Can you share some super easy and delicious crockpot recipes? I've been far too tired to cook dinner at night and think the crockpot could be my savior. We don't eat seafood but love veggies, chicken, and beef.

Chicken and dumplings: warning, I am a highly inexact cook
Let it go on low about 8 hrs or so. Once done, add 1 container sour cream and mix in. Then add dumplings.
For dumplings...
Google a good scratch recipe for drop biscuits (sorry, I'm just Southern to feel that storebough or bisquick biscuits don't cut the mustard) Make 1 recipe, add some herbs (fresh or dry) to the biscuit dough. Drop spoonwise on top of the crockpot chicken (don't sink 'em), put the lid back on, let it go on high for maybe 15-20 minutes or until the top of the biscuits look relatively cooked (dry and set, but not really browned). If scratch isn't your bag, just chuck in some premade biscuits, cover and cook until the tops look done.
Eet!
If you're into soup during the summer, here's one for taco soup:
Browned ground meat
1 can corn
1 can black beans
1 can red kidney beans
1 can rotel
1 packet taco seasoning
1 packet ranch dressing mix
Just throw it in the pot and let it simmer!
Roast:
any kind of roast you like
carrots
potatoes
2 packets lipton beefy onion soup mix
water to fill
this one takes a while, we usually start at night on low and let it go through mid afternoon the next day. add the carrots the next morning if you start overnight.
And ditto the 365 blog!!
We do this with chicken and add some sour cream toward the end of the cooking time! Yummy!
Oh I bet the sour cream makes it soooo good! I was sharing this recipe with my brother today and my mouth started watering talking about it!
