Each of the more than 200 recipes in this book is made with seven or fewer easy-to-find, grocery store ingredients. Most can be prepared in less than ten minutes. The preparation can even be done the night before and the entire slow cooker placed in the refrigerator until morning.

From exquisite cakes with warm berries oozing down the sides to hearty soups, creamy chowders, and delicious entrees complete with side dishes prepared in the same pot, Busy People’s Slow Cooker Cookbook is a creative collection of low-fat recipes that look and taste as if you have been working all day in the kitchen.
Each recipe in Busy People’s Slow Cooker Cookbook is complete with nutritional information, preparation time, and cooking time, along with helpful hints and money-saving ideas. It is bound in an easy-to-use hardcover concealed spiral binding.

I LOVE THESE COOKBOOKS AND THIS IS A GREAT PRICE. I PAID MORE FOR MY OWN THESE WERE ACTUALLY GIFTS. I HATE THAT I BOUGHT MINE AT FULL PRICE.

I returned this book. I tried the turkey and stuffing recipe, and the stuffing was soggy and mushy. Alot of the recipes call for fat-free ingredients that aren’t available in Canada.

This would be excellent for those on a reducing diet because of the inedible messes it serves up, which reminded me of my mother’s best efforts before the advent of slow cookers, and all of us were certainly thin. If the recipes in this cookbook don’t put you off slow cooker cooking for sometime to come, you’re a hardier soul than my husband and I. The author without fail recommends canned meat products, on the BOTTOM of the slow cooker, a variety of canned items on top, and cooking the whole business to death for hours. Literally, a recipe for disaster and failed nutrition. We thought there was something wrong with us and that slow cooker cooking was always this bad, wondered how anybody could stand it. Then after a hiatus of several years, we came across some truly wonderful slow cooker recipes from other sources. TWO THUMBS DOWN.

I was given this cookbook as a gift. I had always thought slow cookers were only used for soups and stews. This book showed me that I could use the slow cooker for so much more! I have three picky-eaters and a full-time job, and the recipes are easy, inexpensive, and delicious! My children will actually eat this food! Our favorite recipes include barbeque chicken, turkey and dressing, Mexican Goulash, and cherry upside down cake. I highly recommend this cookbook and have already bought copies for my friends and family.

I teach nutrition classes. This cookbook has a variety of recipes and techniques. I hadn’t ever “baked” a cake in my slow cooker before…the Black Forest Upside-Down Cake is really good! There are several other recipes that I’ve tried & then had classes try. My biggest concern is with the amount of sodium. Some of the products used “by name brands” are not found in our area. I haven’t had any problems with substituting those products. I’m sending one of these books to a Granddaughter and will use the others as incentive gifts for my cooking classes.
