Amazing Clay Quinoa and Sweet Potato Chili

Amazing Clay Quinoa and Sweet Potato Chili

Suitable for any model VitaClay cooker! 

You can leave the house or even go to sleep while your dinner is cooking for you. It's even better than a traditional slow cooker, because it's faster.

VitaClay cooking uses a sealed housing unit that creates micro-pressure while cooking, which makes it sort of a slow cooker and pressure cooker in one with the benefits of both!

Another drawback of a traditional slow cooker is that as a result of the very long cooking times, the food can sometimes come out bland, tasteless, and with a mushy texture.

 Not so with VitaClay! You won't believe how the clay seals in the flavors, textures and nutrients of every food you cook in it, from grains like rice and quinoa, to meat to beans!

The convenience and safety of a slow cooker and the great results of a stove-top pressure cooker, all with the great texture and nutrition of meals cooked in clay? Who doesn't want that?

Try VitaClay and you'll wonder where it's been all your life!
