I love using my slow cooker, but I can be guilty of thinking of it as a fall and winter appliance, which I know is not the case! So, in an effort to spend more time at the pool and less time cooking, I decided to hunt for delicious summertime recipes that could be made in the slow cooker. And, per usual, I turned to Pinterest. I started by looking for yummy tried-and-true recipes with great ratings that could be in my summer lineup.
After spending more time than I’d like to admit, I came up with 14 of the best summer slow cooker recipes. I have a little of everything on my list. There are main dishes, desserts, side dishes and even appetizers for all of those cookouts you are invited to. So check out the list and get cooking!
