The Healthy Slow Cooker Cookbook

Product Information

Recipes include familiar slow cooker staples as well as new ideas such as a veggie Lancashire hotpot, whole roast chicken cooked in cider and red Thai prawn noodles. While slow cookers are commonly associated with casseroles and large cuts of meat, this short book of 70 recipes shows there’s plenty of vegan ways to use one, too. Notorious for its soup- and stew-making abilities, the humble slow cooker is actually capable of much more than you might think. Sauces, such as ragus with chunky pork shoulder or spicy Tuscan sausage, are the book's standout recipes.
