Customer Reviews

The best I've found!

I have two slow cookers, and always want to use them, but can never really come up with much more than your basic Pot Roast or Beef Stew. When summer hits I would love to be able to use my slow cookers more, to keep from heating up the kitchen AND to keep my prep work to a minimum. I have seven or eight slow cooker cookbooks, and most seem to be variations on the same old recipes. This book is so different! The recipes are unique and intriguing, and the photos are gorgeous. I've made two recipes in two days and both are keepers! The Cantonese Pork is wonderful, and the Spicy Italian Beef was the easiest and most flavorful beef we've had in a long time! I've got another 10 or 15 recipes marked to try in the coming weeks, and I can't wait! Some recipes call for some so-called 'convenience foods' like Cream of Mushroom Soup or an envelope of Italian Dressing Mix, which I appreciate. I love making things from scratch, but sometimes lowfat or low-sodium convenience food options are practical and tasty, and they can speed up preparation. I highly recommend this cookbook for anyone looking to expand their menu options for their slow cookers!

Great Slow-Cooker Cookbook

This was my first slow-cooker cookbook and it's better than the newer ones that I've received since then. There are plenty of photos for those who need pictures with their recipes. I have marked about 30 must try dishes already from this book because they all look so easy and appetizing at the same time! And I'm hardly through it! This will definitely be an asset in our kitchen for years to come!
