I swear this book is the same as the fix and forget it book with just "fat free" low fat ingredients switched in as possible. I am happy I was able to grab it on sale...However, it is still a wasted $2. Definitely not worth the spend. Food was old fashioned. There are a ton of other books out there that are much, much better.

Found this gem at my local library. I tabbed almost 20 recipes out of 600. I feel like she could make a flavorful book. You know, one where they actually use more seasoning than just salt & pepper. 🙃
A good guideline for people looking to get into slow cooking and need a place to start.

Great cookbook

I enjoy all of the cookbooks in this series. I can't wait to get to cooking some of these recipes. I love using my crock pot.

Love these recipes and esp that they are for the slowcooker!! All of the Fix It and Forget It recipe books that I've seen really are great! I've given them for gifts many times!.

The book did not have any photos to entice me to try the recipes.

These days I cook as little as I can get by with; so I am always looking for easy recipes. I found four or five simple recipes that don’t take exotic ingredients. Maybe I’ll try one of them someday!

I'm interested in the chicken curry recipe, but with the new puppy, this is just going to have to wait. Still, a cook book I plan to revisit!
