This weekend was more than a little exhausting and for numerous reasons too. So ,I was more than elated that I happened to have this recipe planned ahead for. Somewhere between the weather, family dropping in, and an injury for my four year old... I was in need of something rather hands free to cook up for dinner for more than my usual table setting.

These burgers are super easy to do and rather guilt free (especially if you used the Annie's cheese sauce packs in stead of the alternative.) Now, I'd never made a cheeseburger in a crock pot before, so I was more than little skeptical of what the outcome would be but as it turns out, it was pretty stellar!

Even as I was preparing the meat to go into the crock pot, my mom was asking me 'what is this for' and 'what is that for'... 'are these sloppy joes'. Nope! Well, not exactly. Though the the texture does end up being rather similar to that of a sloppy joe; being as the meat is held together with cheesy goodness rather than a tomato sauce...

This is exactly the sort of fun thing that happens when I cook from my pantry.

I make a set meal plan every week for breakfast, lunch, and dinners. But somehow... by the end of the week, plans have inevitably changed. After a few weeks I end up with a handful of odds and ends from meals that either never happened or were converted into something else for whatever reason.

At any rate, I had a full pound of burger meat in my freezer that needed to have something done with it, and no buns. I also had some egg roll wrappers that I had intended for another use, but somehow managed to remain sitting in my fridge. I also had two lonely slices of cooked reduced sodium bacon sitting aside as leftovers from breakfast.

What's a girl to do...?...
