Using my slow cooker, particularly in Winter, has to be one of my favourite ways to make a tasty meal for my family. I love being able to load up the ingredients for this slow cooker cottage pie, and then at the end of a long work day we have a tasty meal to enjoy …

With the colder weather here there is nothing I want to enjoy more than nice hearty meals. We love having hot lunches, but don’t always want air fryer chicken or heavier dishes.
