Details Condition: New Format: Paperback ISBN: 9781761500022 Publisher: Murdoch Books Age Range: Adult / General Overview The Healthy Slow Cooker: Easy, Energy-Saving Recipes for Every Night of the Week is a brand-new paperback cookbook from bestselling food writer Ross Dobson. Featuring 100 wholesome, vegetable-forward recipes designed for the slow cooker, this collection proves that set-and-forget cooking can be both nourishing and delicious. Perfect for busy households, it balances smart carbohydrates, lean proteins and plenty of veg, while keeping energy bills down through low, slow cooking rather than the oven or stovetop. About the Book Slow-cooked food has always been easy and comforting, but this book gives the humble slow cooker a genuinely healthy makeover, leaning into vegetables, pulses, whole grains and lighter cuts of meat so every dish feels balanced rather than indulgent. The 100 recipes are organised around real weeknight life: quick-prep dinners for hectic weekdays, truly hands-off "set and forget" dishes you can start before work, hearty soups that double as next-day lunches, fragrant curries that reward slow, gentle cooking with deep flavour, relaxed Sunday-style suppers, and a few more indulgent options for weekend entertaining. Dobson writes with the practical, no-nonsense voice of a working chef and recipe developer, offering plenty of flexibility for dietary needs — vegetarian swaps, gluten-free adjustments and portion scaling for leftovers are all straightforward throughout. At 208 pages, this is a substantial, well-organised reference that home cooks will return to again and again, whether they're feeding a family, meal-prepping for the week ahead, or simply trying to get more vegetables onto the table without extra effort. It's an ideal addition to any kitchen bookshelf and a thoughtful gift for anyone who owns a slow cooker but wants healthier results from it. 100 tested, family-friendly recipes built specifically for the slow cooker Focu
