My Review:

I love using my crock pot. However a lot of times the meat shrinks and there is not that much food for a big family. This book is full of hearty recipes that are sure to please even the pickiest of eaters. My favorite recipes were the broccoli soup and the potato soup, although I do want to try the stuffed peppers, the apple upside down cake and the cheesecake! The recipes are easy to follow and the ingredients are easy to find. I also liked that the author included information on slow cookers. especially how to care for them. I am giving this book a 5/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own.
