Hi, welcome to my blog, The Magical Slow Cooker. I started this blog in January 2013. I really can’t explain what made me start this blog. I do remember realizing that the only thing that would make me jump out of bed was the days I had a new slow cooker meal planned. I recently quit my job as a mail carrier, I did that for 10 years. That job was a blessing, but I am now working on my blog and cookbook writing full-time.
I live in Oregon with my husband and 10-year-old. I make about 3 or 4 slow cooker meals a week, the other days we either dine out or I make meals that are super easy to put together.
I hope you enjoy the recipes here, please send me an email if you ever have any questions!

Hello,
All the way from Cambridge, Ontario, Canada!

Hello my name is denece i decided to try news things and i love the meat ball recipe.
Dear Sarah,
Love, love your blog. I was wondering, what brand of slow cooker do you prepare your meals in. I am looking to purchase a new one. Would love to have your advice. Thanks so much, Laurie Noakes
Dear Sarah,
Can your book still be purchased? I did not see a link to go and purchase your book. Is the book available to down load and keep on my computer?
Hi Sarah, thanks so much for a great site! Have you done much with the new (or maybe just new to me) 9×13 casserole shaped slow cookers? I’m new to your site so sorry if I missed that info.:)
I printed some of your dinner recipes hoping they will help a full time working woman with a hubby, and 2 teenagers who rarely eat together. They look good, keep cooking! 🙂
So glad the recipes can help!

Hi Sarah
Thanks for your time and effort in making these delicious recipes available..for slo cooking!!
Here in AZ, our summers are just too hot for cooking out side too, sometimes. We use our slow cookers and my Ninja multi cooker and cook on the patio ,while my kitchen stays cool.
I have an antique round 3 quart slow cooker and Saturday nights I prepare one of your great recipes for an “old man alone” Sunday fiests. Thank you. They are great, especially the Brats & Beer but I use Newcastle Ale. Mmmmm
That’s great Steve! Thank you for the kind comment!
Hi from Tillamook!!! I loved you showed a bar of Tillamook Sharp Cheddar Cheese in one of your recipes. It was excellent. I plan on looking to your blog in the future for more recipes.
Hi Jody! We live in Springfield, Oregon! We go to Tillamook once a year for the cheeses factory. Is the new one done yet?
Just found your site. Slow Cooker Salsa Verde drew me. Know before make this dip delicious because familiar all ingredients. Am 78 with arthritis so simpler the better for me. Going to check out more your recipes.
Hi Sarah, I’m using you as a kick start to my cooking. I’m new to slow cookers(cooking as a whole is new to me). I was wondering as I went through the chicken recipes and it came to me like a rushing tide. I know you are in USA so would I come up with problems with ingredients as I live in the UK. I know from experience that some products aren’t available here so obviously I would have to use substitutes. Being a complete novice this is out of my spectrum. Hope you can offer advice.

Hi Rodger! You are welcome to ask me any question right on the specific recipe or use my contact me form, I would love to help.
Hey there,
Recently retired with a working wifey!!!! I love these ideas and a slow cooker seems to be a lazy mans dream… can cook, do stuff around the house and it makes me a hero to the boss!!! I love to eat the these recipes are great. Who knew, I love cooking with fresh ingredients ( diabetic here), and having time to enjoy my retirement… THANKs and aloha and mahalo nui loa.
That’s great Wayne! Glad to hear you are cooking up some great recipes.
Thank you for all the yummy recipes! I’ve used my crockpot for years & love coming home from work knowing dinner is done! Our son & I are vegan so I am adjusting some of your recipes, but I know they will be delicious! I love that you post a video, I’m a visual person. Since our kitchen is being renovated, the crockpot is the easiest way to cook!
Just discovered your blog…a friend was kind enough to share one of your recipes on FB. This is a great find – thanks for your recipes, can’t wait to try some!
Hi Sarah. I stumbled across your website/blog yesterday and it’s fab! I’m about to buy my first crock-pot -the one I’ve decided upon is a 4 litre model. Is it easy to search for 4L recipes on your site or are they all for bigger slow cooker models?
Hi Lesley! Is it a 4-quart? A lot of my recipe are for the 6-quart. My advice is if it fits it cooks. 4-quart is still a pretty good size and a good size of my recipes can be made in one. You can search 4-quart on my blog and the recipes should come up for 4-quart or larger. Make sure to use the – sign in your search.
