Slow Cooker Freezer Meals

So I was cruising around Pintrest.com when I saw a post that talked about making three kinds of freezer crock pot meals that would total 6 dinners, all for about 3 hours of work time. I was excited to start! After checking out her website (mamaandbabylove.blogspot.com) I realized that the only thing that could make this cooking adventure easier was a shopping list. I went ahead and created one for my own use, but thought it might be helpful to post as well. Here is the link to her slow cooker freezer recipes http://mamaandbabylove.blogspot.com/2011/04/freezer-cooking-with-slow-cooker.html
