I love crockpot recipes because they’re so easy to make.  The thought of cooking dinner at 5pm feels impossible, but adding ingredients to the crockpot in the morning is doable.  I went through all of my crockpot recipes and pulled out that ones that are healthy and made with five ingredients or less.  A win-win!
15 Healthy Crockpot Recipes with Five Ingredients or Less

What do I consider healthy?

  • Recipes made with vegetables
  • Fresh meat and seasonings
  • Minimal amounts of processed foods

I’m fine with eating everything in moderation, but if I can feed my family healthier options that still taste great, everyone wins.

Chicken Freezer Crockpot MealsThese are all recipes that I’ve made myself so I know that they’re healthy and delicious – most of these are recipes that I make over and over again!  Enjoy, Friends.

15 Healthy Crockpot Recipes with Five Ingredients or Less

  1. Salsa Verde Chicken
  2. Cranberry Pork Roast
  3. Cool Ranch Shredded Chicken Tacos (I’m obsessed with this recipe)
  4. Ginger-Peach Chicken Thighs (you can add green beans the last 30 minutes of cooking for an easy side dish)
  5. Stuffed Peppers
  6. Pulled Pork
  7. Pot Roast with Carrots and Potatoes (three cheers for a one-pot meal!)
  8. Lemon Pepper Chicken from the time I froze six chicken crockpot dump recipes
  9. Lasagna Soup
  10. Chipotle Beef Roast with Carrots (my favorite)
  11. Kale and Chorizo Soup
  12. Ham and Pinto Bean Soup (so good and so easy)
  13. Lime Shredded Pork from my healthy freezer meal prep session
  14. Maple Pork Roast with Cinnamon Applesauce (from my eCookbook and shared for free below)
  15. Chicken Teriyaki from my Whole Foods post

Bonus Recipe: 4-Ingredient Stuffed Mini Peppers (one of my favorite easy recipes for the oven!)

If you’re extra motivated, you can prepare the recipes in plastic baggies and freeze them for later (freeze raw and cook later).  Since these recipes are made with so few ingredients, I could probably make all of them in about an hour.

Thank you so much for these recipes, I love how your recipes are easy, healthy and so delicious. I live alone and usually only cook when my kids come over for dinner once a week using my large crock pot, now I feel like it’s easy for me to plan for myself and eat healthy with so little effort. I even went to Target and bought a small crock pot to use for my smaller meals and love it! You have inspired me so much! Thank you again.

How long can you typically store these in the freezer? Also, do you only use fresh chicken or can you use chicken breasts that are already frozen and then re-freeze them?
