The Slow Cooker Cookbook: 87 Easy, Healthy, and Delicious Recipes for Slow Cooked Meals
Whoever said nothing good in life comes easy must have never owned a slow cooker.
Slow cooking offers the best of both worlds -- hearty, healthy meals with minimal effort. The slow cooker, or "Crock Pot" as it is commonly referred to, is well known for its delectable pot roasts and savory stews, but what is less known is that it is capable of so much more. Enter bestselling author John Chatham's latest creation, The Slow Cooker Cookbook, which features 87 recipes that will put your slow cooker to use from breakfast to dessert.
The Slow Cooker Cookbook helps eliminate that dreadful feeling of coming home from work tired and wondering what's for dinner. If you own a slow cooker you already know that it's the easiest appliance to operate in the kitchen. But it takes too long you say. Well, that's the point. A slow cooker allows you to throw some ingredients in the pot, safely walk away and get on with your life while it does the work.
This cookbook offers recipes for all the traditional comfort food favorites like pot roast, beef stew, pulled pork, BBQ baby back ribs, old fashioned meatloaf, butternut squash soup and even mac 'n cheese.
Imagine your home filled with the spicy aromas of Tandoori Chicken, Chicken Ranchero Enchiladas or Braised Asian Beef. Dozens of international recipes feature meals you never dreamed of actually making yourself. And with the slow cooker doing all the work you will feel as though you are dining out.
Sounds appealing, but you don't eat meat? The Slow Cooker Cookbook dedicates an entire chapter of recipes to fish and seafood, and is filled with numerous hearty vegetable dishes like White Bean and Rosemary Soup, Eggplant Parmesan and Vegetarian Cassoulet.
And if slaving over the stove is your passion then most likely you're not the baking type. Let the slow cooker make dessert. From fruit crumbles and cobblers to hot fudge cake there's virtually no recipe that this cookbook doesn't offer.
ASK THE SLOW COOKER COOKBOOK, "WHAT'S FOR DINNER?"
The Slow Cooker Cookbook is an easy step-by-step guide to enjoying hearty, healthy meals without any of the hassle.

The Slow Cooker Cookbook: 87 Easy, Healthy, and Delicious Recipes for Slow Cooked Meals by John Chatham definitely delicious looking foods in this book. The recipes and their descriptions in this book have been very thorough and easy to understand. One of the few things that I liked about this cookbook is the fact that it gave plenty of recipes for the different meals including dishes from foreign countries. The book’s minor flaw is the lack of pictures on most of the pages, but other than that it is a very useful cookbook. I would recommend this cookbook.

John Chatham has done it again. In the Slow Cooker Cookbook the reader is given not only 87 delicious recipes that are easy to follow with delicious results but the author with these recipes encompasses an array of foods from soups to desserts to entertaining which never before have been so simply defined for a slow cooker. The author defines the technical aspects of the slow cooker, the pantry, cooking methods, ingredients and time frames leaving very little if anything
for the anyone novice or not to need or want. Well done.

Several good recipes I am going to try...though I probably will never spend 4 hours cooking veggies in my slow cooker when I could to so in 20 minutes, tops, with a regular pot on the stove.
Great ideas for meals when you don't want to spend an hour or more standing in front of the stove. Most of the recipes that sound awesome require some pre-planning by a day or more, so be prepared for that! Most likely use this on busy work days.

I read this book to give me more recipes than "chilli" and "beef stew" for my slow cooker. So far, it's delivering! I've tried bolognese, lasagna, buffalo chicken and polenta. I am excited to try some of the soups, as well as osso bucco and bouillabaisse.

Poorly edited. Ingredients missing. And why spray oil on your slow cooker with every recipe? Makes no sense.
