Slow Cooker Magic
By the end of the day most of us are tired and just want to relax. Thoughts about taking time to prepare a healthy, well-balanced meal may not sound appealing. If this is the case for you, I have your answer.
The Slow Cooker.
Reasons To Use A Slow Cooker (Crock pot)
1. Cooking is EASY. You literally layer your food, throw in some water, spices and push the start button. I start my crockpot in the morning before work and by the time I get home dinner is ready and waiting for me.
2. It's Healthy. Since you're cooking with water, recipes rarely call for any extra oils or fats. Place a lean protein with a few vigorous carbs from your ex-prescription list and WALLAH- dinner is served.
3. Clean up is Easy. Slow cookers and crockpots allow you to cook an entire family dinner in one dish. If you have a removable dish in your crockpot you can simply put in the sink for a good soak, wipe it and you've cleaned your dinner.
4. Saves TIME. This is a big one for me- when I cook with my crockpot I don't have to spend time stirring or watching the food to make sure it doesn't burn. There is no boiling or burning in a crockpot so I don't have to baby sit the food as it cooks.
I hope you enjoy!
