4 out of 5 stars Seems like a decent cookbook-but I'm no cook   March 28, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I'm no cook, and I just wanted some simple recipes for the slow cooker. This book fits the bill.

5 out of 5 stars Finally, slow cooker meals that taste like real food   January 16, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

We previewed several slow-cooker cookbooks from the library before buying this one and another of Finlayson's. So far, every dish we have made had been delicious and tasted like real cooking.

Many other cookbooks feature food that is easier to prepare. And many others feature recipes that are harder to prepare and require more exotic ingredients.

Finlayson strikes a happy medium with easy-to-find ingredients that combine traditional preparation with the time and energy savings of a slow cooker. You can prepare elements of meals ahead of time and, if you plan several meals during one week, prep all the ingredients and store them until you are ready. Then, cook for a few minutes in the morning and come home to a hot -- and delicious -- dinner. What a relief.


2 out of 5 stars May be amazing, but it isn't simple   October 24, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is a wonderful looking book and it appears to be well written, but the recipes are complex. If you are looking for a dump in the pot and go book, this isn't it. My mouth was watering looking at the pictures, but the directions made me give it up.
If you want gourmet slow cooker recipes, this may be the book for you. If you want a beginner book for family meals, maybe not this one.


4 out of 5 stars Very good book!   January 28, 2007
 10 out of 10 found this review helpful

175 Slow Cooker Classics by Judith Finlayson is a very good book for slow cooker users. It shows that the list of things you can make in your slow cooker is almost infinite. Using the recipes in this book you'll create meals that will soon become family favorites. Better still, producing such outstanding results requires a minimal amount of your attention.

In addition to producing great-tasting food, a slow cooker is an extremely effective time-management tool. Finlayson offers suggestions to maximize convenience and to get the most out of your slow cooker such as partially preparing a dish up to 2 days prior to cooking; do any additional chopping and slicing the night before you intend to cook to keep work to a minimum when it's less convenient; or cook a recipe overnight and refrigerate it until ready to serve.

You'll find recipes to satisfy everyone in your family in this book, for example: Minestrone with Garlic-Flavored Crostini, Easy Chicken Paprikash, Santa Fe Style Ribs, Risotto and Maple Orange Pudding with Coconut. All the recipes include make-ahead notes and tips.
