Here are the easiest meals to make in a slow cooker or crock pot: two ingredient slow cooker recipes!\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n This\u00a0is one of the best tips I have, and it\u00a0requires so little cooking or skill, I’m almost<\/em> hesitant to share it here for fear you’ll take away my cooking license. The good news is that I don’t have a license. So.<\/p>\n Tell me if you can relate: Sometimes\u00a0I just don\u2019t have the time or the energy to create a delicious meal — even<\/em>\u00a0a meal in my\u00a0slow cooker, which yes, is the saving grace of sanity. Sometimes all I want, all I need in the world, is my own personal *Jamie Oliver.<\/p>\n *For strictly cooking purposes you guys! Obviously.<\/em><\/p>\n And when those times come calling, I reach into my back pocket for this tip. The two-ingredient slow cooker recipe. It saves my life, and I know that if you’re not using it, you should be! So here it is:\u00a0You can combine any meat (chicken, beef, pork) with just about any bottled sauce (a marinade, salsa, marinara…you name it) in your crock pot, and cook on low for 6 to 8\u00a0hours, and the resulting meat will be\u00a0nothing short of marvelous. It will taste just as good as some of the crock pot meals you take 15 minutes to put together!<\/p>\n Two ingredients, friends — one of which you didn\u2019t make yourself! And you don’t even have to use a sauce; you can use broth, too. Chicken, vegetable, or beef\u00a0broth\u00a0work really well\u00a0if you want to leave the flavor of the meat fairly\u00a0simple so that you can use it in\u00a0a variety of dishes throughout the week! An example: Combine boneless skinless chicken breasts with chicken broth in your slow cooker, cook on low until tender, shred the meat, then use\u00a0some of it\u00a0in chicken salad sandwiches for lunch, in chicken pot pie for dinner, and then add the rest to\u00a0enchiladas another night.<\/p>\n But play around! Chicken and salsa? It works. Pork and barbecue sauce? Pulled pork!\u00a0Ground beef and marinara? Don\u2019t make me say it again!<\/p>\n Use enough sauce just to cover the meat and let the mix slowly cook all day long. The finished product will be infused with the flavor of the sauce (a reason to use only sauces you love!) and\u00a0so tender it falls apart upon fork contact. Try it!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n What\u2019s your favorite slow cooker combination?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Here are the easiest meals to make in a slow cooker or crock pot: two ingredient slow cooker recipes!\u00a0 This\u00a0is …<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":13928,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1076],"tags":[227,994,677],"class_list":["post-11306","post","type-post","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-slow-cooker","tag-crock-pot","tag-how-to","tag-slow-cooker"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11306","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11306"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11306\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13928"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11306"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11306"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11306"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Two](\"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Fotolia_53318290_XS.jpg\")
