Summary: Fabulous Meals 2008-10-13
Comment: This book I bought for a friend because I love mine soooo much. I have another "popular" veggie crock pot book and it doesn't come close to the fabulous dishes in Judith's book. EVERY recipe I've cooked has been a hit. The dishes are very flavorful and attractive. Judith is a master at mixing interesting combinations and has a flair with herbs and spices. Every new dish becomes "this is the best thing you've made so far". Many of the dishes call for precooking some veggies and spices to maximize flavors - these are so delicious, I don't mind taking a few minuets to do that. Rave review and I haven't even tried the desserts yet! A great gift for people you care about - healthy, delicious and beautiful meals!

Summary: Great, easy to use book 2008-08-01
Comment: You don't need any weird ingredients to follow the recipes in this book. I have a slow cooker with stoneware that I can use on stove-top, in the microwave and in the oven. Therefore I do not mind that the recipes include prep steps. I put my onions in my stoneware, place it on the stove and then I place it in the slow cooker and I'm done. And the food tastes so much better when you follow the prep steps. Overall a real good vegetarian slow cooker book.

Summary: Disappointing 2008-05-14
Comment: I'll admit, any vegetarian cookbook with "slow cooker" in the title is a must for me; however, this cookbook was disappointing. Most receipes require "pre cooking" and there were but a handful of actually delicious items. It's not that crucial to have, and for goodness sake don't pay full price for it.

Summary: Great recipes for stressed working parents! 2008-04-16
Comment: Great book for working parents who want healthy families! True, there is some precooking required for recipes, but every good slow-cooker recipe out there requires SOME preparation...I usually do the prep while I'm getting dinner ready the night before, then refrigerate overnight and pop it in the slow cooker as I'm walking out the door (most recipes work this way). It's great to come home to the smell of dinner cooking, and knowing you have very little left to do to get dinner on the table!
For those with the larger cookers, like my oval Corning, get a timer to get it right. My first attempt at the mushroom lasagne was overcooked. Got it right the next time with the timer. Lesson learned. The kids LOVED it!
