Proctor Silex 1.5-Quart Round Slow Cooker Review

Some people do not like to spend much time in the kitchen. If it isn't microwavable, they don't cook it. If it wasn't for this little retro gadget, they would still be making 'Grilled Cheese' in the microwave.If you haven't looked into buying one of these contraptions, you should. Let me show you why any domestically challenged individual should have a basic, economical and easy-to-use crock pot like the Proctor Silex 33015 in their kitchen.

Even if you are NOT domestically challenged, you should have a slow cooker in your kitchen.

If you hate cooking, you will love cooking with a slow cooker and with a slow cooker, it is okay if you get distracted -- you will not burn the house down since the crock pot is meant to help you start supper and go away and forget about it.

• Easy cooking for those who hate cooking.
• Economical - you will save time and money as you won't need to purchase prepackaged foods that cost so much like pizza bagels, burritos, t.v. dinners, chicken nuggets, etc.

• It's versatile. You can cook both sweet and savory dishes.

Finding recipes for a small slow cooker like this one can be a challenge. I have seen it written that that slow cooker recipes are fairly forgiving and cutting a large one in half often proves to be a good solution. However, I also discovered this cookbook, Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Recipes for Two, by Beth Hensperger which contains 125 recipes designed for the popular small slow cookers from 1.5 to 3 quarts in size. It features recipes with quantities to feed one or two people.
