After a long day at work, imagine walking in the door and being greeted by the aroma of a glorious Pot Roast Beef with Brown Ale simmering away! Or serving guests elegant Salmon-Wrapped Cod with Buttered Leeks, after an entire day spent...relaxing! More and more busy cooks are discovering the joys of slow cooking - and eating better, and more responsibly, for less. In fact, the busier you are, the better a slow cooker works for you.

These tempting recipes will have you slow cooking soups, whole suppers, side dishes - even drinks and desserts. Once you plug in to the joys of slow cooking, you'll be waking up to slow-cooked Banana & Cinnamon Porridge...lunching on Crab Gumbo...dining on Baked Ham with Coca Cola, finished off with Strawberry Cheesecake.

And because slow cookers use far less energy than your stove or oven, they cost less to run - yet another way to save!
