We are a two-parent working family, and it is tough each week to come up with a menu-plan from Monday to Friday that will satisfy my two children, my husband, and I. We get stuck in a pattern with the same bucket of recipes each week, and everybody starts getting bored. Slow cooker ground beef recipes are terrific for school nights when we are all getting home late and there is little time to prepare a great meal. My slow cooker gives me the opportunity to throw in my ingredients in the morning, turn it on, and my meal is cooking all day while I am at work.

There are so many recipes to choose from that contain ground beef, including sloppy joes, meatloaf, tacos, and more. I appreciate new ideas that will break up the monotony of our meals. The slow cooker affords me the opportunity to be more efficient in having my meals ready at an appropriate time. It is hard to start cooking an entire meal when you are getting home on the late side and need to drive the kids around.

Ground beef recipes are popular ones in my family. My kids, like most kids, love meatloaf and tacos. We have not made sloppy joes in a while, and I am thinking this would be a good recipe to add to my meal plan. Sloppy joes was a staple in my house when I was growing up.

The ground beef recipes are also terrific to make ahead of time and freeze for a busy night when there will be little time to make a satisfying meal. Below are some slow cooker ground beef recipes for you to try out. My family enjoys variety and loves when I throw something new on the table.
