I Love my slow cooker! It is awesome for baked beans (especially if you come home after a boozy night, you can put them on, then wake up, stumble into the kitchen and put some goodness back in ) and other legume-based dinners. You can use a casserole dish in the oven, but the slow cooker is such incredible peace of mind. It is very low fat cooking, too. Although so fricken tasty you could eat about 20 bowls! I mostly do beans and chickpeas and stuff in mine, but meatatarians can do some incredible stews and casseroles.
Hey cherished, when you do your roadie to the G-Cizzle to kick Ammaki's backside, pick me up on the way! Hear that, Ames? DOUBLE butt-kick. Watch yourself!
