I’ll be the first to admit it…we’ve been bad lately. We’ve eaten out SO much and honestly, it’s gotten the best of us. I think so many times it just seems like it’s easier to just eat out or grab something to-go, but the truth is, it’s more expensive and WAY more unhealthy. Last week, I joined Camp Gladiator (psst let me know if you want to join, I’ll give you a referral!), attended a Young Living Live Your Passion rally, and realized that I needed to continue on self-care in order to be healthy and possibly grow our family later down the road. Eating out wasn’t going to be doing any favors for me- so we’ve stopped, cold turkey. Sure, we’ll go out occasionally, but I definitely won’t be picking up take out for a while. Instead, we’re pinning away at our favorite recipes, and I thought I’d put together a list of 20 Comforting Slow Cooker Recipes for all of our friends to enjoy!
There are some major benefits to slow cooker cooking, like less clean up (because we LOVE these slow cooker bags), and less time in the kitchen. Not only that, but you’re making a delicious meal for your family instead of buying take out! I also love that using a slow cooker means your food has been slowly cooking away all day and that means TONS. OF. FLAVOR.

I hope this roundup of slow cooker recipes does some good for your family as it is for ours. Eating healthier is so important, and we have to be extra diligent about it with the holidays coming up. Even eating one healthier meal will make a world of difference!
