The 150 Best Slow Cooker Recipes

If you have a slow cooker buy this book. We bought it for all our relatives that have a slow cooker and they all loved it (if giving it as a present I'd recommend wrapping it with a tin of Campbell's condensed chicken soup and a tin of Baxter's beef consomme as these are the most frequently used liquid ingredients)

I recently purchased a slow cooker and needed a little inspiration as I thought you could only cook meals like meat casseroles with lots of pulses. How wrong could I be? This is a great book to knock up some delicious feasts and although most of the ingredients are listed in American measures, the alternative 'ml' measurements are on the opposite side of the page. Must trys are the 'Chicken Enchilladas', Beef Noodle Casserole with Chedder Crumb Topping, Carribeen Pok Roast with Rum and Lamb Keema. There are nine chapters ranging from Appetisers & Fondues, Soups, Vegetarian dishes to Desserts which include cheesecakes!!! A must book for anyone who wants some inspiration for their slow cooker. I am working my way through the book much to my family's delight.

This book rekindled the love of our slow cooker. There are some wonderful recipes in here. Pork Columbo, Chinese chicken, pork chops florentine... all delicious.

It's amazing how little liquid is added to the dish before starting, but this book has it spot on every time.

If you've got a slow cooker and you've exhausted the standard winter stew concoctions, get this book.

I am really delighted with this book. It has the type of recipes that you just know will be great when you read them, ranging from simple comfort food to the exotic, although I found none of the ingredients difficult to locate. I also loved that the recipes were written in metric and imperial, and there are a lot of interesting tips and tricks for the slow cooker included. I would highly reccommend it to anyone.

I recently bought this book when I rediscovered my slow cooker in a box in the loft. We have tried over a dozen of the recipes so far and they have all been absolutely delicious. Each recipe is packed full of scrummie flavours. The recipes require a certain amount of preparation before you can put them in the slow cooker - so you either need to plan some extra time in the morning or each recipe tells you how to prepare the dish the previous evening - then you just chill it overnight and switch it on in the morning. The house smells delicious when you get home! I would thoroughly recommend this book.
