Recently I’ve seen a lot of people buying stock cubes (mainly my friends). And I can’t help but shout at them!!!!
If you cook a full chicken, please keep the carcass. It is fantastic for stock. Just boil it up in your slow cooker and you have fantastic chicken stock for no money! My local store charges £2 for 10 stock cubes.
Once again, it comes down to wastage!! Use your produce! Also, homemade stock tastes so much better!!!
I love slow cookers. Not only can you whack all your ingredients in and leave it all day and come back to a hot meal, but the food tastes so much better!! The meat is so tender and beautiful. So, I thought I’d share some of my favourite meals I use my slow cooker for! I’m in a bit of a rush as I’m making a Sunday roast today, however I will try to add some recipes later on!!
Also, slow cookers are a lot more energy efficient than normal ovens and therefore save you money on gas and electric!
Get your slow cookers out and use them!!!!
Bye! X
If anybody sees this, thank you for reading my new blog.
So, I’m a mother and I love cooking for my son. He is only a one year old but he loves his food. I was never a good cook before he was born. But since starting weaning him, my love for cooking and finding new recipes has grown and grown. I also love to be as frugal as possible. I feel that food is a huge part of everybody’s life but I’m positive and completely certain that good food doesn’t need to cost the earth. Here I will be posting recipes, frugality tips and just general food chit chat!!
