45 Awesome Vacation Rental Meals that are easy & quick to make, or CrockPot meals that you can throw into a slow cooker. This is a great way to feed the whole family and save money on vacation.
Every year we go as a large family to Yellowstone. Last year we rented a house, so we could all stay together.
This also allows us to save money my making our own meals & not having to pay the high prices of the restaurants around Yellowstone. We love to save money on vacation, and this is just one way we do so.

We are planning to go to Yellowstone again this summer and to rent the same house. We will be making our own meals, but we want to make some different meals than last year, and we also want to make sure that we have really easy or Crockpot meals so we can spend less time in the kitchen and more time in the park!
Grab a slow cooker (this one is great, since the lid can be locked, making for less spills), or an Instant Pot (you can use the slow cooker function for any of these recipes).
