250+ cost-busting, simple, healthy recipes for great meals and more—which can be prepared in your slow cooker or your conventional oven.

Food is taking a bigger bite out of our budgets these days. We can’t fight that fact. But we can enjoy meals at the end of a day that stretch that budget while providing both savory tastes and top-notch nutrition. Best of all, the “secret ingredient” to most of these delectable dishes is in your house: It’s a slow cooker. If you don’t have one yet, don’t fret—your stove will also do.
