Tired of slow cooker recipes yet? Nope, me neither! This one was from Half Baked Harvest and if you like curry flavor, it’s absolutely delicious. I splurged for all the garnishes for this one (a rare occurrence!), and it made a huge impact on the flavor of the dish. The coconut milk + red curry paste sauce…

Slow Cooker Ratatouille
Ratatouille is like the ultimate summer harvest meal. It reminds me of France in June and that cute Disney movie, and is like health and vitality in a bowl. There is so much to love about ratatouille, which is why I wanted to find an easy way to make it during the busy and dark…
Slow Cooker Black Bean Tortilla Soup
This is the winter of soups for me! I have been working on developing so many different soups that can be made in the slow cooker and ready as soon as we walk in the door for those cold winter nights . It feels like you can’t really call yourself a real cook until you’ve…
Easy Three Bean Chili
Slow Cooker to the rescue! That should be my new mantra. I seriously love this amazing appliance. I love that the apartment smells wonderful when I get home from work, I love that I have a hot cooked meal on the table in just minutes, and I love that it’s a VERY easy clean up!…
Slow Cooker Lentil Soup
This might be the PERFECT slow cooker lentil soup recipe. I kid you not. It is so rich and flavorful, and so simple to make. I bought the “Greens for Soup” from the grocery store (Celery, Carrots, Leeks, Onions, Turnips & Parsnips) – this is a super great tip if you don’t mind spending $1-2…
Slow Cooker Hearty Pasta and Bean Stew
For me the slow cooker is always an experiment. I put a bunch of things in, turn it on for a few hours, and I never quite know what I’m going to get. This time I tried to make my mom’s minestrone soup, but I think the macaroni I used was too big or I…
Sweet Potato White Bean Chili
Life of an imperfect vegan: that moment when your gas is turned off in your apartment and you can’t use your stove or oven for days. How am I supposed to cook and blog when I have no stove or oven? I don’t even have a microwave! All week I felt so annoyed and so…
Slow Cooker Bean Chili
Sometimes hubby and I have busy weeks, full of after hours work responsibilities and/or social plans. Many times our schedules oppose each others’ and there are weeks that we don’t eat dinner together at all. Those weeks can easily mean back-to-back takeout or fast food for dinner, but due to the costs of those options…
Slow Cooker Sweet Potatoes and Cardamom Rice
I must confess that I don’t watch “This Is Us”, so I am still wholeheartedly a fan of the slow cooker and all of its glory. While it is mostly hailed for its tender-meat-cooking abilities, the slow cooker also has its way with vegetables, especially the heartier squashes and potatoes. Last night I decided to…
