What is Solar Cooking?

Solar cooking is simply using the power of the sun in order to cook your food - much in the same way as a slow cooker works.  


You can use a solar powered oven, a solar oven cooker, or a parabolic solar cooker.  There are solar cookers for sale and also ones that you can make yourself.
