This was great! Not many people seem to cook small portion meals which is exactly what I need, so thank you!

[@rachelresets]

Thank you! I plan on continuing to make more videos like this. 🥰 I'm so glad you're enjoying the one person meals!

[@stacel1972]

Great idea to use the dish as a double boiler “ish”. I had never thought to stack in my slow cooker. I love the single meal ideas. Thank you!

[@rachelresets]

Thank you! I plan on continuing to make more 1 person meal plans 🥰 I'm so glad you're enjoying them!

[@bettyir4302]

Cool, who knew about putting small containers into the crock pot!?! The drained spinach liquid works well as the liquid in egg crepes. No flour. Just stirred up eggs and half as much spinach liquid as the eggs.

[@emily--m]

Hello Rachel - here you go again blowing my mind with your one serving meals. You truly have a gift and thank for sharing. Also I didn't know you could add bowls to the crockpots while cooking. Brilliant tip!!!! Have a blessed and beautiful day 🥰

[@rachelresets]

You're welcome, Emily! I was feeling in a fall mood making all these crockpot meals. 😉 Glad to pass along the knowledge and recipes! Thanks for the encouragement- I hope you're having a fantastic weekend! 🥰

[@nodrogytsirk]

New subscriber….love your Chanel! I’m a single who has just retired and can now start thinking about spending time cooking meals from scratch. Can you do meals for one with beef or hamburger or pork chops? Where I live chicken is crazy expensive, seems crazy but I’ve also realized that buying a precooked chicken is actually cheaper than buying parts! How ridiculous is that?

[@rachelresets]

I will add that to the "to make" list 😉 Thanks for the idea!

[@robinholbrook8296]

You are so welcome! 🥰 I'm glad to hear the recipes and budget meals are helpful!

[@debbieflaherty1975]

Thank you for sharing. To clean stove parts, put them in a plastic bag (trash bag), spray with oven cleaner, close bag and let sit. After it sits for a bit, pull out the parts and use a scrubber to clean. I’ve had some parts just wipe clean….and some I had to use an SOS pad on, but I found trash bag method the most effective. This works on oven racks as well!

[@mr29]

I think I am going to double these recipes and put them in my regular slow cooker. They look delicious!

[@rachelresets]

Thank you! I hope you enjoy them! 🥰

[@donnadkshad6213]

Another way I like to save money and time is shopping at ethnic stores and batch cooking rice so I have it ready. I am plant based but love the idea of using my small slow cooker to make meals. I love buying spices at the ethnic stores because I get a massive amount for pennies per ounce.

[@rachelresets]

Most definitely! That is a great tip! Thank you for sharing! 😊

[@JoyfullyOrangeDeborah]

I don't cook for one but I know a few who do and i will look for small slow cookers to gift with notes from this video. I'm new to your channel & subscribed just bc of this. Many Blessings from Deborah in West Virginia!

[@rachelresets]

Thank you, Deborah! I appreciate it! 🥰

[@lifewithroscoe6513]

Awesome! I live in a tiny house on wheels. I use a 2 qt and 4 qt slow cookers for most of my meals. You gave me lots of ideas.

[@rachelresets]

That is awesome! I love watching documentaries on tiny house living. Glad the recipes are helpful! 🥰

[@lifewithroscoe6513]

The space has everything one would need. I even have a small wood stove for the winter time. Only have one issue. No room for my train collection. So it was "donated" to my son in-law. Only other issue is meeting someone who has a huge shoe collection. I'm like, how can someone have like 80 pairs of shoes????@@rachelresets

[@charlottetooth1457]

To crisp up the skin on the chicken in the first dish, you could have popped it under the broiler for a few minutes.

[@amumof2347]

In place of anything where you're using just plain water, you could always use a veggie broth, chicken broth, or beef broth. It may add some depth to the flavor

[@allyrooh3628]

My favorite thing to get out of a video is new information. Learning how to use the big crock for one servings is important info. Yeah. Our evenings are getting pretty. It's beautiful to see the beginning of the leaves changing. Always happy to see your vids pop up.

[@rachelresets]

I am so glad that tip was helpful - I love learning new things as well, or by experimenting and trying ideas as they pop into my head. Adding a little bowl to steam the brocolli was an idea I decided to try this time around and was happy when it worked 😅

[@ondreaholland5282]

🎉 yeah, now I can use the double pack 2 quart mini slow cookers I bought today. Saving me some time on Meal prep Sunday

These look great!!! What a fantastic trick with the bowl in the crockpot to steam the broccoli-love it!!!

[@rachelresets]

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed that trick and the video! 🥰

[@denewf]

I have like 10 slow cookers of all different sizes, some of these recipes I feel like I should have thought of them myself bahahaha... But yes, more single slow cooker meal ideas.. I have a bunch of fix-it-and-forget-it books which are fabulous and a pretty decent cook if I say so myself. I try and scale back on how much I cook unless it's something we absolutely love because we struggle eating leftovers. Even the ideas are great :) I pressure can our meat etc for the most part so a lot of stuff we have on hand and precooked

[@claudinecarreiro9494]

Thank you so much for these recipes. I live alone, and don’t want to cook big meals, because I don’t want to eat a meal over and over again. I only have a regular sized fridge, and the freezer isn’t that big. So cooking this way will be great. Thank you 😊 If you can think of any other meals with different ingredients, I will definitely be wat hing out for them.

[@jillgott6567]

Ì have two slow cookers one is 1.5 quart size and the other is much larger. I enjoy using them for soups but plan on doing more with them this winter. I cook just for myself so I like watching your videos for meal ideas.

[@rachelresets]

[@deborahelliott8460]

Your first meal looks totally delicious! I actually got this smaller crock pot for cooking in a hotel room. It kept my food budget lower than going out to eat a lot.

[@rachelresets]

That is awesome! Great idea to save some money while at a hotel 🥰

[@rachelhero3413]

These all look tremendous! I hate that I just recently found out I’m diabetic and have to really avoid starches as much as possible! Could you do a low carb/ low fat budget video?

[@rachelresets]

I will add that to the list of videos to make. I've done 1 that was low carb but I need to make another one soon. Here's the one I've done already: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a56qdX6OZtCMo9Esi=7wCHyiWQxkv1VBmJ Thanks for the great suggestion! 🥰

Thank you some great meals for a low budget It is getting colder in U.K. so I will be getting my crock pot out .xx

[@carolynmoody9460]

❤ I also us a toaster oven when I cook or bake for 1 or 2 it soooo much cheaper than turning on a large oven.. definitely saves $$$

[@rachelresets]

I love using the toaster oven for baking! I learned how to bake in a toaster oven in my teens. My mom preferred me to use the toaster oven over the big oven because I grew up in the Philippines so with how hot it was already, having an oven going would make it even hotter. It helped me learn a lot of tricks as I would bake in several batches and tweak the recipe while I waited for one small pan to bake at a time. 🥰

[@Heather-dt2ot]

I'm so thrilled to see this video; I've had a mini slow cooker for years but have never used it because the included cookbook was missing from the box when I bought it.

[@dee2086]

Once again, so wowed by your creativity here! And I love anything "mini" so the mini crockpot and using the glass ramekin down in it to steam the broccoli, I was hooked 😊 Would love to see a dessert for one ❤

[@rachelresets]

I was literally just pondering doing something like that today while at Dollar Tree and seeing all of their cookie mixes 😋 I love mini things and have since I was little. I still remember receiving a little diary that was only about 2 inches big and it quickly became one of my favorite things as a preteen. Thanks for sharing and for the encouragement to start on the dessert for 1 idea! 😉

[@Cooking-for-one]

[@sammof7939]

[@rachelresets]

I'm so glad to hear you're enjoying rhe recipes! I hope you're having a wonderful Thanksgiving! 💛

[@MichaelRyanNewell]

This is absolutely fascinating! I just started the mini slow cooker meals. It seems like something every college student or young person living in an apartment should have. For example, to heat a soup, you just pour the soup can’s contents inside the mini slow cooker. To microwave soup, you need a separate bowl, a cover, and a microwave. I don’t know why Walmart and Target are not selling these all over the USA. 🇺🇸 Maybe I’m missing something here?

[@dstock5890]

Very nice and using all of these ingredients up! Love it!

[@rachelresets]

Thank you! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it! Sometimes using everything up is a challenge, but I know it helps us to not have a small bit of something that we have no plans on how to use leftover. I love when everything all comes together and not having any that might go to waste really helps our budget out. Thanks for the kind comment! 😊 I hope you have a wonderful weekend! 💛

This video is how I found you a while back....brilliant tips herein and mind was blown to find meals for one on a budget, in a crock pot. Yes I call them all crock pot too, that is how I was raised. My mom was a single mom and used it alot. Ive been going back and watching all your other vids. You are def creative and so helpful in your tips.....Hey you mention how you look in your cupboards and make a meal plan...I am so trying to learn this habit. But what a great idea that would make for a series of videos...."How to use it up'' like canned spinach, dry beans, onions & other produce before it goes bad, canned chicken, mixes like Red Lobster cheddar bay biscuit mix...i have that and was thinking wondering if i could make something besides the biscuits...I realize you have touched on canned chicken, but there is always more. But this is where I am challenged. I like keeping canned spinach it is so much easier to use for me than frozen or fresh, but i challenge myself like that what all can i do with that can of spinach if I open it. Ive come up with some tasty meals. Used it in ways I would not have thought of before. Much like what you do here, but less organized...so I seek to learn from you.

[@kywifie]

Shoot forgot to tell you because i grew up with crock pots i have several and cookbooks and even an insert for one in which you can back a cake...yes you can do way more than people think. You can bake bread, you can roast, you can make baked potatoes, you can make spaghetti, you can cook without the lid etc. I have looked on pinterest yrs ago and mind was blown you can find any recipe for the ''slow cooker'' on there. God bless

Since I don’t always eat the way that my children eat, this is amazing! I did not know that you can put a food safe dish inside of a crockpot to cook for one! Didn’t question do you know if the 2 quart crockpot will actually cook food in the same way that a larger one does? I’ve seen the 2 quart crockpots, but it’s just a plug-in and forget there’s actually no Time that you can select and there’s no keep warm. It’s just literally plug-in and let go.

Hi Rachael, Where are the written recipes? Since being recently single, your recipes look fantastic, but impossible for me to keep looking back and forth for instructions. I would love to make these.

Unfortunately I've only verbally said the recipes in this video. I used to type out all the recipes and put them in the description box, but KZbin limits how many words you can put in the description box so I was spending a lot of time trying to shorten words just to make the recipes fit, and in videos with more than 3 meals presented it became impossible to put them there. I do plan on creating a website and will put the recipes there, but haven't been able to make enough time to do so yet.

These all look terrific! I have a couple of questions. How much water did you use in the recipe for the cheesy meatballs with sweet potato? Also, can a 2 quart slow cooker be used for these recipes, or is it too large? Thank you!

[@AnastaciaInCleveland]

Oops! You did say half a cup of chicken broth. I'm sorry that I missed that!

[@rachelresets]

No problem! 😉 I'm thinking a 2 quart should be fine as all of the meals filled the slow cooker enough that the base of a 2 quart should also be fully covered with food and won't run the risk of burning. If you try these, let me know how it goes in the 2 quart as that might be helpful for others that may also have a 2 quart slow cooker. Thanks for watching! 🥰

[@nancyculp6968]

I think if you had put most of your chicken in the slow cooker it would have been easier to take the meat off the bone and you are definitely sure the chicken is cooked. Plus, if you had baked the chicken first then place in slow cooker would give you a much deeper and richer broth. If you want to make everything in slow cooker, you could use a can( for small slow cooker use about 1/4-1/2), of biscuits cut into quarters with your seasoned broth along with a small portion of the cooked chicken, some finely diced onion, about 1/2 can of cream of chicken soup. I praise you for the chicken meatballs, but would have been better if you had cooked them all at once in oven, then use in slow cooker. Again gives better texture and taste. Also, a can of tomato soup can sometimes give you the same results in place of some tomato products. I used a can of tomato soup for lunch( 1- cup, after thinning with water), added dried basil, oregano, garlic salt, black pepper, onion powder…then added in some rice along with enough water to cook two cups of rice. I did mine on the stove top, but I think it would come out better in the oven. I added some green peas and corn, along with some chopped green onions. I will serve this with bean burritos and a guacamole salad. Then will take what is leftover of the rice and add in about 1/4 lb of cooked ground breakfast sausage to stuff some green bell peppers ( they are the cheapest), top each stuffed pepper with a piece of bacon to cover the rice. Bake in oven…I have heard of cooking them in a slow cooker too. If you cut the peppers from top to bottom will yield you two halves and more servings( these can be frozen, before or after cooking for another meal later on). So, look at what we just did…took a can of soup to make three meals, rice which is cheap, 1/4 of ground sausage and a slice of bacon( which, I cut small ends off of it while raw for seasoning or things like this in freezer). I love using the slow cooker, but I feel like I am eating boiled meat if it has not been seared off first. That is just me…I am all about texture. I have tried these box stuffing mixes and they do not have the same wonderful taste as homemade. Though if you had made a brown gravy from the essence and partials from meatballs in cooking process and poured over some of them and served with stuffing would have given you a hint of Thanksgiving. Try making a homemade Parmesan & roasted garlic sauce or maple sauce to pour over the chicken meatballs…There was just too much tomato products in the meals, where everything would taste alike to me. I know it was to save money, but that is where cooking a lot of things from scratch gives more variety and flavor.

That is a wize tip, Nancy. I will work on searing my meats next crock pot video - you are right, that would add a nice texture and lock in the flavor. Thanks for sharing the tip! 🥰

Nice ideas but I don't want the extra dishes from the oven for something going in the crockpot anyway. If I want to use something browned as an ingredient, I use the little 2 qt insta pot wannabe 1st on brown/sear, then on slow cooker setting. Because of the versatility, I've thought about donating my little crockpots but nope - mine!! LOL

Would these work in a large croc pot ?.

Holy cow

Do you happen to have printed recipes for all these kinds of meals? Even if it was in this it could be copy and paste into a document to be printed out

[@rachelresets]

Unfortunately I've only verbally said the recipes in this video. I used to type out all the recipes and put them in the description box, but KZbin limits how many words you can put in the description box so I was spending a lot of time trying to shorten words just to make the recipes fit, and in videos with more than 3 meals presented it became impossible to put them there. I do plan on creating a website and will put the recipes there, but haven't been able to make enough time to do so yet. Sorry I don't have printable versions yet, but thank you for your patience as I work at finding a good place and way to post the recipes!

@@rachelresets ok thank you

[@lauriepolden6594]

Thank you I am so sick of cooking so much food and wasting it because I’m by myself my dog is getting too fat lol

[@eleasethomas3754]

I like your one pot meals for slow. I'm not too fond of the dressing. I hope you have some on here where you are not doing stuffing with with the slow cooker for one pot meals.

Use a chicken thigh instead of a leg. It fits in your pot easier.

Thank you!! 🥰

Where’s the onions? Celery

[@rachelresets]

Onions would have been a good addition. I used Onion powder instead of actual onions in this one, but you could certainly toss chopped onions in most of these dishes to make them even more flavorful. Thanks for watching! 🥰
