Hit and miss,
By EMP (Gatineau, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Canadian Living: The Slow Cooker Collection (Paperback)
I got this book after getting a slow cooker for Christmas. There's a nice variety of recipes to try, including soups, stews, curries, roasts and even desserts. I've tried a few recipes so far and I find that they can be either hit or miss - some were really delicious, while others were bland. Also, the recipes state the size of slow cooker you "should" use for it, but most people don't have a variety of slow cooker sizes to choose from. That means if you have a bigger slow cooker, you could end up with a very small amount of food and wonder why you pulled the slow cooker out in the first place.

My Favorite Slow Cooker Cookbook!,
By Irene Henderson (Vancouver, BC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Canadian Living: The Slow Cooker Collection (Paperback)
Of the four slow cooker cookbooks I own, this one is my favorite. Lots of good, simple, and economical recipes. Lots of tips and photos. I have tried several of the recipes and use this book at least once a week. Supper is always on. I never eat fast food anymore.

everything that I look for in a cookbook,

This review is from: Canadian Living: The Slow Cooker Collection (Paperback)
I originally bought this as a Christmas gift for my sister-in-law, one day I was looking for some crock pot recipes and I started using her book (I bought another one so that I had a un-used one to give her).
There are a large range of cooking styles in here from more traditional meat and potato dishes to thai, mexican and morrocan dishes. There are a lot of beautiful pictures to grab interest and the ingredients are all things that are easy to find at a basic grocery store (my sister-in-law lives in a small town so this was a must). So far I have only tried four dishes, they were all excellent and I now have a long list of "must try's."
