Now, a slow cooker is something I've yet to try but upon a couple of friends' strong recommendations, and a kind donation of the cutest little slow cooker, that's exactly what I intend doing seeing there is this new health craze, counting carbs. Too many carbohydrates has long been known to aid weight gain, so now, there's been a turnaround and we have to be more careful. This book explains it succinctly and in understandable detail in the introduction. They've supplied a table with carb and calorie counts for fruits and vegetables, which is all good and well, but where do they give us an idea of how many carbs per day? A guide similar to the suggested calorie intake per your height and weight we all got used to would work. I assume this is all guesswork and just an indication. There are over 200 recipes to chose from. This is not a glossy picture book but it's full of healthy meals, which, along with good common sense and self-control, will go towards a healthier you. Some of us need all the help we can get (me included!) and each recipe has a clearly labeled carb count. Cooking meals in the slow cooker really makes the cooking process so much easier and these meals should appeal to meat-lovers too.
