“The table is a meeting place, a gathering ground, the source of sustenance and nourishment, festivity, safety, and satisfaction. A person cooking is a person giving: Even the simplest food is a gift.”

Crushing on My Crockpot
If you’ve followed my blog for a while, you know I’m a big fan of the crockpot (aka slow cooker). There’s nothing quite so satisfying as throwing a few things in a pot, leaving the house, and coming home from work to delicious aromas and dinner ready! It’s the closest I’ll come to having a person chef.
This blog is all about reversing autoimmune disease through diet and lifestyle, and that means home cooking, baby! And when it’s every single meal, every single day, that can take a whole lot of time. I’m all for making things easier, and that’s what slow cookers do. So, today, I have a roundup of delicious recipes, to do some of that cooking for you.
