Easy Meals on a Time Crunch

I don't know about you but there are days where I come home from school absolutely drained! On those days the last thing I want to do is cook super. I have a few recipes that keep me fed on these days. They are quick, easy, and taste so good!

 

1. Cheese Dip

While this one is probably not the healthiest on my list, it is super easy and tastes so good! This can be completed in a few minutes as soon as you get home and typically makes enough for left overs!


Ingredients:

1lb Block of Velveeta Cheese

1lb of Ground Beef

1/2 bottle of Salsa

Dash of Milk


Directions:

1. Cook and ground up the pound of beef.

2. Slice the block of velveeta cheese and place in the crockpot.

3. Add dash of milk, 1/2 bottle of salsa, and cooked ground beef to the crockpot.

4. Let heat stirring occasionally until the mixture is heated and runny.

 

2. White Chicken Chili

I learned this one from my aunt and uncle while visiting them in England. This is another crockpot meal as you will quickly realize I love. It seems as though I am attracted to the easiest possible recipes and most often they are crockpot recipes.

4. Dump rotel, ranch dressing, cream cheese, and chicken broth into crockpot.

5. Cook covered until chicken is cooked.

4. Ham and Cheese Buns

Now these are not your regular ham and cheese buns. THESE ARE DELICIOUS! Every single person that has tried these has loved them and they are super easy to make. The best part is that you can prepare early and save in your freezer. These are also the best reheated meal I have had!

6. Take off foil and bake for 5 minutes.
