Do you throw these in the crock pot frozen? Or should I thaw them first?

Wow! This is great and so organized! Thank you! I’m trying it very soon! The weather is getting cold here very soon.

Wow! Thanks so much for these awesome ideas! How long do they generally last frozen? I’d like to prep all of these recipes in one day but obviously I won’t be able to eat them all in a week!

Thanks :)

with the crockpot lasagna, do you put the cottage cheese and mozzarella cheese in the freezer bag with everything else when freezing it?

Did I miss a part of these recipes? I don’t see any bottle or can sizes. For instance the Sweet and Sour Meatballs. How big a can of Pineapple and do you drain? How big a bag of Meatballs? How big is the Sweet and Sour sauce you are using? These type of things in a recipe are pretty helpful. Thanks

Wow, what a great resource for easy, time-saving crock pot meals. Pinned to bookmark and share!
