### 5/5 — Great for busy mums!

*2021-06-27, version 4.0.4*

Must have app for busy mums! So many great recipes, love all the apps in the series!

### 5/5 — Just brilliant

*2021-06-27, version 4.0.4*

So glad I made this purchase a few years ago, always go back to it for the brilliant recipes! 
My children love them and we really enjoy them too!

### 5/5 — Great recipes! A must have for all parents

*2021-06-27, version 4.0.4*

We really love this app just like the others Natalie has. There are so many options and broken down well in different categories, very user friendly! If you want a healthy tasty meal you can throw in a slow cooker that will be a crow pleaser, this is your app!

### 5/5 — Great for allergies

*2021-06-27, version 4.0.4*

A fantastic app which helps to filter for different allergies you or your children might have! It has given me the confidence to try cooking and I know what I’ve prepared is safe for my baby!

### 5/5 — Highly recommended

*2021-03-17, version 4.0.4*

I have all of Natalie’s apps and after 4 years we’re still using them with my eldest/for family meals and now started using them with my youngest child- they’ve been more than worth the price!

### 5/5 — Amazing recipes

*2021-03-16, version 4.0.4*

I downloaded this app by accident. And what a great accident it was. ☺️
I’ve always been a really bad cook but I’ve been experimenting with some of these recipes I did a curry and accidentally burnt it as I didn’t realise my slow cooker was too big but Natalie was lovely and advised I cook for a shorter time so will be trying the curry again. I did a beef ragu last night and it was so yummy even my extremely fussy husband ate it and loved it. 
Would highly recommend this app. X

### 5/5 — Such a life saver!

*2021-03-16, version 4.0.4*

What a lifesaver this app is! As a busy working mama of 2 this has provided us with lots of wholesome family meals that don’t require too much prep allowing me more time to spend with my little loves. The meal choices are varied and the layout of the app into sections by meat etc makes it super efficient! Love it. My slow cooker is used 3/4 times a week without fail!

### 5/5 — Excellent app!

*2021-03-16, version 4.0.4*

Natalies apps are fantastic-I bought then after following her on Instagram and wanting the recipes!The app is user friendly and easily laid out making meal planning really easy.

### 5/5 — Amazing App!

*2021-01-13, version 4.0.4*

I absolutely love this app! There are so many great recipes to choose from and the app is so user friendly and easy to navigate. The filters are a great way to find a recipe to use up ingredients left in the fridge and I love that so many of the recipes are suitable for freezing so we have plenty of leftovers for another day. I highly recommend this - it’s been a great tool for thinking up new ideas instead of eating the same boring meals on rotation. Our favourite so far is the Kung Pao Pork - delicious!

### 5/5 — Great recipes for the whole family!

*2021-01-05, version 4.0.4*

Absolutely love this app, great ideas and my fussiest daughter even eats everything I’ve made which is a bonus. We especially love the coconut beef curry 😍

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-01-05, version 4.0.4*

Get it! And thank yourself later. I love the slow cooker app and since I’ve now returned from maternity leave with my 2nd it’s given me some great inspiration for being more prepped with dinners.

### 5/5 — Great App for family recipes

*2021-01-05, version 4.0.4*

Lovely app, great for the whole family not just when weaning

### 5/5 — Love this App

*2020-12-08, version 4.0.4*

This app has to be one of my favourite purchases. So many great recipes which are all absolutely delicious. I can throw everything in the slow cooker in the morning and not have to rush around trying to prep tea in the afternoon with a hungry baby. Highly recommend

### 5/5 — Love!

*2020-11-22, version 4.0.4*

I love all of the apps. However the slow cooker one is my favourite. Not just for winter but all year round! This app has made it possible to create home cooked meals while working as a full time nurse and mummy!

### 5/5 — Best Buy!

*2020-10-25, version 4.0.4*

I love this app especially now the weather is getting cooler! everyone in my house LOVES the bolognaise and my 5 and 1 year old can’t get enough of the curries! X

### 5/5 — Great idea

*2020-10-25, version 4.0.4*

I recently purchased this app after following blw on Instagram and it’s been a great buy. Lots of easy ideas to help if you’ve got stuck in a rut and the few I’ve tried so far have gone down well with my 15 month old.

### 5/5 — Fabulous App

*2020-10-25, version 4.0.4*

This is a great app for using with a slow cooker. Loads of different recipes. The whole family love the lemon and apple chicken and it’s so easy to make just put it all in the slow cooker and then it’s ready at dinner time!

### 5/5 — BLW Slow Cooker Recipes

*2020-10-12, version 4.0.4*

This app is perfect especially for the colder months. The first meal I cooked was an absolute success with my 5year old and 1 year old eating the lot!!! Since then I have done another 4 meals and all have been a success! So easy, so tasty!!!!I would definitely recommend this app it’s great for a busy family life and the app is very easy to navigate! I love that you can put meals into your favourites and add items for the meals to the shopping list as you go...genius

### 5/5 — Great variety

*2020-09-24*

Just purchased this app and already made the first recipe (Plum Chicken). Quick, easy and super delicious. Great addition to the other apps I already purchased.

### 5/5 — Amazing app with easy genuine family home cooked meals

*2020-09-22, version 4.0.4*

I love these BLW apps! I bought them when my now 4 year old was weaned and I still use them! The slow cooker app is my favourite - gorgeous meals that you can throw in the slow cooker in the morning, get on with your day and have a lovely homemade meal for dinner time. My whole family love the meals which has made life in a family of 5 so much easier. Our favourite is the chicken korma closely followed by the ham!

### 1/5 — Ingredient amounts are incorrect

*2019-01-30, version 3.0*

Having a bad time with this app. I’m in the UK and I don’t know if it’s been converted from different measurements but the ingredient amounts on two different recipes have been very wrong. Pork Lo Mein said 4kg of Pork which is a massive amount and would have cost about £15. I of course reduced the amount but then the rest of the ingredients were out and it just didn’t work. Another recipe recommended 1 tablespoon of smoked paprika and it must have meant teaspoon. I trusted the recipe and it all had to go in the bin. Bit frustrated now and lost faith in all the recipes.

### 2/5 — Odd measurements

*2019-11-27, version 4.0.2*

I made the sausage casserole, 6 sausages that apparently serves 6 people...so that’s 1 sausage each?! 
Then tonight I made the mushroom risotto....400g of risotto rice to just 500ml of stock?! Was hardly enough to cover rice and sure enough after an hour of cooking on low it was catching as was completely dry. I just had to guess and add more and more stock, but the dish was ruined and stodgy. Cooked for 3 hours as instructed but it was mush by 2.5hrs. 
I’m attempting the beef stifado tomorrow with the 1.5 KILOS of stewing steak that’s supposed to serve 4 people but looking at the half a cow in my kitchen I think again this is a recipe error.....

### 2/5 — Not worth paying for

*2019-02-08, version 3.1*

Average recipes and not particularly toddler friendly

### 3/5 — Generally good

*2018-10-04, version 2.9*

I like most of the slow cook recipes we’ve done. My toddler doesn’t but that’s toddlers for you. Some of the recipes in the normal BLW app are lovely, and truly delicious, others just odd and pretty disgusting or measurements don’t make sense. But we’ve had fun experimenting and have our favourites. Which brings me on to the reason the app gets just 3 stars. Every time it is updated, I lose all the recipes in my ‘favourite’ section. Incredibly irritating. Please fix this bug!!!

### 4/5 — Fab app, wish it included all recipes

*2020-08-06, version 4.0.4*

Got the app yesterday alongside the slow cooker version. Love the ideas and look forward to using them. 

Only thing I am a little disappointed about is that all the recipes aren’t available. I got this for the vegetarian recipes so can’t use all the recipes on here anyway. 195 vegetarian recipes available, 35 unavailable. Subscription is only £1.49 every 3 months but if I’m honest I would have preferred to have paid a little more to have the apps all ready without having to subscribe. Still lots to look at, just a shame the ones I were initially wanted to try are locked 🙈

### 5/5 — The best!!

*2026-02-11, version 4.0.6*

I’m so glad i found this app. It has absolutely saved me now that i’m transitioning back to work. I just through everything in the slow cooker in the morning then it ready for when i’m home. I can batch cook healthy baby suitable meals for my daughter while still having good portions left over for me and my husband. No stress, no wondering what to make, no worrying about nutrition and incredibly tasty family meals. Honestly the best app ever!!

### 5/5 — Lifesaver

*2025-01-22, version 4.0.4*

This is a lifesaver for delicious, family friendly meals that I can throw in the slow cooker and leave! Brilliant with young kids.

### 5/5 — Amazing for all the family!!

*2024-02-23, version 4.0.4*

I have all of Natalie's BLW apps, and I use them daily! We, as a family, all eat the same things as our got, and Natalie has made sure there is something for everyone! Super easy to use, favourite section so can save own firm favourites. Honestly cannot fault any of it. Hugely recommended.

### 5/5 — The best thing

*2024-02-08, version 4.0.4*

Being able to wack the slow cooker on of a morning & it be ready for tea is amazing! We try and eat with our little one but some days it’s just too early so this way we can all eat when we are ready and I know we’re all getting warm nutriaious mrmeals!

### 5/5 — Lifesaver

*2023-12-06, version 4.0.4*

The slow cooker app is literally saving my life this winter. With a toddling one year old constantly under my feet I was really struggling to get decent healthy food on the table for us all when my partner finished work but with this app it’s all done during by morning nap time and it’s a doddle! Well worth the money paid for it and well worth a follow on Instagram too x

### 5/5 — Amazing time saver

*2023-08-13, version 4.0.4*

Love this app, brilliant recipe ideas that are so quick and easy to put together. Love my slow cooker but had never really thought about using it for toddler recipes until this app. Absolute game changer and saves rushing around at dinner time. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Really useful app

*2023-03-15, version 4.0.4*

Such a great app. Quick and easy to prepare slow cooker recipes for busy people! I love the variety of recipes and can always find something to please everyone!

### 5/5 — Yummy korma

*2022-06-20, version 4.0.4*

We made Annabelle’s Chicken korma yesterday. I had a child stuck at home so got the slow cooker out! So simple yet so tasty! All enjoyed it with some pitta. I froze left overs too without the yogurt added. Really delicious easy and quick recipe

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-04-09, version 4.0.4*

All the recipes I have tried from this app my children have loved , and us parents . Ideal for being able to get the dinner prepped and cooking in the slow cooker while they nap etc and then it’s ready come dinner time without that usual stressy hour .

### 5/5 — Hassle free dinners

*2021-11-17, version 4.0.4*

This app introduced me to the joy of humming some ingredients into a slow cooker in the morning and enjoying the smell of yummy food while battling homework’s and tired kids rather than trying to make dinner too! The korma recipe is always asked for when I make it for gatherings and so easy!
