Easy Dinner Meals

[DaisyJ]

For those of you that crockpot-how do you manage it? I leave home around 6:45 am and get home around 6:30 pm. Everytime I've tried to crockpot something it's ruined when I get to it. Any suggestions?

Yeah, that was a problem I ran into, too. So I had to stop using my crockpot, because having supper ready at 3pm wasn't working so well.

Cooking all meat on the weekend is a huge help. Easy to pull together a salad or side as the meat is heating up on weeknights.

I find that cooking or even preparing whole meals in advance is also a good way of handling portion control. Just package the food is the portions you plan on using.
