If you haven’t heard of Paleo eating before, it's a style that focuses on nutrient-dense foods, such as vegetables, meats, seafood, nuts and fruit, and avoids processed foods, sugar, oils, and some grains, and dairy. A diet, full of refined foods, trans fats and sugar leads to many of the degenerative diseases out there. Paleo eating is meant to combat that and get back to a more healthy way of eating.

Today I’m going to reference the nomnompaleo website and highlighting one of the amazing recipes there. It’s easy in the slow cooker (as in the title), and honestly super delicious! In this recipe, there is an ingredient you probably haven’t heard of before called ghee. It’s a lactose and casein-free cooking fat that is basically butter with the milk proteins removed. For those who have a hard time with dairy or if you just want a more intense flavor that is also a great source of fat-soluble vitamins and fantastic for hair, nails, and skin, use ghee. You can buy it or look here to make it.
