Rating:  Summary: NOW IT'S SO EASY Review: I went from being a single mom with one child to a pastor's wife and mother of four - I had a lot to learn about time management and low budget cooking. This book is a lifesaver. I have several stand-by recipes now that I regularly use for church pot-lucks. My personal favorite is the Macaroni & Cheese - REALLY! It's just like my mom used to make, but no fuss. (A note here: my family prefers ziti noodles to macaroni.) There is also a flank steak recipe that is the best - with only 4 ingredients. How easy is that? Get this book and have one less stress in your life!
Rating:  Summary: Easy crockpot recipie Review: This book is the one you would want for easy and common meals. It includes many idea's for chicken, pot roast, etc. A great purchase!
Rating:  Summary: Delicious and inexpensive family fare Review: When I first bought this book, I had a few doubts because other slow cooker books I have bought had few good recipes. This book however changed my mind. Every recipe I have made has come out a delectable success. The ingredients required are simple and inexpensive. Since I started using this book, my weekly food expenditures have gone down substantially. Furthermore, most of the recipes require no excess fat and are relatively healthy. It is wonderful to come across a cookbook that saves me both time and money, has healthy recipes, and still makes my family happy.
Rating:  Summary: The best cook book for the beginning Crockery Cooker! Review: After my daughter was born, I discovered my Crock Pot! It's a big help to be able to prepare dinner early in the morning while she naps! This book was a big help, offering a variety of recipes. I especially like the fact that almost every recipe in the book has several variations--there's more than one way to make meatloaf!This is a great cookbook to start out your crockery cooking adventure. The recipes are basic and easy to follow. I still use the book occasionally (Taco soup with Black Beans is great!), but I've moved on to more exciting books like "New Flavors from your Crockery Cooker" by Better Homes and Gardens.
Rating:  Summary: A Lazy Effort Review: This book is largely a list of deplorable, highly processed, over salted, and unhealthy recipes. Given the number of cans of soups added to so many entrees, one wonders about the quality of food consumed by the author and contributors. The Rival Crock-Pot Cooking book of 1975 is far superior. Slow Cooking needs a fine cook and writer, such as Barbara Kafka, to update slow cookery and provide us with fine recipes. With so many people interested in good food and markets brimming with wide selections, it is sad to read books written by people of such limited culinary experience and skill.
Rating:  Summary: If you have a crockpot, you NEED this book!!! Review: Wonderful cookbook for the crockpot cooker. Tested several of the recipes within and it's a sure thing!
Rating:  Summary: Simple, Fast and Yummy Review: I came across this cookbook recently and I love it!! I have tried out several recipes and all have been delicious. The ingredients are minimal on many of the recipes, as well as the prep time. I'm buying a copy for each of my siblings for Christmas! BUY IT!!
Rating:  Summary: For novice cooks and crowds... Review: A lot of repeat recipes; for example, beef stroganoff, chili, bean dips, etc., and usually only one or two ingredients different for each recipe. Useful if you don't know how to cook or are a "new" cook--like for high-school or college students--or for cooking a casual meal for a crowd for Sunday afternoon football. For more advanced cooks, it's way too basic. Recipes are very high fat as well...processed cheese is a favorite ingredient!
Rating:  Summary: Forget it is right! Review: This is a redundant collections of recipes readily available on the internet for free.
Rating:  Summary: Fix It and Forget It Cookbook Review: An awesome cookbook with so many recipes! The layout is perfect and every recipe is easy to find. Worth every penny. It's an great way to get healthy, wholesome meals when you work all day.
