Slow & Low: Low Carb Soups, Stews and Meals for Your Slow Cooker: From the Authors of The Low Carb High Fat Diet
Your favorite Low Carb cookbook creators are at it again! Based on readers' suggestions, mother and daughter (Laura Childs and Veronica Childs, NT) have put their most often requested slow cooker recipes together in a low carb cookbook just for you.
Inside you'll find over 60 delicious low carb soups and entrees to please most palates while saving the home cook time and money. These are dishes that everyone can enjoy, including family members or guests who don't watch their intake, count carbs or pay attention to daily macro-nutrients.
Each recipe provides a complete nutritional breakdown as well as a handy macro-nutrient pie chart for readers following a low carb high fat diet plan. See your macros at a glance and instantly know what else to put on the table to round out your meal.
Within this collection you'll also find recipes for standard slow cooker accompaniments - savory muffins, a deliciously crunchy cracker, mock mashed potatoes and more. If you're new to a low carb diet you'll also find favorite healthy food hacks to replace pasta and rice!
These recipes are standard North American fare with just enough International cooking to please your palate. A little of everything - Italian, Hungarian, Mexican, Chinese, Japanese, Jewish, Caribbean, French, Thai and Indian cuisines are all represented!
All of the ingredients are easy to find and reasonably priced.
Healthy food on the table; without spending hours in the kitchen every day!
Created with singles, couples and small families in mind. Most recipes are easily scaled up for larger slow cookers and families (see: "Working With Your Slow Cooker" inside the book).
So much more than a low carb cook book. Quick chapters on safe practices for slow cookers (many popular free recipes put your family at risk in multiple ways), easy home broth mastery, cooking fish in a slow cooker, converting family-favorite recipes for slow cooking, and much more.

About the author
Laura Childs
19 books5 followersLaura Childs spent many years working in the communications and marketing industry. From desktop publishing for both corporate and socially-minded clients, to programming and creating online Knowledge Management courseware for highly respected authors in their field; Laura has worked in Canada and internationally in a vast array of roles.
In the last 20 years she's provided many of her services and offered consultation from her hobby farm located high in the hills of the Canadian Shield. On the farm, Laura raised her daughter to discover her own talents and interests, be adept at living off the land, and balance it all with compassion, grace, and social responsibility. After 17 years on the farm, mother and daughter now live apart, but near each other, in southern Ontario.
With such diverse interests and life experiences, Laura has turned to utilizing her talents to inspire others, helping each to recognize their potential and rise to their personal best. While Laura has spent many years writing about country living, she now writes and blogs on more personal and accessible topics of health, diet, weight loss and natural foods. She has most recently co-authored a book with her daughter on the weight loss diet they created together, "Low Carb, High Fat, No Hunger Diet" (June, 2014).
