Picture this: you walk in the door after a long day at work. You’re tired, you’re hungry, maybe your kids are asking you what’s for dinner before you take them to soccer or ballet or violin lessons.
Except, instead of wandering over to the fridge and peering inside, wondering what you’re going to do…
You walk over to the slow cooker that’s been simmering since this morning. You lift the lid and this delicious aroma wafts out.
In 5 minutes, dinner is served and on the table, the kids are happy, and your stomach is full of warm, delicious, keto food.
That is the power of a slow cooker.
Throw your meat and veggies in them in the morning, let simmer, and enjoy delicious food later that evening. It makes dinner fast, easy and sticking to keto a breeze. Because instead of having to figure out dinner when you get home, dinner’s ready and waiting for you to eat!

A classic Southern soul food, this Keto collard greens recipe is so easy to make, requiring only 15 minutes of prep time.

This was too easy and too good not to pass on in case you’ve never done it!
Crockpot Kalua Pig
– The Domestic Man
Ingredients: pork shoulder, sea salt, liquid smoke.
Kalua pig is one of Hawaii’s best-known dishes and easily replicated at home. Traditionally, an entire pig is placed in an underground pit (“imu” in Hawaiian) that is lined with hot rocks and wrapped in banana leaves, then covered with a layer of soil and roasted overnight. Since we don’t have room in our back yard for an imu, nor access to a suckling pig and banana leaves, nor the desire to go through such a hassle, we just use a crock pot or french oven.
Slow Cooker Italian Pork Roast
– Melissa Joulwan’s Well Fed Ingredients for a Happy Life
Ingredients: pork roast, garlic, salt, Penzeys Italian Herb Mix.
I’m pushing the boundaries of using my slow cooker as a roasting vessel. I have a passionate dislike for stew and soups made in the slow cooker — they just don’t caramelize enough for me, and I feel like they’re always too watery — but I’m loving my slow cooker as a countertop oven.
New Mexico Carne Adovada
– She Cooks She Cleans
Ingredients: pork shoulder, New Mexican chilies, chicken or beef stock, onion, garlic, Mexican oregano, ground cumin, ground coriander, kosher salt, apple cider vinegar.
It’s a little messy, with preparing the chile sauce…it takes some time, with an overnight marinade of the meat and a slow cook on the next day. However, the end result is tender chunks of pork enveloped in a spicy red chile sauce, which despite the heat, has many layers of flavor.
Chili Verde
– Fit And Fresh
Ingredients: coconut oil, pork shoulder (butt), garlic, yellow onion, chicken stock, tomatillos, jalapenos or other peppers, cumin, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, cilantro, limes.
This recipe makes quite a bit, so if preparing for 1-2 people, transfer half of the meat into a freezer-safe storage container and freeze until ready to enjoy again.
Paleo Pulled Pork
– Anya’s Eats
Ingredients: pork shoulder roast, paprika, chili powder, cumin, black pepper, white pepper, cayenne, dried mustard, salt.
This pulled pork recipe is on regular rotation in our house. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am not one for fancy shmancy recipes with a million steps and a ton of complicated ingredients. I’m all about big, simple flavor achieved in a minimal but strategic way. This pulled pork may not be as traditional as smoked meat, but it certainly curbs my barbecue cravings.
Pulled Pork Taco Salad
– Anya’s Eats
Ingredients: pulled pork, romaine lettuce, pico de gallo, guacamole, red bell pepper, onion, Primal Palate Adobo seasoning, avocado oil, Tessemae’s Southwest Ranch or dressing of choice.
For years I was obsessed with Chipotle salads. And when I say obsessed, I really mean it. For a year or two, I don’t think there was a week where I didn’t grab one for dinner. It was quick, relatively inexpensive and in comparison to some other “fast food” places, Chipotle has much better (but still not great) quality standards. However, I’ve struggled with digestive issues for as long as I can remember and have a pretty sensitive stomach
World’s Easiest Crockpot Pork Roast

Ingredients: beef brisket, olive oil, onion, garlic, mushrooms, green bell pepper, ground cumin, chili powder, beef stock, tomatoes, salt, ground black pepper, flat leaf parsley.
Being on a keto diet shouldn’t mean you’re hungry all the time. This rich, deeply flavored chili will leave you full and satisfied. If you’re new to brisket, this recipe is great to try. It’s a fun twist on traditional beef chili.
Keto Crockpot Beef Stroganoff
– Keto Summit
Ingredients: beef roast, onion, garlic, parsley, white mushrooms, Kettle & Fire mushroom chicken bone broth, salt, pepper, cucumber, coconut milk/cream, Dijon mustard, salt, parsley.
I love using a crockpot any time of year, but during the colder months, it seems especially perfect. And a hearty Keto beef stroganoff recipe is both warming and delicious. And there’s the added benefit that making this in the slow cooker is so easier.
Easy Slow Cooker Keto Pot Roast
– Keto Summit
Ingredients: beef roast, stalks of celery, carrot, onion, garlic cloves, beef broth, Italian seasoning.

Simple Bone Broth
– Paleo Flourish
Ingredients: bones, water, apple cider vinegar.
I spent a large part of the day listening to and discussing natural health through food and nutrition, and bone broth definitely came up several times! So, it seems fitting to share with you my bone broth recipe.
Slow Cooker Asian Pot Roast
– Paleo Flourish
Ingredients: beef round roast, coconut aminos, beef broth, salt, onion powder or minced onion, garlic powder, dried or fresh cilantro leaves, star of anise, Szechuan peppercorns.
This is such a versatile pot roast! You can cook it and then freeze it for a few weeks so that it’s available whenever you’re out of food. It’s also great to use in random stir-fries with some vegetables or in a salad.
Paleo Crock Pot Oxtail with Mustard Gravy
– Paleo Flourish
Ingredients: oxtail, chicken broth, dijon mustard, salt.
I really love oxtail (it’s so tender and flavorful), and I’ve been lucky that it’s so plentiful in the UK! I see it at the butcher’s all the time, whereas I had to special order it in New York from my local butchers there.
Paleo Slow Cooker Oxtail Stew
– Paleo Flourish
Ingredients: oxtail, water, tomatoes, garlic, paprika, salt.
The first time I made oxtail stew, it turned out not that great. It was a similar recipe to the one below, but I put all the ingredients into the slow cooker. And it came out all watery and not very flavorful. I had given up on oxtail stews until my friend in London made me some delicious oxtail stew in the slow cooker!
Paleo Ropa Vieja
– Paleo Flourish
Ingredients: flank steak, coconut oil, olive oil, white wine vinegar, sea salt, cilantro, parsley, garlic, tomato paste, peppers, onion flakes (or onion powder), garlic powder, oregano, cumin powder.

– Slim Palate
Photo Credit: Josh from Slim Palate
Ingredients: corned beef brisket, onion, carrot, celery stalk, chicken or beef stock, green cabbage, avocado oil, salt, pepper.
Corned beef is something that is really special when you brine it yourself. Doing the brining yourself can be a bit of a hassle but is incredibly self-satisfying. Something about waiting that long makes it taste so much better, not including the fact that you brined it.
Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff
– Balancing Paleo
Ingredients: beef stew meat, salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, onion powder, mushrooms, onion, coconut cream, red wine vinegar.
Beef Stroganoff has been around for 150 years or so. It has stood the test of time for sure, sometimes disappearing for a while but always coming back into vogue. While I prefer other cooking methods for dishes that need to keep their distinct flavors and brightness, I’m a big fan of the slow cooker for cozy dishes like Stroganoff. You can always add some brightness with parsley, lemon zest, or zoodles as your base.
Spicy Beef Curry
– That Paleo Couple
Ingredients: beef chuck, white onion, curry powder, garlic, ginger, whole fat coconut milk, salt, chili sauce.
This is a really hearty curry that has a nice heat to pair with the winter weather, although I’d eat this year round. Beef chuck is one of the less expensive cuts at our market, and it was great to use it in something that wasn’t another slow cooker pot roast. This takes about an hour to make, but boy is it worth it.
Keto Crockpot Pulled Beef Rolls
– Keto Summit
Ingredients: olive oil, onion, chuck roast, hot beef broth, tomato paste, gluten-free tamari sauce or coconut aminos, erythritol, chives, coconut flour, almond flour, psyllium husks, baking soda, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, eggs, water, ghee.
There may be a lot of effort that goes into these pulled beef rolls, but they are so worth it! Since carbs aren’t something you should be dreaming about on a Keto diet, we’ve created these tasty, keto-friendly rolls to enjoy without guilt. The perfect choice for a casual get-together with friends.

– The Nourished Caveman
Photo Credit: Vivica from The Nourished Caveman

Did you know cabbage is one of the healthiest foods you can eat? Just add some delicious bacony flavor, and a nice chunk of grass-finished beef to complete the picture, a perfect beef stew! Beef stew is the perfect combination to come out of a slow-cooker!
How To Make Beef Bone Broth
– Health Starts in the Kitchen
Ingredients: grass-fed beef bones, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, filtered water.
Bone broth is known as a superfood. The cooking process breaks down bones and connective tissues – including proteins, minerals, and fat – that heal the body in various ways. Today, I’m talking specifically about Beef Bone Broth, but the same basic principals apply to the chicken bone broth which I will cover in a separate post soon.
Slow Cooker Middle Eastern Beef
– Craving 4 More
Ingredients: beef brisket, Sea salt, pepper, fennel seeds, whole cloves, whole peppercorns, cumin powder, cardamom powder, ground cinnamon, tomato paste, onion, bone broth, coconut vinegar or apple cider vinegar.

Keto Slow Cooked Beef Casserole

Nose to Tail Slow Cooker Beef Rendang
– Gorgeously Grain Free
Ingredients: desiccated coconut, dried birds eye chilies, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, salt, water, garlic, shallots, red chilies, coconut oil, kafir lime leaves, lemongrass, coconut cream, cinnamon stick, tamarind paste, stevia liquid, beef cheek, oxtail, cilantro leaves.
I wasn’t exactly sure what on earth I was going to make with these random cow parts, so I had a flip through some of my favorite recipe books to get ideas. Rick Stein’s Far Eastern Odyssey piqued my interest as I already had some bits and pieces from the Thai supermarket lurking in the fridge. I decided I would make my own take on his Beef Rendang recipe (a Malaysian curry).
Rich Hearty Slow Cooked Oxtail
– Forever Fit
Ingredients: oxtail, sea salt, black pepper, onions, leeks, celery, carrots, thyme, rosemary, bay leaves, garlic, tomato paste, beef broth.
I do love oxtail. When cooked correctly it really is incredible. Absolutely jam-packed with flavor and it gets all gooey and caramelized like making it hard to stop at just one. The key is to cook it slow and cook with simple flavor packed ingredients.
Slow Cooker Mexican Beef Stew
– Craving 4 More
Ingredients: beef stew meat, red onion, garlic, beefsteak tomatoes, green chiles, chili powder, oregano, cumin, Sea salt, pepper, broth, water.

Ingredients: red onions, coconut oil, black mustard seeds, fine sea salt, beef roast, curry leaves, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, serrano pepper, meat masala, coriander powder, Kashmiri chili powder, turmeric powder, black peppercorns, coconut slices or coconut flakes.
This Slow Cooker Spicy Indian Beef Roast recipe is my take on a very popular beef dish served in Kerala (Kerala Beef Fry). It’s flavorful and spicy – made with curry leaves and frozen coconut slices (which can easily be found at any Indian grocery store).
Meaty Paleo Chili
– Swiss Paleo
Ingredients: ground, chicken sausages, chili powder, cumin, dried oregano, cinnamon, tomatoes, tomato paste, onions, Anaheim peppers, poblano pepper, green olives, garlic, salt, pepper.
Back in my pre-paleo days, we used to make a vegetarian chili full of beans. I don’t know what I was thinking because this meat-filled chili is so much better! And, chili without beans = no chili farts…your friends and family will thank you.
Spaghetti Squash and Meatballs in Marinara Sauce
– Freerange Human
Ingredients: ground beef, ground pork, eggs, almond flour, onion, garlic powder, oregano, smoked paprika, basil, salt, pepper, marinara sauce, squash.
A classic home-cooked favorite of most people I think is spaghetti and meatballs. The marinara sauce is the easiest thing to convert into a paleo rendition, but the other two are well-known foods that contain flours and other sorts of non-paleo fare. The most common way around the spaghetti (and most kinds of pasta) is using the spaghetti squash. The meatballs can be a little tricky sometimes but when done right, you’d never know the difference.
Paleo Slow Cooker Shin Beef with Celeriac Smash
– Paleo Polly
Ingredients: shin beef, beef dripping, carrots, onion, celery sticks, beef stock, cumin, salt, pepper, celeriac, mixed winter herbs (thyme/ bay leaf/ parsley).

Crockpot Ground Beef Minestrone Soup
– Confessions of an Overworked Mom
Ingredients: beef, zucchini, yellow onion, carrot, celery, vegetable broth, tomatoes, garlic, dried oregano, dried basil.
This Crockpot Ground Beef Minestrone Soup is the perfect meal for a busy fall night. It’s one that I’ve been making for years and taking with me to lunch when I worked in an office. Now that I work at home, I store it in Mason jars in the refrigerator for a healthy, hot meal during the day. For those that follow the Paleo lifestyle, you’ll be happy to learn that this Paleo Minestrone Soup is something you can enjoy as well.
Slow Cooked, Grass Fed Beef Chili
– Frisky Lemon
Ingredients: beef, onion, carrots, celery stalks, garlic, tomatoes, tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, sea salt.
Let me start by saying M loves chili. I made this recipe for M’s work Christmas party and he’s been asking for it ever since. To make it detox friendly, this chili is sans legumes (no beans, people), and doubly meaty and therefore, doubly delicious.
Spicy Paleo Slow Cooker Chili (without Chili Powder)
– Oh Snap! Let’s Eat
Ingredients: onion, green pepper, portobello mushrooms, garlic, paprika, cayenne pepper, jalapeños, ground beef, tomatoes, butter or ghee, salt, pepper.
Chili is perfect for a lazy, chilly, rainy day, especially if you can make it in the slow cooker. It was exactly chili weather the other day so I was definitely craving it… the only issue was I didn’t have any chili powder laying around! Doesn’t matter to me, because I can make paleo slow cooker chili without any chili powder!
Easy Meatball Crock Pot Recipe

This is perfect for when you are on the go. You can set up the slow cooker with this great Paleo recipe then run to a few shops and come home and they will be ready to eat. I made cauliflower mash to serve them with which is a great low carb, paleo substitute for mashed potatoes.
Triple Meat Chili
– Paleo Dish
Ingredients: coconut/olive oil, ground beef, ground pork, flank steak, tomatoes, beef broth, garlic, mushroom, carrots, white onion, celery, broccoli, zucchini, red pepper, ground chipotle chilies, chili powder, fresh cilantro, jalapeños.
In true Paleo style, there are no beans in this chili, but I still wanted to give it that thick and chunky texture. To do this, I went crazy with the meat…a TRIFECTA, which included lean ground beef, steak, and sausage. Heaven!
Bone Broth for Bounce
– Cavewoman Cafe
Ingredients: bones with marrow and joints, apple cider vinegar, onion, carrots, celery ribs, rosemary or other herbs, cold filtered water.
Homemade broths are so much different than the store-bought ones. The most profound difference you will notice is that the store-bought broth is easy to pour out of those neat little containers. Homemade broths take on an interesting metamorphous and are jelly-like, no pouring these broths!
Paleo Pot Roast Recipe
– Paleo On A Budget
Ingredients: stew meat, onion, carrots, butternut squash, tomatoes, mushrooms, chicken stock, basil, oregano, cumin, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper.
This is serious as yummy as it sounds! And wicked, wicked easy. And it’s a Slow Cooker Recipe! It’s like an epic win on so many levels.

If you’ve been missing Mexican food while on a Keto diet, diet, this soup is a must! It’s rich, warm, and extremely satisfying- with all those great enchilada flavors!
Milky Keto Chicken Feet Stock
– Keto Summit
Ingredients: chicken feet, ginger, carrots, onions, ribs of celery, garlic cloves, salt, pepper.
While chicken feet is not your typical Keto ingredient, it does make amazing stock! With this recipe, you’ll create a gelatinous milky stock that you can use as a base for all your soups and stews.
Slow Cooker Chicken Adobo
– Paleo Flourish
Ingredients: chicken drumsticks, onion, garlic, gluten-free tamari soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, green onion, cauliflower rice.
If you haven’t come across this dish, then you have to give it a try! Adobo is considered to be (unofficially) the Philippines’ national dish. Although the word adobo comes originally from the Spanish word ‘adobar’, which means to marinade, the recipe dates back to before the Philippines was colonized by the Spanish.

I was at Butcher Bar a few days ago perusing their selection of grass fed beef when I spied some pasture-raised chicken on the top shelf. It came to $12 for the chicken, but it’s worth it to know where the meat came from!
Homemade Thai Chicken Soup
– Paleo Flourish
Ingredients: whole chicken, lemongrass, basil leaves, ginger, lime, salt.
I love making chicken broth in the slow cooker and after having some amazing Thai Chicken and Rice with Chicken Soup in Portland, I had to go make a Paleo version to enjoy at home! It’s a simple process – place everything into the slow cooker and leave overnight.
Slow Cooker Paleo Jerk Chicken
– Paleo Flourish
Ingredients: chicken, salt, paprika, cayenne pepper, onion powder, thyme, white, pepper, garlic powder, black pepper.
The word, “jerk” originates from Spanish words meaning dried meat (hence the food beef jerky). So jerk chicken, which is a popular dish in Jamaica (see photo above), is made with a spicy, dry rub. Although this dish is traditionally grilled, it’s actually much easier in the slow cooker! Just rub the spices on the chicken and cook away.
Slow Cooker Bacon Chicken
– Paleo Flourish
Ingredients: chicken, bacon, thyme (dried), oregano, rosemary, olive oil, salt.
I had a bunch of uncooked bacon left over and I wanted to use it in a dish that didn’t involve frying more bacon! And so I turned to the slow cooker. But what would it go well within the slow cooker, I pondered…chicken!
Easy Slow Cooker Curry – 2 Ways
– Rubies and Radishes
Ingredients: chicken thighs, coconut milk or homemade coconut milk, green curry paste.
Today I am going to share with you a couple of “recipes” that we rely on when life gets hectic.

Crockpot Chicken Yellow Curry
– Steph Gaudreau
Ingredients: boneless chicken breasts or thighs, onion, carrots, green beans, broccoli, tomatoes, and red bell pepper, full-fat coconut milk, tomatoes, cumin, coriander, ginger, garlic powder, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, water, salt.
Crockpots do everything for you…except clean up. Put it in and walk away…What resulted was a warm, filling, and savory curry that’s not at all spicy hot. Best part, it’s free from the weird ingredients found in most premixed curry pastes. and you don’t have to worry about that lonesome jar of rarely used curry powder getting stale because you’ve made it fresh.
When shopping for green beans, take a tip from Registered Dietitian Natalie Butler, RD. “Fresh green beans are the healthiest option. Look for beans that are bright green and free of black spots and blemishes. The beans should not be flimsy. For the most nutritional benefits, eat fresh green beans as soon as possible after harvesting or purchasing.”

Ingredients: onions, mushrooms, chicken breasts, chicken broth, thyme, salt, pepper.
I found a really great deal on some Split Chicken Breasts the other day so I bought them not really know how I was going to use them. With most bone-in meats I prefer to use the slow cooker so I started my online research for slow cooker split chicken breasts to see how long I needed to cook them. Then I checked out the fridge to see what we had available and voila this recipe was born.
Slow Cooker Chicken Stock
– Everyday Maven
Ingredients: chicken carcasses from roasted chicken, raw backs, necks and wings, apple cider vinegar, water, kosher salt.
I’ll be the first to admit that I used to buy chicken stock (or broth or whatever you want to call it) almost as often as I made it. I’ve mentioned some of my favorite brands before and while I do still keep a carton or two in the pantry for emergencies, it is now rare that I use a store-bought stock of any kind in most of my cooking.

Crockpot Chicken Stock
– Life Made Full

I love having homemade chicken stock in my freezer. Any time someone in our family starts getting the sniffles or feels under the weather, I whip out a jar of it and watch as they slowly savor each sip. I decided to try making some crockpot chicken stock so that I could just put it in overnight and not have to think about it until the next morning. I’ll never go back to using the stovetop for stock again!

When this recipe for Chocolate Chicken Mole was bubbling away in the slow cooker, my stomach would not stop constantly screaming to eat. I felt like it had turned into a toddler having a temper tantrum over some candy.

Ingredients: cream cheese, Greek yogurt, ranch dips seasoning, frank’s red hot, chicken, mozzarella cheese.
Last year, my husband and I attended a super bowl Sunday party and I was introduced to buffalo chicken dip for the first time, ever. (i know, I’m a little behind.) I was so delighted at this new “high protein” dip that I asked for the recipe. It was appalling. I couldn’t believe I had even eaten it! So this year, I’m taking control by hosting my own super bowl party and making my own healthy version of this delicious buffalo chicken dip. It’s amazing. And totally not healthy tasting!

Onion & Bison Soup
– Life as a Dreger
Ingredients: red onions, bison roast, beef stock, sherry, thyme, bay leaf, olive oil, salt, pepper.
One of our favorite pre-Primal/Paleo soups was a good homemade French Onion soup served with a couple of slices of toasted baguette topped with broiled Provolone cheese. By removing the bread and cheese and adding in some great protein, in this case, bison, we have transformed a soup that was previously an excuse to eat cheese toast into a hearty Paleo meal.
Rabbit and Andouille Sausage Stew
– Life as a Dreger
Ingredients: rabbit, Andouille sausage or other spicy smoked sausages, onion, carrots, mushrooms, chicken stock, red pepper flakes, cayenne, black pepper, paprika, coconut oil or ghee.

Attukal Paya (Lamb’s Feet Soup)
– The Domestic Man
Ingredients: lamb’s feet, onion, tomatoes, coriander, black peppercorns, cayenne pepper, turmeric, ginger, garlic, bay leaf, water, salt, cilantro.
Attukal Paya (sometimes spelled as Aattukaal Paya or just Paya) is a hearty soup made with lamb, sheep, or goat feet served in South India. What fascinates me about this dish is that it’s often served for breakfast – initially this sounded strange to me, but the more I thought about it, the more it made sense; why not start your day out with some nutritious bone broth soup?

Slow-Cooker Garlicky Shrimp
– The Washington Post
Ingredients: olive oil, garlic, paprika, salt, black pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, raw shrimp, flat-leaf parsley.
The gentle heat of the slow cooker is terrific for producing shrimp that are not overcooked. The poaching oil gets a 30-minute head start to develop flavor and soften the raw garlic. For easy, hands-on eating, leave the tails on the shrimp.

Ingredients: tomatoes, water, full-fat coconut milk, salt, curry powder, garlic, onion.
This soup is the perfect blend of late summer/early fall: loaded with ripe, garden tomatoes, but warming, easy, and full of flavor. This is a really lazy soup because during the semester the weekends are the only time I can really cook with leisure.
Cream of Celery Soup
– Forest and Fauna
Ingredients: celery, yellow onion, coconut milk, water, dill, sea salt.
This cream of celery soup is a tribute to the vegan cream of potato soup that used to be a staple in my diet when I was in my 20’s and living on a teeny tiny budget. But this soup is full paleo, starch-free, and alkalizing too! It’s also super affordable to make. And it is super easy, especially if you got an Instant Pot for Christmas!!

Ingredients: whole tomatoes, garlic, basil leaves, dried thyme, onion powder, red pepper flakes, Kal Stevia, heavy cream, parmesan cheese.
