For a lot of people, the biggest barrier standing between them and a healthier diet is time—and we get it! When you’ve been in an office all day or running around after the kids, the thought of spending an hour (or more) in the kitchen can be a little daunting. On those nights, the temptation to order takeout or eat a frozen microwavable meal can be overwhelming, but this means sacrificing nutrients in favor of convenience.

What if you could throw all the ingredients for your dinner into a single pot, press a button, and then have a delicious and healthy meal ready and waiting come dinner time? One-pot meals, crockpot dinners, slow cooker feasts—whatever you want to call them—are a kitchen revolution. They’re a great way to ensure your family is getting all their daily nutrients with zero hassle. Plus, by adding a little protein-rich Tilapia into the mix, you’re sure to have a tasty and nutritious dinner that’ll ensure everyone goes to bed with full, happy bellies.
