Old recipes play dress up!!

I don't know about most people, but when I bought my crock pot I fell in love....at first. But after I made the more common crock pot recipes the love died. I found that the food I made was all pretty bland and all had a bit of the same crock pot flavor. My soups and stews all tasted alike. But that is mostly because a lot of the crock pot recipes all utilize similar spices. Well, when I bought New Flavors from your Crockery Cooker I got down my dusty crock pot and gave the new recipes a shot. I was pleased with most of the results. Mind you I have not tried every dish in this book. But I have realized that some of the dishes are pretty much the same as the every day beef stew everyone makes, but with a few little extra's like apple cider mixed in. All in all I think New Flavors from your Crockery Cooker is worth the addition to any culinary library. I mean who doesn't want to try chicken merlot with mushrooms, I did and it was great!!

My Favorite Cookbook

If you live on a diet of bland meatloaf and unseasoned mashed potatoes, you will not enjoy this book. But if you are looking for easy but exciting recipes, and you are tired of eating the same old roast beef or stew from your crock pot, this book is for you! The Fruited Pork Chops with Couscous are especially good, as are the Raspberry Fudgy Brownies. Even my husband the gourmet cook is impressed!
