Rate this book
In today’s modern society where everyone’s always in a rush, it makes sense to rely on fast food. As the name implies, fast food is quick and convenient—perfect for those who don’t have the time to cook homemade meals for the family. However, it’s important to remember that fast food has long been linked to various health problems. Is it really worth sacrificing health for the sake of convenience? A 2014 study reports that regular consumption of fast food products, which are typically high in calories, fat, cholesterol, sugar, and chemical additives, can increase the risk of heart disease and many other serious ailments. So what can a busy person do? Find ways to create home-cooked meals the easy way! One way is to make use of the slow cooker. Otherwise known as the crockpot, the slow cooker became very popular in the 1970s. And it’s making its way back to the kitchens of American families who want to create flavorful dishes with little time and effort. Yes, the cooking time is long.

And all those hours the dish is cooking can be spent doing other important chores around the house.

This cookbook doesn’t have a lot of recipes, but a couple of the vegetarian ones caught my eye since I am hoping to share a meal with a vegetarian friend soon. Many of the recipes are similar to old favorites from cookbooks already in my possession. Others look like good inspiration for meal prepping on a busy week.

Nothing exciting

No pictures either. Also ads within the kindle version. Definitely should avoid these books in the future. I definitely don't want to know anyone who has used a slow cooker for fish. All. Day. Long.

recipes directed more towards chefs instead of cooks

I don’t like to give spoilers on the books that I read. I believe the blurb on the back is enough for you to decide if you will read the book or not. If you choose to read, enjoy!

Recipes

I paged through it and didn't find anything my family would want to try. Majority of the recipes had at least one item in it that I normally wouldn't have.

A very nice slow cooker cookbook for sure! It has simple, easy recipes that we all love!

It’s a wonderful go to, especially when it’s hot out and you don’t want the oven heating your house up!
