Slow Cooker Do’s

and

Don’ts for Easy Homemade Meals

A slow cooker is an indispensable appliance for busy households, perfect for combining all your ingredients and letting them cook while you go about your day. Requiring minimal effort and cleanup, slow cookers can be left unattended for hours to work their magic, producing versatile dishes that are as flavorful as they are effortless. Enjoy simple, delicious homemade meals using these slow cooker do’s and don’ts.

Do: Fill your slow cooker half to two-thirds full to guarantee that the foods cook properly.

Do: Take the time to brown meats or sauté vegetables before adding them to the slow cooker for extra dimension and deep, caramelized flavor.

Do: Use only small amounts of flavorful liquids like broth, wine and juices since little to no evaporation occurs in slow cookers.

Do: Pay attention to layering information in recipes. Cook tough vegetables like potatoes and carrots at the bottom of the slow cooker to ensure they retain more moisture and cook more swiftly.

Don’t: Start with f rozen meat. Fully thaw meats before placing them in the slow cooker to avoid harmful bacteria and prevent excess moisture.

Don’t: Add pasta, rice, dairy or fresh herbs until the last 15 to 30 minutes to avoid overcooking.

Don’t: Forget to use more flavorful, aromatic ingredients than usual. Since slow cooking can mellow out flavors over time, tossing in extras like garlic, onion and celery can help ensure a flavorful dish.

Don’t: Lift the lid unless the recipe instructs you to stir. Checking on the food’s progress releases too much heat, and it can take as long as 30 minutes to heat back up after peeking.

Prep: 10 minutes • Roast: 20 minutes

Tips for a healthy (and tasty) game day

Fall is here, which means football is back! Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just there for the snacks, one thing every tailgate attendee recognizes is the importance of tasty tailgating food. While game-day foods are typically known for their greasy indulgences rather than their nutritional value, creating a nutritious tailgate spread is easier than you might think.

Use our simple suggestions to make a football feast perfect for healthconscious fans.

Score Big but Go Mini

To keep portions in check, turn to recipes that deliver bite-size, big flavor. There are countless ways to savor fan-favorite recipes, from mini pizzas to mini sliders and mini meatballs.

Mind the Prep

Crispy fried finger foods are a must-have for tailgates but require loads of unhealthy fats for frying. Enjoy your crispy, crunchy favorites with healthier preparation methods. Air fryers give foods that crispy satisfaction with just a hint of oil compared to deep fryers. Make air fryer fries using potatoes, zucchini or avocado slices.

Smart Swaps

Instead of focusing on foods to avoid, swap traditional ingredients for nourishing alternatives or add healthier elements to your favorite football dishes.

• For baked mac and cheese, substitute cauliflower for noodles and incorporate butternut squash into the cheese sauce for a nutritional boost.

• Add beans, peas and lentils to chili for a boost of fiber.

• Use Greek yogurt as the base for dips and serve with homemade baked tortilla chips or veggie slices.

• Top burgers with nutritious fruits and veggies like lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, grilled mushrooms and pineapple.

• For a better-for-you tailgate treat, fruit kabobs are packed with nutrients and easy to pop on the grill. Serve with a drizzle of dark chocolate, yogurt or honey.

Choosing the Kitchen Cooker for You Cooking Made Easy

New, efficient kitchen appliances continue to bring buzz to home cooks seeking flavorful meals with less effort. But choosing between cooking gadgets can be daunting, as each serves distinct purposes. Here’s a brief overview of slow cookers, pressure cookers and air fryers to help you find the perfect fit for your kitchen.

Slow Cooker

An essential for busy households, slow cookers simmer foods at low temperatures over extended periods, ideal for unattended cooking. Whether preparing a meal overnight or coming home to a ready dinner, simply load ingredients, then let the slow cooker work its magic. Ensure the cooker is filled one-half to two-thirds full for proper cooking. Pay attention to layering information in recipes; foods cooked at the bottom of the slow cooker will cook faster and retain more moisture since they simmer in the liquid. Also, avoid lifting the lid to check on the progress of your meal, as it may release too much of the necessary heat. Instead, try spinning the lid until the condensation falls off, then look inside to see your progress.

Pressure Cooker

Using steam pressure, pressure cookers elevate water’s boiling point to cook food faster, which is great for swiftly tenderizing tough meats and cooking beans, rice or vegetables. While timing can be tricky, manufacturers offer cooking charts for guidance on cooking times and pressure release.

Air Fryer

Air fryers crisp food using circulated dry heat, reducing oil use for a healthier option. Perfect for frying, roasting and baking, they require careful monitoring to prevent burning due to their intense heat. Compact and portable, they’re ideal for efficient cooking on the go.

Each device offers unique benefits, making them invaluable for preparing delicious meals with ease.
