When I was raising two children who were involved in after school activities like tennis and chess club and church youth group and baseball and art club and depending on the season any other number of events…we needed to be able to eat a good meal, fast, many nights.
The slow cooker became my best friend. I was able to purchase inexpensive cuts of meat, toss them with a sauce and cook dinner while I was at work. Now that’s multitasking!

Since we often had a short period of time between arriving home and departing for the evening’s scheduled activity, I really appreciated having the hard work done for dinner. All I had to do was fix a veggie and we were set.
