While this cookbook was not very vegetarian friendly I did find a few recipes I liked. I appreciated that each recipe indicated what size crock pot to use, though most were for five quart slow cookers, I found this to be really helpful. I also appreciated that there are a few really creative recipes in this cookbook especially the mango chili which i look forward to making sometime soon.

There were a lot of good, easy recipes in here. I look forward to trying them out. You just have to be able to get over all the "product" placement.

Picked out about five desert recipes to try out. Have tried her main courses before and didn't care for them. Will update as I make them.
