In today's fast-paced world, it's ironic that a gadget called a slow cooker (also known as a crockpot) can positively help you save time! The slow cooker allows you to prepare the components of a meal before work or at some suitable time during the day. The cooking meal can then be left unattended while you get on with other things. The meal is planned so that it is ready at your quarterly dinner time.
So you're not stuck doing labor laberious tasks over a stove, right at the end of the day when you are most tired and hungry!
