Definitions of healthy eating have changed quite dramatically since The Healthy Slow Cooker was first published in 2006. In those days, it was one size fits all — low fat, low calorie and no saturated fat. Since then, there’s been a shift in thinking. Many leading experts now feel that many of our modern diseases are directly associated with the consumption of wheat and advocate reducing carbohydrates. Another significant development is that the evidence against saturated fat has been gradually diminishing. All the recipes are delicious, nutrient-dense and have a balanced approach that will suit a wide variety of people. Incredibly healthy meals prepared in a slow cooker is an unbeatable combination!

Chapters in this cookbook include:

• Breakfast
• Starters and Snacks
• Soups
• Poultry
• Fish and Seafood
• Beef and Veal
• Pork and Lamb
• Vegetarian Mains
• Sides and Sauces
• Desserts

The recipes in this cookbook are very clear and easy to follow. Recipes contain prep and cooking tips, and variations. The cookbook also contains lots of information on gluten, and the gluten-free diet. It also contains information on ingredients, and what makes them what they are. There are a good amount of color photos scattered throughout the book, although many are of ingredients and not the dishes. I am hoping in a future edition they might add some more photos of the dishes, I find it so helpful in deciding what to make and when making it. Finding gluten-free recipes can be challenging, especially for those new to the condition. This cookbook would certainly be helpful to anyone just learning to cook gluten-free. It would also be great for those familiar with the diet, as it seems we are always looking for new and improved recipes to try.
