The Perfect Slow Cooker Cookbook
Call me picky, but I've always found slow cooker cookbooks to be overly simple (buy a can of soup and meat, put in pot) or overly complicated (spend 1 hr prep, cook all day). This one finally seems to address both problems. Here are the highlights:
* Recipes are pretty easy to whip up, but don't rely heavily on pre-fab (read: canned soups, etc) components
* The book is chock full of delicious recipes! You can find the 'normal' recipes, but there are some great new ones in here as well
* Prep time is roughly 5-15 minutes for any given recipe. Truly recipes you can make in the morning before heading out (or the night before)
* All recipes have a 'verdict' that follows, giving you a quick idea about the final dish. This helps much more than I thought it would when trying to select something to cook!
I'm really happy with it. If you're looking for a great, easy-to-follow slow cooker cookbook full of recipes you'll actually want to make, I definitely recommend this one.
I received this from the author for testing and review and have shared my honest experience in this review.
