I love my slow cooker. It's great for lazy days just as it is great for busy work days as well. The convenience of throwing everything into a pot and letting it do all the work is so enticing. It's capable of churning out some pretty beautiful soups, stews, sauces, and side dishes with the help of some supporting veg and the right seasonings. Did you know that you could be missing an opportunity to add flavour to your dish? Throwing ingredients like onions, celery, or garlic into the slow cooker doesn't utilize them to their full potential.
Simple steps that will enhance your slow cooker meals and make everything taste that much better! HAPPY VEG
