A slow cooker, also known as a Crock-Pot is a counter top electrical cooking appliance that is used for simmering, which requires maintaining a relatively low temperature allowing unattended cooking for many hours of pot roast, stews, soups, boiled dinners and other dishes, including dips, desserts and beverages. The low temperature of slow-cooking makes it almost impossible to burn food even if cooked too long. However, some meats and most vegetables will become nearly tasteless or "raggy" if overcooked. Food can be set to slow-cook before leaving for the day, and will be ready on return. Go easy on yourself with these delicious skinny slow cooker recipes for stews, soups, meat, salads and more.
