Cook while you sleep?? 😴

It's great to wake up to a prepared dinner 😂

I discovered this trick a few years ago when our big boys were home, in sports, and we traveled a lot for games on the weekends. I needed hearty food for them to eat between games and sandwiches were getting old.

On a whim, I put a roast in the crock pot before bed one night to take with us the next day to a tournament. BRILLIANT. It worked so well I pretty much always make it like this now. Though we aren't heading to tournaments right now (can you imagine?!).

But when a roast is cooked low and slow like this, the meat will fall apart and can be perfectly ready to eat after church on Sunday with no effort. Or sure, if you're normal and start it in the morning early, it's ready at dinnertime that night. 😋

Overnight Saucy Crock Pot Chicken(this works great too!)

Equally important to mention: If you cook potatoes in a crock pot like this, you can have Mashed Potatoes ready to eat with your roast or chicken.

Wow, Laura, how many crock pots do you have anyway? Four, thank you.

Another overnight recipe

Here's another idea: Mix up this Waffle Batter in the evening while you're making dinner or before heading to bed. In the morning, make waffles. EASY!

Hopefully you're also sleeping overnight,
