10 Meals in 3 Hours

A couple things to note here:

• I make double of each recipe so that I have 10 total meals that serve a family of 4 normally. So 1 bag equals 1 meal for 2 adults and 2 children normally.
  
• I always taste the meal once it is cooked fully in the crockpot and add more seasonings as needed. Seasoning is a personal preference.
  
• I defrost the bag slightly and then put the frozen chunk into the crockpot and set it for 8 hours on low while I am working. My crockpot automatically goes to warm after that. I've never had any issues with food drying out.

3. I label my freezer bags with date, name, and directions.
4. I cut my veggies and place into bags. Any meats that need to be browned I prep at this time as well. Sometimes I do this step on a separate day, depending on how much time I have. Make sure to wash your veggies!
