Talk about inspiration!
I swear, the PICTURES of food are nearly as inspiring to me as the pictures of success stories! Well okay -- success stories rank #1 in the hall of divine inspiration -- but these great photos of food create excitement about it all.
Just as I was ENDING my "3 week trial" LC plan 9 months ago - starting as soon as I get my check, food and supplements I'm back on as a WOL now -- I got a crockpot. I got a book with so many great recipes I can hardly stand it. Still, many of the most common ingredients (onions, tomatoes, etc.) in dinner foods are not lowcarb in any quantity. (Btw, I didn't know you could make not only main dishes and soups/stews, but side dishes, specialty drinks, breads, and even desserts in a slow cooker! I think I thought SC's just had 1001 variations on stew. :-))
It would be cool to see a thread dedicated to slow cooker recipes that were LC. Given the time LC eating takes in cooking, I'd think SC's would be a lifesaver. Especially given how easy it is for me to dump 8 chicken breasts and some stuff in one, ignore it for 6 hours, then dump it in a covered bowl for the fridge and have chicken to eat, shred, slice, dice, etc. for days. (For those like me who have really high protein needs, that's way helpful.)
