Imagine coming home from a long, tiring work day only to find a delicious aromatic stew waiting for you. Or enjoying a day on the slopes and arriving to find mulled red wine already prepared and simply waiting to be poured and savored. By using a timesaving slow cooker, you can have a hot meal or warm drink ready and waiting when you are, without any fuss.
In the last five years, slow cookers have enjoyed a huge increase in popularity. By simmering food at a constant low temperature, slow cookers create food that enjoys a flavor and texture not normally found in stovetop or oven cooking. Ingredients need only be prepared in advance, then tossed into a slow cooker and the results are an easily prepared but satisfying meal.
"America's Best Slow Cooker Recipes" features over 125 newly developed and tested recipes. Banish the winter blahs by making 'Beef Goulash Soup with Red Wine' or 'Comfy Maple Baked Beans.' Busy families will enjoy the 'Chicken and Broccoli Casserole' or 'All Day Mac & Cheese.' When entertaining dazzle your guests with a 'Hot Crab, Artichoke & Jalapeno Dip' followed by a tantalizing 'Pork Roast with Peach Chutney.' Sensational recipes for desserts such as 'Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cake' and 'Caramel Peaches' can also be created in a slow cooker. These are recipes for today's tastes and today's homes.
As well as including fabulous recipes, "America's Best Slow Cooker Recipes" contains useful information on the type of slow cookers available, food safety, tips for success, adapting favorite recipes, and leftover hints. Recipes for accompanying delicious side dishes are also included.

Great recipies and tips,

This review is from: Canada's Best Slow Cooker Recipes (Paperback)
This is the second slow cooker cookbook I have and it is great. The recipes contain real ingredients (rather than a can of this and a can of that) and the results are always great. Very yummy food. Typically there is no salt on the ingredient list, cutting down on the sodium. My only hesitation with the book is the number of recipes that require pre-cooking (i.e. browning meat). To me, that defeats the purpose a bit. As a result, I focus on the recipes that do not require pre-cooking. Enjoy!

I use this cookbook at least 3 times a week. I have never been disappointed with any of the recipes, so it is safe to try new recipes with visitors over for dinner,

This book is full of tasty food that has my husband eating and enjoying foods he "doesn't" like. One of the better slow cooker books I've got.
