Clean eating is a diet that centers on limiting processed foods and focusing instead on whole foods. WebMD explains, “The basic idea of clean eating is to choose foods that are as close to their natural form as possible.” This involves creating a more balanced diet of whole grains, fruits, vegetables, fats, and protein.

Recently, CNN reported that overprocessed foods (like white flour and sugar) can add up to 500 calories to your diet everyday, leading to weight gain. That being said, avoiding overprocessed ingredients and incorporating clean eating into your daily routine is the perfect diet for weight loss. Read on for some of our favorite clean crock pot recipes for an easy-to-make meal that will help you lose weight fast.
