    So, the 'Save Money in the Kitchen' series of blog posts continue. We have covered 'Budget Healthy Recipes' and 'Pancake Day: Money Saving Tips'. Now the weather is starting to get cooler again (it feels like we are regressing back into Winter 🙄) I thought it would be the perfect time to share some 'Money Saving Slow Cooker Recipes'.

    Slow cookers are among the cheapest appliances to cook with. According to TheMoneyEdit.com:

    Putting the numbers together it costs 21p an hour to run an average oven, nearly 17p more than a medium-sized slow cooker. So, the slow cooker is cheaper to use than the oven in most cases, but always factor in: Size of the slow cooker. The meal you are cooking.

    So there is definitely a saving to be made - plus it is convenient, as it cooks while you get on with your day!

    Here we share the top budget slow cooker recipes, to keep you warm from the inside out on these chilly evenings. 😍🧦🌡
