Hot Pot Solar Cooker ~ A Cool Crock Pot

If you love crock pot cooking this is gonna be cool for you ~ another kind of slow cooker ~ a SOLAR cooker. The Hot Pot Solar Cooker is like a crock pot powered by the sun. How cool!? It takes about an hour for the cooker to heat up to cooking temperatures and can stay at those temps for up to 6 hours.

What a fun way to start teaching about solar power and ecology ~ or just a great way to keep the kitchen cool in the summer!!

The Hot Pot Solar cooker is pretty affordable, and if you do a lot of camping could be a great way to cook home cooked meals while still giving you time to go off and have fun.

Here’s a great video of the hot pot solar cooker in action.  Looks like the Frijoles are boiling, so I imagine it gets hot enough to really cook your food.

I’d love to hear if any of you already have the hot pot Solar cooker ~ please leave your comments below, I think it sounds like great fun!!
