I use my crockpot at least once a week and whatever I create in that lasts us a few days for dinner, reheated in the microwave. I'm planning lighter meals too, because it's so darned hot, and trying to avoid using the oven. We grill stuff too. And when I do cook, I almost always make plenty so we can eat it for a few days and only have to cook every few days.
