12 foolproof crockpot dump recipes
Baked ziti
You just put pasta, sauce, ricotta, and mozzarella in your crockpot and let it do all the work, which can take as little as an hour on high.
Beef & broccoli
Beef broth, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and garlic go into your crockpot along with thinly sliced chuck roast. Add the broccoli and stir in a mixture of cornstarch
Beef brisket
It only requires five ingredients: brisket, dry onion soup mix, garlic powder, brown sugar, and chili sauce. After 8-10 hours on low, all that’s left to do is shred or slice the beef!
Carrot ginger soup
You’ll need to use an immersion blender and add the cream before serving this carrot ginger soup, but that’s at least 3 hours after dumping all the other ingredients in your crockpot
Cheesy spinach tortellini
For this meal, all you need to do is chuck your tortellini in the pot; add your sauce, water, spinach, and mozzarella; and cook on high for about an hour.
Chicken & shrimp gumbo
Start by putting chicken, red peppers, tomato, onion, celery, and spices in your slow cooker. Then just set it on low for six hours, and kick back.
