Don’t put away your Crock Pot just because summer is here! With busy days, lazy afternoons, and warm weather, the last thing that any of us want to do is turn on the oven or stand over a hot stove. Instead, these Easy Healthy Slow Cooker Recipes will get you in and out of the kitchen quickly — so that you can enjoy your vacation and take advantage of the season!

Crock Pot dinners are typically considered cold weather food, thanks to favorites like chili, soup, stew, and pot roast. But really, there’s no better time than summer to take advantage of your slow cooker! It keeps the kitchen cool and it allows you to spend your days outside, focused on your kids, or enjoying a quiet afternoon.

You’ll notice that I hand-picked dinners that especially taste good in warmer weather — like salads, sandwiches, and lettuce wraps — instead of heavier comfort food dishes. To make it really easy for you, I have compiled a FREE printable mini cookbook for you to download below, which includes all of the recipes and nutrition information for the 10 BEST EASY HEALTHY SLOW COOKER RECIPES FOR SUMMER!

Are you ready for a quick peek at the recipes? Here we go…
