Easy Slow Cooker Recipes for Busy Moms
Rachel Ryan - 2012
After school activities, work, doctor’s appointments, even daily errands get in the way of the ability to cook a nutritious and tasty meal for the family. The ability to cook just about anything in a slow cooker can alter that imbalance. Slow cookers are the most overlooked and valuable kitchen appliance in the modern home. Almost everyone has one, but most people don’t realize the versatility of slow cookers. This recipe collection provides just a brief introduction to what these appliances can do. The recipes contain ingredients found in most kitchens, and produce delicious and healthy results. The goal of feeding a family is providing healthy food that you can feel good about preparing and serving. Processed foods are an easy answer, but their nutrient value is lower, and their sodium content is generally higher than home-cooked meals. This collection strives to provide a wide variety of options using very few processed items. That said, there are some items such as soup stocks and tomato sauce that are used. As a result, I’ve included a brief prologue with some basic recipes for kitchen staples that you can make ahead. Each recipe was prepared in our test kitchen. Each recipe includes an original picture of the actual recipe that was prepared.The recipes in this report call for ‘large’ eggs by default, and unless a cooked ingredient is specified, all items are to be incorporated in the raw state. Since this is a family and diet friendly cookbook, none of the recipes use lard, pork, or alcohol. Major allergens such as peanuts and berries are also largely avoided. Each recipe includes the following sections:TitleBrief descriptionPhotographNumber of ServingsPrep TimeCooking TimeIngredientsInstructionsNutritional InformationCooking tips [where appropriate]Relax for a while. Read a book, watch a TV show, go for a walk; good food doesn’t have to make you a slave to your kitchen!

Tasting Grace: How Food Invites Us Into Deeper Connection with God, One Another, and Ourselves
Melissa d'Arabian - 2019
She set out on a journey to get "back on track" with God when it came to eating and how she felt about herself. She laid food, exercise, and body image issues squarely at God's door and dove headfirst into His grace. As she prayed, read, studied Scripture, and listened she saw the invitations from God in the stories of her life. Melissa realized that food is not an afterthought for God--it is central in so many key biblical moments and invites us into His creation. Likewise, food is at the forefront of our society, as a topic of conversation and in our daily routines. Filled with heart-rending, hilarious, and eye-opening stories and anecdotes, Melissa shows us how food fuels far more than our bodies; it drives ministry and celebration, and connects us to one another and to God himself.
