Publisher's Synopsis
What are whole foods? It is food as nature intended it - unprocessed and unrefined. So many foods in stores today have had their nutrients stripped out, and are built back up with artificial add-ins, sugar, and other junk to make them bigger and taste "better." If you eat this food, the results are poorer health, weight gain, and vulnerability to diseases as serious as diabetes and cancer. With whole foods, however, all the nutrients have been preserved, so you're getting the real deal. It's grass-fed beef, butter, wild-caught fish, organic vegetables and fruit, whole-grains, and so on. You'll be getting all the nutrients like fiber, calcium, and fatty acids that your body craves.
The Whole Foods Slow Cooker features delicious, no-fuss dinners that cook while you work; roasts that transform into tacos, salads, and soups, for easy meals throughout the week; and satisfying one-pot meals that make prep and cleanup a breeze. These creative meals use whole-food ingredients found in any supermarket, and as an added bonus, feature recipes and directions for making your meals Instant Pot-friendly!
The heart of the book is, naturally, the recipes. You'll find good eats like:
Simmerin' Hawaiian Fajitas
Better-for-You Beef Bourguignon
Italian Harvest Chicken Soup
Coconut-Lime-Poached Halibut
Tenderloin Cacciatore
Butternut-Bacon Bisque with Shrimp
Cherry Chuck Roast

You'll even find a section just for vegan food, if that's more your style. Whether you're a pro at the slow cooker and want to eat more whole foods, or you're familiar with whole foods and want to use your slow cooker more, or you're new to both, this cookbook will be a great resource you'll return to again and again.
Get it now and give yourself the best present!
