Summary: Try one or more of these delicious and healthy slow cooker recipes this fall when you don’t have time to sit down and cook a meal.
If you’ve never used that Crock Pot sitting in your basement, now is the time to pull it out, dust it off, and put it to good use. And if you don’t have one yet, you can find them just about anywhere you’d buy food for less than fifty dollars. But why would you want to use a crock pot?
I know, it sounds like something your grandmother would love, but it has a lot of great qualities that will make your life so much easier. First off, it saves you a lot of time when it comes to cooking. Not only can you just throw in the ingredients and then leave it alone, but you can also make larger dishes and save the leftovers for meals later in the week. Also, you have much less of a chance of messing up the recipe. When all you have to do is put ingredients in a pot and turn it on, even the worst chefs can end up making something great. Last but not least, you get to enjoy the delicious smell of whatever meal you’re cooking throughout the day.
