Easy-Peasy Pineapple Ham Slow Cooker Dinner Idea

ham-pineapple-potatoes-carrots-slow-cooker

If you’re feeling rushed for time this week (who isn’t!?) and need a really quick meal to throw together for the family — I’ve got you covered! This is the easiest, simplest slow cooker ham recipe — ever. It isn’t even a recipe, just a few ingredients tossed into the crock pot and cooked until they’re melded perfectly together into a hearty comforting meal that the family will love!

It starts with one of my favorite things from the Freezer section at Walmart — pre-packaged Smoked Spiral Ham Slices & Pieces. A package of this is like having leftover ham — without all of the work! Yum! And they’re pretty cheap too. I always grab a couple when they’re in stock.

    YUM! I love stuff that I can just throw in my slow cooker and leave it until later. It makes life so much easier on days when I have a million and one things to do.

    OH YUM! I’ve never seen those ham packages, but I am going to look! In the freezer section, huh?

    Thanks for the recipe!

      Actually, now that I think about it, they’re in the middle section where the hams are — I guess that’s the cold foods section not the freezer section? I like to grab a few because it seems like they’re only in stock randomly!

      I use my slow cooker for everything :) Even whole hams! Thanks! I’m not so sure about the header but wanted a change, at least for the holidays. Someday I’ll decide what I really want it to look like!
