It’s Back to School month at My Plant-Based Family! This month we are focusing on packing lunch boxes, easy dinner time meals and getting ready for school. Make sure you check out my Back to School Community Board on Pinterest for more ideas.
I’ll be talking about lunch packing throughout the month (I’m also sharing my son’s lunch boxes on Instagram). Today my focus in on easy dinners, specifically Crock Pot dinners! My kindergartener starts baseball this week so it will be great to have an easy dinner planned.
I love my Crock Pot! I wish I had two but I don’t really have room for another one. I love cooking in it though. Many of my recipes are designed specifically for the Crock Pot but that doesn’t stop me from making my normal stove to recipes in it too.
Plant-Based Crock Pot Dinners
Tomato Soup with a side salad and toast
Easy Crock Pot Broccoli and Rice Casserole, this is my husbands favorite recipe!
Taco Soup with Baked Potatoes
Spaghetti Squash with Marinara and a side salad
Pinto Beans in the Crock Pot to use in Bean Burritos or Bean and Potato Burritos.
These meals assure us a delicious homemade dinner no matter how busy we get. Another way to save time is though batch cooking. I hope you read last weeks Batch Cooking Meal Plan for additional time savers and meal ideas.

Oh I need to start doing this again. I still make weekly menu’s but haven’t posted them in a long time.
I love my crock pot too but my husband works outside all day and doesn’t like soups and such during the summer. I try to do cool salads and grilled stuff till the weather cools.. which here in FL can be awhile.
All your meals sound delicious!!
Blessings

I’d love to see your Meal Plans! I love seeing what people are eating. 🙂
It’s really hot here but since it doesn’t heat up my kitchen it’s a welcome trade off.
