Slow Cooker Lamb Shank

Lamb is easily one of my favorite meats. Lamb shank is one of my favorite ways to enjoy it.

It’s not only incredibly healthy. Lamb shank is also reasonably priced and tastes awesome. I love lamb, and every time I say that I think of this guy:

Lamb isn’t just a great source of protein but is also high in omega-3s, B12, CLA, selenium, B3, and zinc. It’s a particularly great protein if you’re planning on getting knocked up (which I am) or if you’re already knocked up. I now plan on eating this slow cooker lamb shank several times a month. So many nutrients!

I served it over a mixture of mashed Japanese yams and white potatoes. It was seriously amazing.
