21 Day Fix Recipes
What is so awesome about using a slow cooker, is you toss the ingredients in, first thing in the morning, set it to cook and leave. When you arrive home from a busy day at work, the house smells amazing and supper is ready.
Create a quick and easy side dish to pair with your main course and supper is served. It's also a great way to get kids involved in cooking because you assemble ingredients when the pot is cold so you don't have to worry about them burning themselves.
Plus I love using my slow cooker in the summer months, to help the house stay cooler, instead of having to run the oven as much.
I created a list of 21 Day Fix recipes that use pork, chicken, beef and more. So you can skim through and find a recipe that will fit you and your cravings perfectly. Click through to get the details for each recipe, but I did include the portion control container count to help you make an informed decision about which recipes as a good fit for you.
