I’m not the most efficient in the kitchen. Let me clarify…I’m great at following recipes and really like to bake, but when it comes to making dinner, I have a really hard time just looking at the ingredients we have and then making a meal out of it all.

A mompreneur friend of mine invented the coolest product and now I’m rethinking my aversion to making dinner. My mouth actually waters every time I’m perusing the menu section on her website!

The Slow Cooker Mate is unique from other slow cookers because you can cook an entire meal, including side dishes separated in three compartments, yet all on one appliance! Yup, you heard it right!

The Slow Cooker Mate would be a wonderful gift idea for any domestic diva, a wedding gift, a going off to college gift, a housewarming gift, a Christmas gift, a Birthday gift…you name it!
