We are all aware of the need of healthy meals, those that are nutritionally balanced and yet are delicious.
However, cooking nutritionally well balanced meals is time consuming and those of us who work do not actually have the time to cook well balanced healthy meals for our families although we try.
The easiest way to cook those nutritionally well balanced meals is to have two small appliances that will help.
The first is a slow cooker.
You can place your ingredients into the slow cooker, set the time and let your meal cook while you are at work.
When you come home, you will have your meal waiting for whatever you might want to add to it, and your family and you are ready to share a balanced home cooked meal.
The second small appliance that you should have is the microwave.
Perhaps you now only use your microwave to heat up left overs or to warm up precooked foods.
But you can cook some very healthy and tasty meals in your microwave.
Get rid of the precooked foods as they do not have the nutritional value a good home cooked meal has.
You want to add to these small appliances a rice cooker.
We all know that rice has nutritional value and it enhances almost any meal.
Cooking rice on top of the stove is not easy unless you time it perfectly.
A rice cooker can cook your rice to perfection and you can keep it fresh and tasty for a couple of days.
Rice is an important part of our diet and should be cooked properly to be useful and to be enjoyed.
You can use the rice cooker to cook the rice in twenty minutes or you can steam the rice in about thirty minutes.
What is convenient about the rice cooker is that you can steam fish in it or cook and steam you veggies in it as well.
The rice cooker is simple to use as all you have to do is add rice and water to the pot, press the button and go about preparing your dinner until the rice is done.
There was a time when you had no choice in what kind of rice you wanted to use.
Now you can get a variety of rice such as, basmati rice, jasmine rice, long and short grain rice, and brown rice, to name only a few.
The rice cooker can cook any of the mentioned rice and keep it warm for you until you are ready to serve it.
Just think: perfect rice to serve with your dinner and no need to stand there and watch the pot to keep it from boiling over.
