My disability makes it difficult for me to cook, but this no-chop slow cooker recipe is designed with people like me in mind

Hand lifts lid on slow cooker with chuck roast and potatoes visible.

I have an energy-limiting illness, so I often struggle to stand for long periods or to do something as simple as chopping vegetables for a meal. Often I resort to ready meals or end up living on toast for days at a time, which can mean I'm not getting the nutrients I need from my food.

This recipe, designed by creator Epicurious Expeditions, bears these limitations in mind and requires very little prep and no chopping or standing over a hot stove, thanks to the slow cooker. Epicurious Expeditions is doing a series of disability-friendly cooking TikToks and Instagram Reels which caught my eye.
