Description
Slow-cooked food is always easy and tasty but it can also be wholesome. Now, everyone's favourite set-and-forget device gets a healthy makeover with over dozens of recipes you'll want to cook again and again.
Packed with veg, using smart carbs and with lots of flexibility for when you need to cater for those with dietary restrictions, The Healthy Slow Cooker is a collection of favourite family-friendly food made healthy. It's not completely vegetarian, but is light on the meat, because we all need ways to get more veg on our plate.
With chapters covering Sunday Suppers, Weekday Dinners, Set and Forget, Soups, Curry Night and Saturday Night Specials, your slow cooker becomes the gateway to deliciously healthy dinners that don't sacrifice flavour.
