Healthy, delicious meals have never been easier! The slow cooker, pressure cooker, and Instant Pot® meet freezer cooking in this all-new, beautifully photographed, and rigorously tested cookbook.

It's dinnertime, and yet again, you're behind. The kids are cranky; the fridge is empty; the kitchen is a mess. Sound familiar? That was every night at the houses of popular bloggers and cookbook authors Polly Conner and Rachel Tiemeyer until they discovered freezer cooking. And once they realized that freezer meals could be made even easier with the hands-free magic of the Instant Pot or slow cooker, dinnertime drama became a thing of the past.

From Peanut Butter Cup Steel Cut Oats to Fiesta Lime Chicken Bowls to French Dip Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, every recipe is doable and made with recognizable, whole food ingredients. You'll learn how to prep and freeze bright, flavorful food that can be easily dropped in the slow cooker in the morning or quickly cooked in the Instant Pot after a long day. So, no matter what time crunch you're in, you're never more than a few minutes away from a hot, homemade meal.

Polly and Rachel have once again shown us that it's possible to gather around the table everyday with loved ones over a wholesome meal together.

75 slow cooker and instant pot freezer meals made from whole food ingredients by the founders of Thriving Home blog.

In their first book, From Freezer to Table, busy moms and bloggers Polly Conner and Rachel Tiemeyer shared their tips and tricks for freezer cooking basics along with 75 simple, family friendly (and freezer friendly) recipes that also manage to be delicious and combat the usual opinion of tasteless freezer food. Now in their second book, they are turning their attention to the slow cooker and instant pot because freezer cooking and those handy cooking appliances in most of our cabinets are a match made in heaven! While freezer cooking allows for you to prepare meals in advance and store it until you're ready, your crock pot or instant pot means you can whip up that tasty, filling, and healthy meal by simply dropping it in, setting the cook time, and forgetting it. With recipes for family favorites, along with freezer to cooker basics, useful meal prep tips to keep you on track, and meal plans for the busy weeknights, Polly and Rachel have once again shown us that it's possible to live a healthy, busy life and still have a wholesome, kid-friendly dinner on the table most weeknights.
