When the weather gets nippy in my neck of the woods, for me there’s nothing better than coming home
and finding a hot, hearty vegan soup or stew ready and waiting.
All I have to do is hang up my coat, kick off my shoes and cozy up with a bowl of steaming-hot delciousness.
Now that’s what I call living!
So when I searched for another good vegan slow cooker cookbook, I was thrilled to find one by a vegan
who practically ‘lives and and breathes’ healthy slow cooking.
With “The Vegan Slow Cooker: Simply Set It and Go with 150 Recipes for Intensely Flavorful,
Fuss-Free Fare Everyone (Vegan or Not!) Will Devour”, author Kathy Hester, who blogs at
healthyslowcooking.com, has written a no-nonsense, easy-to-understand guide
to vegan slow cooking.
“The health advantages of a plant-strong diet are compelling and well proven.
But preparing yummy meals that are wholesome can be time consuming.
That’s where this book comes in.
Slow cookers can be huge labor and time savers, if you know how to use them.
This is the book that will show you how.”
John Robbins, author of The Food Revolution,
The New Good Life, and Diet for a New America
So, if you’re dying to prepare hot, nutritious, home-cooked meals for your family and friends, but worry
that time is never on your side, think again!
“The Vegan Slow Cooker” will have you creating fresh, nourishing cuisine in just two simple steps, using
all the healthiest produce, whole grains, and vegan-friendly ingredients found a your local market, farm stand
community garden, or your own organic garden!
With this amazing cookbook, enjoying nourishing vegan cuisine is as easy as:
Step 1.) Prep your ingredients the night before, in just a few minutes’ time.
Step 2.) Assemble everything in the slow cooker in the morning, right before you head to work.
Now that’s my kind of ” fix it and forget it” cooking!
