Polar opposites collide in January with delicious results. We’re all trying to eat a little better, maybe save on groceries, or get a little better at meal planning while also still craving the cozy comforts of warm bowls of soup, slow-cooked meals, and maybe a creamy dessert or two. There’s absolutely no doubt about it: slow cookers and soups ruled your saves this month. Here are the top 10 most-saved recipes of January 2018.

No surprise that this Whole30-friendly breakfast-lunch-dinner option makes January’s top 10 list. This incredibly easy recipe can only be made better with a sunny-side-up egg.

Long live cabbage rolls. If one of your goals is to eat more vegetables this year, this slow cooker recipe is a wonderful place to start.

This hearty slow cooker chili is a little lighter than its beef brethren. It’s packed with plenty of vegetables (thanks, frozen corn and canned chiles) and simmers slowly in the Crock-Pot. It’s definitely a game-day crowd-pleaser — hint, hint.

Here’s where this recipe keeps your resolutions in check — whether you’re try to save money, eat in more, order in less, or you just need to use up all those oranges you got at the grocery store, you can do all that in one slow cooker.

Have you seen this recipe yet? It’s basically everything you could possibly want in creamy comfort food in just one pan. It’s a perfect Monday night meal, if you ask me.

I’m a little heart-eyes for this comfort classic too. Traditional chicken and dumplings can take all day at the stove, but this slow cooker version is equal parts easy and delectable.

This is my personal most-cooked recipe from January — I put it on our family meal plan not once, but twice! Flavorful and family friendly — it freezes well too!

This recipe is for all you parents out there trying to get your kids to eat more veggies! Partnering is one of my favorite ways to get kids to try and love vegetables. Here, pasta and broccoli come to the table hand in hand with a lovely lemon sauce everyone loves.

Of course you want broccoli cheddar soup from the slow cooker — Ree knows this! This recipe combines comfort food with the ease of the slow cooker for this classic soup we know and love.

Cheesecake from the slow cooker is brilliant, as the former requires low and slow heat and the latter all but guarantees that! While it might be surprising as a favorite recipe from January — the month we see more smoothies and gym memberships than any other — the fact that we’re all saving it for later means we can admire it now but bake it later.
