Health and fertility benefits of Loaded Slow-Cooker Baked Potatoes

Broccoli is one of the non-starchy vegetables that has a very low glycemic index (GI), which is beneficial for reducing blood sugar levels. Broccoli is also a source of DIM (Diindolymethane). Diindolymethane is very effective in reducing the testosterone levels in the body, an action that would automatically curb male dominant features and regulate the estrogen levels in the system.

Ingredients

4 medium russet potatoes
2 tbsp. olive oil
10 oz. cremini mushrooms
1 bunch broccoli
salt
Pepper
1/4 c. vegetable or chicken broth
2/3 c. low-fat plain yogurt

Instructions

Wrap each potato in foil and place in a 5-to-6-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on low until potatoes are tender, 8 hours.
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add mushrooms and cook 2 minutes, then add broccoli and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until broccoli is crisp-tender, 8 minutes.
Split potatoes, scoop out flesh, and transfer to a medium bowl, reserving skins. Add broth and yogurt to bowl, then season with salt and pepper and stir until combined; divide among potato skins. Top each stuffed potato with broccoli mixture. Looking for more dinner options? Check out our pork chop recipes, chicken recipes, and potato recipes.
