This blog was inspired by the upcoming birth of our 1st baby Gerritt. Its purpose is to keep our family members and friends informed of the events in our lives. I am a natural birth & attachment parenting advocate. I am a strong midwifery supporter, & after my son's unfortunate experience with circumcision, have become an intactivist.

Vegetable Lamb Roast
This is another one of my favorite recipes to prepare during winter time. This dish is inexpensive & easy to prepare. The lamb & vegetables can be served with brown rice (our favorite), pasta, or alongside sweet/white roasted potatoes.
3 lbs lamb roast, de-boned & fat trimmed
1 onion, sliced
1 large carrot, chopped
1 large turnip or parsnip, sliced
4-5 large garlic cloves, minced
1-2 stalks celery, sliced
1 large fennel, chopped
3-4 Tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp sea salt
2 Tbsp dry Italian herbs
1-2 bay leaves
1 cup tomato sauce
Place all of the ingredients in the slow cooker & cook on High for 1 hour, then turn to Low for 6-7 hours. You may also cook the lamb on High for 3-4 hours if time is an issue. Regularly turn the lamb & pour the natural juices over it to keep it moist & tender.
This recipe may also be prepared using raw chicken sausages instead of the lamb. Just decrease the cooking time by half.
