Cookbook Volume 4: Real Food Slow Cooker Favorites - PRINT

Please note: This cookbook is for preorder! Orders will be shipping in September. 

My slow cooker has absolutely revolutionized my kitchen. The ability to start your dinner in the morning and do all the prep and clean up right then so that when dinner time comes around, your kitchen is clean and dinner is DONE? Game changer! 

But I'm always amazed at how many women I talk to don't even own a slow cooker! Or they assume a slow cooker doesn't have much of a place in a healthy kitchen because so many slow cooker recipes out there are full of processed foods. 

So in my cookbook series, Finding Joy in Your Kitchen, it became apparent that a slow cooker cookbook was a must. In these all brand new recipes, you'll learn how to best utilize a slow cooker, tips & tricks for it turning out perfect every time, and you'll learn how to make breakfast, sides, dinner, and even desserts in your slow cooker. 

No matter your experience level with a slow cooker, you'll find everything you need to make healthy, non-processed, delicious, and SIMPLE family favorite recipes! 

In addition to all the regular slow cooker recipes you would expect like minestrone soup, stews, chicken noodle soup, and pulled pork, you will also learn all the other fun ways you can use a slow cooker such as: 

• Making banana bread 
• Chocolate chip scones
• French toast
• Corn on the cob
• Lasagna
• And sooo much more!! 

Table of Contents: 

This brand new cookbook contains 87 real food, healthy recipes for your family cross 4 different categories: Breakfast, sides, dinner, and desserts! You will have all the recipes you need to cook slow cooker meals all year long. 

What makes these recipes healthy? 

I'm a busy homeschool mom of 8 kids who wants to prioritize healthy eating for my family without breaking the bank and also providing delicious food for my family...and I can't spend my entire day in the kitchen either. 

Enter: Real food slow cooker meals! In this cookbook you will find down to earth, easy recipes for your family made out of real food. So you won't find a whole bunch of fancy or exotic ingredients. But neither will you find canned cream of mushroom soups, boxed cake mixes or other processed foods. 

My goal with these recipes was to help you get real food on your table in an easy way! Throughout the cookbook I give you many tips to save time or make food even healthier. For example, you'll easily be able to used canned beans in many recipes if you need to save some time, but you'll also be given instructions if you want to make your own dried beans to save money and make them a bit healthier. 

A few recipes contain bread: i.e. french toast! You can easily use any store-bought bread you want while focusing on the other real food ingredients OR make your own homemade bread for the ultimate health! 

There are so many examples of this throughout the cookbook that allows you to really tailor the cookbook to how your family eats, our budget, and your time! Here's what's inside: 

Breakfast Recipes: This is such a fun section! There are so many different kinds of breakfast recipes you can make (many of which we LOVE to have for dinner). Some of our family favorites include: breakfast burrito bowls, slow cooker granola, blueberry french toast, and the Mexican breakfast casserole. 

Side Recipes: One of my most common ways to use my slow cooker is for making sides to dinner or lunches. The slow cooker makes it so easy! A few of our favorites include: corn on the cob, mashed potatoes, bone broth, herbed rice and applesauce! 

Dinner recipes: If there's one place your slow cooker can revolutionize your life, it's with dinner recipes! So simple, so quick, and clean up is a breeze. We have way too many family favorites to choose, but a few of them include: Chicken enchiladas, from scratch mac & cheese, Salsa chicken with black beans, lasagna soup, and homemade meatballs! 

Dessert Recipes: When I set out to make this cookbook, I knew I needed to beef up my folder of dessert slow cooker recipes. I really only had a couple I would make and didn't think of my slow cooker much for desserts. So I really threw myself into recipe testing and development for desserts over this past year and now we have 18 incredible slow cooker dessert recipes! Some of our favorites include: Turtle brownie pie, brown sugar cheesecake, pumpkin spice cake, and the baked apples.
