| Author Notes: | The author collected the recipes from folks all over the country. They provide maximum flavor and nutrition for a minimum preparation time investment. Many of today's slow cookers come with built in timers (if not you can buy a timer that turns appliances on and off at designated times), so you can throw ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning, set the timer and come home to a hot meal in the evening. |
