Title: Only if you have a lot of time on your hands
Product review: I was incredibly disappointed in this cookbook. A large number of the recipes seem to be more about proving the varity of foods you CAN cook in the slow cooker, rather than foods it is USEFUL to cook in the slow cooker. Keep in mind that unless you're looking to soften tough meat, you can make almost any slow cooker recipe on the stove if you have an hour or two to babysit it. This is a book of recipes that require a lot of babysitting (adding ingredients, stirring, or doing something else in the middle of the cook time), run four to six hours, and require you to hang around the house all that time.I'm a working foodie who uses the slow cooker to make fun, interesting meals that I can leave to cook during the work day. Between the babysitting required and the less-than-8-hour cook times, I was very disappointed in the number of recipes from this book I could use at all.I highly recommend Judith Finlayson's books for a better alternative.
