I like to do a Boston Butt Pork Roast - all I add is a can of cream of mushroom soup. Let it cook on low all day while I’m at work. I do the potatoes carrots onion or whatever veggies you want when I get home from work in the broth from the roast. If I have time I do that in the crockpot - if not I put it in the oven. Once we eat on this for dinner I use the leftover roast 3 different ways. We make sandwiches, I use some and make bbq and some I use the packaged brown gravy mix and make opened faced roast sandwiches. Only 2 of us so a roast goes a long way and we don’t get as tired of it doing these different ways.

A layer of sweet onion on bottom of crock pot.
3-4 lb. corned beef w/spice packet, placed on top of sliced onions
Add a couple of bay leaves and some more dried dill
Add chicken broth, dark beer, or plain water aBout 1/4way up the corned beef.
Add small red potatoes
On low for 8 hours
At about an half hour before ready to serve, add some small carrots and/or cabbage.
Put meat on plate, let rest. Then slice. Use the juice from cooking as a dipping sauce or just pour over meat.
I like vinegar on my cabbage. Butter on the potatoes. Carrots by themselves.
And you have a “house candle” when you arrive home!

I like this website. You do all the prep up front for several recipes and freeze before cooking. Saves a ton of time and tastes fresher when you cook it.

Here are a few things I've learned about meal prepping this way:
‐I add better than bouillon to the bags (so I only have to add water on the day of cooking)
-I prefer to cook any ground meat before freezing (so I can drain the grease).
-I don't freeze potatoes (because they can discolor) or dairy (because I don't like the taste after it thaws). I just add them the day of cooking if they are part of the recipe.
-I bought baggy stands from Amazon, and they are a huge help!

Boneless pork chops, onions, mushrooms, can of cream of mushroom soup, can of French onion soup. Cook on low 4 to 6 hours.

Not quite hitting your mark other than super easy and yummy. Add chicken breast, a jar of salsa, a can of green chilies, black beans (rinsed), (and I used a can of cream of celery soup, but it could be omitted.) Cook on high until chicken ready to shred. Remove chicken to shred and add a block of cream cheese. Melt and stir together and serve.
