10 Pinterest Crock Pot Meals That Will Change Your Life
Pinch of Yu,

Pinterest does it again. Whether you are a college student pinching pennies, or a mom trying to keep everyone in your family alive, buying and using a crockpot is essential to both your well-being and sanity. I should also start by saying, that my mom is a ROCKSTAR when it comes to crock-potting, and she definitely passed down the love of crock-potting to me. Whether it's soup, an appetizer or main dish, she knows the best combinations that somehow fill the house with the sweet aroma. Another amazing thing about crockpots? The prep work is minimal. If you haven't hopped on the crockpot bandwagon, this article is bound to make you fall in love at first bite. Here are 10 Pinterest crockpot meals that will change your life.

1. Pulled Pork

Can you say YUM?? Pulled pork is one of my all time favorite Midwest meals. Add a yummy side of green beans or corn-on-the-cob and BAM, you have a meal fit for a king.

2. Chicken Wild Rice Soup

Just imagine the aroma of walking into your door after a long day in the classroom or office. This is ultimate comfort soup.

3. Hamburger Queso Dip

The ultimate Sunday football appetizer (or meal if you choose to indulge). Hamburger + salsa + cheese? Yes, please! Serve with tortilla chips or Doritos (if you feeling extra cheesy) and watch this dish go fast!

4. Chicken Fajitas

There are few things better than fajitas- but they take way too much prep work for people with busy lives. This recipe requires a little chopping, then BAM. Hours later you have deliciously seasoned chicken and veggies, so good you don't even need a tortilla.


5. Smothered Pork Chops

Not everyone likes pork chops, but if you do you'll love this recipe.

6. Chicken Tortilla Soup

This is probably one of my favorite soups in the history of ever. If you have leftovers, put it in a Ziploc freezer bag and freeze it until you want it! Just heat over the stove until hot! Don't forget to crunch up tortilla chips and add them in for extra crunch.

7. Parmesan Ranch Chex Mix

This recipe is both addicting and delicious. Plus, it lasts for such a time and is an awesome go-to snack to take with you anywhere.

8. Bacon-Wrapped Smokies

Anything wrapped in bacon is sure to be a success. This recipe makes an awesome appetizer, but let's be honest..it will probably end up being the main dish. What better way to spend a Sunday then watching football while munching on these!

9. Chicken Pot Pie


My mouth is watering just looking at this picture. Missing home? Or you family? This is bound to make that pain a little bit duller. Thanks Pinterest for giving us the ultimate comfort meal.


10. Monkey Bread


Did you say dessert in a crockpot? Heck yes. This recipe is so simple and so delicious. Whip it up when entertaining guests, or make it for an epic ladies night.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
