If you’re wondering what a dump dinner is, let me enlighten you. It’s a slow cooker or Crock-Pot recipe that only has one main step: dumping all of the ingredients in. These fuss-free dinners are perfect for hectic weeknights where the last thing you want to do is spend an hour cooking. You simply prep all of your ingredients, toss them into the slow cooker, and let the appliance do the work. While some dump dinners require an additional step or two (such as garnishing with fresh herbs or cheese at the end), the bulk of the work is done in the first step — so you can sit back and relax.

Oh, and the best part about dump dinners? For many recipes, you can get them started in the morning, go about your day, and come home to a hot dinner. You can also prep all of the ingredients and stash them in storage containers or zip-top bags until you’re ready to get cooking. So go ahead, bookmark a few of these recipes and save them for a busy weeknight. Your future self will thank you.
