Dump Dinner freezer meals are the easiest way to stay one step ahead of your (always) hungry family!
Dump Dinners are the easiest of all the freezer meals because they require the very least amount of prep. No fancy cooking or chopping skills needed here! No weird ingredients that you can’t even pronounce. At the very most, you’ll have to stir up a simple marinade with ingredients you likely already have in your pantry. Seriously simple.
So simple, it’s highly likely you can do this while a toddler clings to your leg. You could probably even prepare these meals while you supervise step one of a two hundred step science fair project. We know for a fact you can get them into the freezer as you sip that coffee you left in the microwave for the third time.
We get it. Weeknights can be hectic, but dinnertime doesn’t have to be.
Below you will find Dump Dinner recipes for four different cooking methods: Slow Cooker, Instant Pot, Skillet, and Baked. Scroll through and find your favorites!
Slow Cooker Recipes
Yes, this is such a fabulous seasoning and it’s amazing with this easy, homemade sauce. Simple ingredients…loads of flavor! Easy prep for a delicious meal! Quite possibly the best slow cooker chicken ever. Seriously, ever. “Chicken, meet pizza. Pizza, meet chicken. Y’all should hang out in the slow cooker for awhile.” Giggle, this is an amazing slow cooker chicken with pizza sauce and pepperoni. This one is always a hit with my crew of boys! Hope you enjoy this budget friendly ‘meat and potatoes’ meal with your people!Dump Dinners - Slow Cooker Recipes

This is pulled pork heaven right here. Better than my favorite BBQ joint. I think it’s the sweet and tangy.
Instant Pot Best Shredded Chicken Tacos
These are seriously good, and the whole family will love them! This chicken is also delightful on salad greens too 🙂
Instant Pot Cuban Chicken
This Cuban style marinade is unique and delicious, and is perfect for slow cooked chicken. You could also cook this chicken and sauce in the Instant Pot, Dutch oven, or bake it in the oven. It is a versatile chicken and you will love it! Enjoy!

This herbed pork tenderloin will make your taste buds sing!
Instant Pot One-Pot Spaghetti
This one is a winner-winner-spaghetti-for-dinner. Spaghetti is always a favorite and if you’re wanting to move into “one-dish instant pot” meals, I’d recommend starting with this one.
Skillet Recipes

Orange Sesame Chicken
What a fabulous flavor profile for chicken. You can mix up this delicious sauce with some ingredients from your pantry and fridge. Pour it over the small chicken pieces and saute until cooked! Delicious over rice with green onion garnish!
Peppered Pork Chops
My oldest son hasn’t met a pork chop that he didn’t like. But when he tried these, he declared them #1 and they are now at the top of his list. The pepper is balanced with the brown sugar, and the Worcestershire has the more powerful flavor.
Pork Chop and Feta Skillet
Love how these pork chops marinate in the lemon-garlic sauce as they thaw.
Rosemary Garlic Pork Chops
Let these pork chops soak in the amazing flavors from the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, rosemary and basil. They will marinate in this amazing sauce while they thaw and then you can cook them to perfection in the skillet! Talk about a fast and delicious weeknight supper!
Skillet Pork Chops with Mushrooms and Pearled Onions
This is a fabulous, but simple and gourmet-like dinner. Perfect for the summer because it will not heat up your kitchen too much!
Baked Recipes
The sweet and tangy flavors go perfectly together on these pork chops! Mildly zesty and fresh Mexican-style topping over these pork chops make for a great and simple weeknight dinner. Teriyaki…plus lime…YUP! A little tangy, a little sweet - this chicken will rock your socks off. It's DELISH, a kid-pleaser and perfect with mashed potatoes and veggies. Or whatever your favorite chicken side dishes may be. Enjoy! Simple ingredients, complex flavor, easy prep!Dump Dinners - Baked Recipes
