If you’re trying to live a healthier lifestyle, you should eat as many different things as possible. You may use this as motivation to maintain eating healthily. Green salads, smoothies, and steaming chicken or veggies may be healthy, but they won’t keep your taste buds from becoming tired quickly. Try slow cooking; you can still manage what goes into the meal, so you can be sure it’s nutritious.
Here are three delicious slow cooker dishes that even health-conscious foodies will enjoy:
Vegan Corn Chowder Made in a Crock Pot
What’s Required:
Diced potatoes: 3
An Onion, Diced, One Large
1 minced garlic clove
2 minced red chili peppers
Juice of one lime
2 cans of unprocessed kernel corn
Veggie stock, 3.5 cups
34 a liter of soy milk
1/2 stick butter
One Tablespoon of Dried Parsley
1.5 grams chili pepper
2.25 grams of salt
To taste, black pepper
In a slow cooker, toss together potatoes, onions, garlic, peppers, chilies, corn, vegetable broth, the herb parsley, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Put the lid on and cook on low for 7 hours.

Instant Pot Spaghetti Squash Recipe
What’s Required:
1 spaghetti squash, rinsed and dried completely
1 & 1/4 ounces
The squash should be pierced 10–15 times and then placed in a slow cooker. Submerge the squash in water. Cook for 4–6 hours covered on low heat. After 30 minutes, take the squash out of the saucepan and set it on a chopping board to cool. When you’re ready, cut the squash in half lengthwise. Throw away the seedlings. Make “strands like spaghetti” by shredding the flesh away from the skin with a fork. Top with your preferred spaghetti sauce and serve.
