This cookbook has plenty of recipes for the basics (chicken noodle soup, meatloaf, stews, root vegetable), but, in my opinion, really lacks imagination. Most flavour comes from cream, cheese, brown sugar, or maple syrup, rather than more healthy sources of flavour such as blend of herbs. Taco seasoning and Ranch powder appear as ingredients...... I found about 5 recipes I might try, but overall, I'm glad I got this from the library rather than purchasing it. Still, if basic home cooking is your jam, and you love the make ahead, freeze, then slow cook method, and aren't highly health conscious, this might be for you.
I was looking for something new that I hadn't ever tried in a crockpot, but nothing really caught my interest. The pictures are large and colorful and the instructions seem easy and to the point. I just haven't tried any of the recipes as of yet.
