A few of my favorites for winter time, making soup/stews in a crockpot over night. What a time saver. I like to add chicken or beef bones, or any bones, to get the broth, along with the meat. Add a quality sea salt, some brown rice, quinoa, barley, etc, and the next day you've got a stew to eat all day long (when you don't feel like cooking). I will then take some out of the pot, heat up in a smaller pot, add frozen spinach (organic), or other frozen veggies, to make a complete meal. Or fresh organic if I can get it. And save or freeze the left-overs. Stews are fun because you can put just about anything in there, including sprouted nuts and seeds, at the end, just to warm it up without cooking it. Also, time to get out my sprouting seeds. I make broccoli sprouts, green pea sprouts & a few others. Love it plain or on a sandwich. I just improvise, making them in any available container, with saran wrap on top, with holes poked in it, and a rubber band to hold it in place. The smaller seed sprouts, once they are sprouted, can be placed in some sunlight for an hour or so, to increase chlorophyll.....
