00Slow Cooked Tomato SoupThere's nothing nicer than a hearty bowl of soup on a cold day. Whether it's for lunch, dinner or just to warm you up after a brisk walk or a day at the footy. This Tomato soup is great because it can be prepped in 10 mins before leaving the house and be ready for you getting back in. It's great when you have a glut of tomatoes that need using from the reduced section, and not much else but, by adding a few store cupboard ingredients you have a filling bowl of goodness in no time. This recipe is easy to follow and can be easily adapted to suit your families tastes as I've given you a few options.

We love to hear your feedback x00Slow Cooked Roast PotatoesThe Slow Cooker is not your first choice to use when it comes to roasting potatoes but, it has its benefits. It's economical, frees up space on your cooker,it uses less oil and is safer too as not everyone can lift a heavy roasting tray from the oven. Not everyone has an airfryer or a big oven- some people don't have access to a cooker at all, so this can be an alternative as you don't have to par boil the potatoes beforehand.
This came about on Christmas day when I had no space on the hob for another pot and the oven was full too....but I needed my roasties done as you can't have a Roast dinner without them...you just can't! I will use this method every time now as it's a lifesaver. The recipe is straightforward, although I've used some herbs/spices to enhance the flavour of the potatoes. You can leave them out and just use oil on its own if you prefer. Why not give this a try and let us know how you got on in the comments below.

00Dump bag / Slow Cooker Jamaican Beef StewDelicious spicy beef stew which can be prepped ahead for the slow cooker 00Dump Bag / Slow Cooker Beef RaguThis is the best way I have found to make beef ragu in the slow cooker. I don't like to use mince in the slow cooker if I can't brown it first which kinda defeats the purpose of using the slow cooker in my eyes! So by using a chunk of beef and then shredding it once cooked we eliminate that issue00Dump Bag slow cooker beef and veg stewEasy to prep and cook but delicious to eat.
