5 Reasons You Should Be Using a Crock Pot
Convenience for Working Parents
Because crock pots are designed to cook foods slowly, they are perfect for working parents. Mom or Dad can simply throw the ingredients of tonight's dinner in the crock pot in the morning before heading out the door to work and dinner will be ready when everyone gets home that evening.
Healthier Home Cooked Meals
Our always on the go lifestyles have made it increasingly easier to grab dinner at fast food restaurants or stock the freezer with microwavable meals. Not the healthiest choices, but with a crock pot there is no need to eat so much junk food just for convenience.
Forgot to Pull Meat from the Freezer and Thaw it? No problem!
Due to the slow cooking process of a crock pot, it's ok to place frozen meat in and cook it throughout the day.
Traveling with Food
Heading to a party, potluck or family dinner and wondering how you'll keep your dish warm until it's time to eat? Use your crock pot. Many crock pots have locking lids and handles to prevent spilling during travel. Simply plug the crock pot in once you arrive at your destination to continue the cooking process and keep warm.
Clean Up is a Breeze
By cooking meals in a crock pot you reduce the number of dishes and cooking utensils needed to prepare them. Crock pots are also easy to clean due to the fact the main tub is made from porcelain and many are detachable, making them dishwasher safe.
These are just a few advantages of owning and using a crock pot. Just ask any crock pot cook why they love their crock pot and you're sure to learn many more reasons every kitchen should be equipped with one.
