only comes from cooking hours on end.  It’s instant food heaven.  A land where only eating and happiness matter.  My favorite place.  

Of course, some of you may be something I hear is called organized, where apparently planning  ahead and prepping happen well before the actual minute of cooking.  I don’t know that world well, but if you do, you probably don’t have flying shoes and hair brushes whipping across your rooms in the mornings.  And I envy that.  I’m working on getting there; until then, my spastic little routine works, all thanks to my handy dandy Crock Pot.  My favorite dinner hero.  {I have a regular ol’ 4 qt ‘Crock Pot’ guy, like this one.}

Whether you’re a planner or an often disheveled spaz like me, I’ve got your Crock Pot needs covered with the roundup of 70 recipes!  Some are Paleo, some are Primal… all are made with trusty real foods, so you can feel good about what you’re eating and enjoy it too!  Some of my dearest blogger friends have contributed their favorite Crock Pot recipes here… we’re hoping you find some to enjoy in your home too!  ♥
