When the weather starts getting chilly, I break out my slow cooker.
I'm sure I'm not alone in craving soup, stew, chili and pot roast as winter approaches. And there's nothing like a slow-cooked batch of spaghetti sauce with meatballs. One pot full makes enough to feed my family of five for at least 8 dinners.
There's nothing easier than getting dinner started in the morning, so that everyone comes home to the smell of a delicious slow-cooked meal--no matter how busy the day was. And since slow cookers come in a variety of shapes and sizes, everyone is bound to find one that's just right for their family. BONUS: some roaster ovens double as slow cookers, so you get double duty out of a single appliance. In fact, all my slow cooking is done in a roaster oven--I have four of them, ranging in size from a giant one that will hold a 20-lb (or more) turkey, to a small one that will do a meal-size batch of beef stew. Several times a week, at least one of them is busy in my kitchen!
