5 Crock Pot Recipes Every College Student MUST Make

College means a lot of things. Long days of homework, followed by late nights with your friends and sleep and nutrition being kicked to the side. While the "freshmen fifteen" are inevitable for most students, not many people talk about what happens after freshmen year. After you lose your meal plan and move off-campus, resorting to eating fast food and microwaveable meals is common. You don't have enough time to do everything – classwork, homework, organizations, internships, socializing – especially not cooking gourmet meals. You may not be Gordon Ramsey, but that doesn't mean that your kitchen should be a nightmare! Here are 5 quick, easy and affordable Crock Pot/Slow Cooker recipes that every college student should try.

1. Chicken Burrito Bowls

Because taco Tuesday should be EVERY day!

2. Pulled Pork

Perfect for every football watch party and a comfy night in!

3. Mac and Cheese

A combo that we have grown up with and will continue to love for years to come!

4. Teriyaki Chicken

If you make this for your visitors, I promise, they will be in awe!

5. Steak Fajitas
