I always see crock-pot recipes on the interweb but I don’t own a crock pot so I thought about it and realized that a rice cooker works similarly to a crock pot! I mean, you put everything you want to cook in it, push a button, leave it alone, give it some time and voila …
Clean eats: Tacos (gluten free, vegan friendly)
It’s taco Tuesday and tacos don’t always have to be unhealthy!
