I have a shelf full of cookbooks and several slow cooker specific books. I usually consider a cookbook worth the money if it gives me one really great recipe that becomes a regular staple of my cooking repertoire. I consider a cookbook a success if there are two or three that are particularly great. This cookbook has exceeded any expectation I have. Every recipe I have made has been phenomenal, packed with flavor, very easy to make, and worthy of making again and again. The tortilla soup is restaurant-worthy!
I’m not a vegetarian, but one of my best friends is. When we cook together, we go veggie. She owns this book and loves it, and I’m ordering a copy to have at my house, because some of these recipes are so good, even a committed meat-eater will love. If all vegetarian food tasted like these recipes, I wouldn’t miss meat.

I saw this at a friend’s home and had to have it. I am really happy with the recipes I have tried and look forward to more!

I got this book as a present for my daughter on the strength of the top review and I am extremely disappointed with it. It is not a book for the serious vegetarian, nor does it have any really interesting combinations of flavors, herbs or spices. It relies greatly for flavor from cheese and tomato – okay occasionally, but very middle-of-the-road, no-risk cooking. It even uses mayonnaise in one sauce! Reminds me of a middle-western 1950s menu or something from Betty Crocker (cranberry-apricot upside down cake, cheesy rice & mushroom casserole); perhaps good for someone who has not much experience with vegetarianism or adventurous cooking, but not much interest for someone who’s looking for a little style. Also, the cookbook doesn’t have a particular focus – attempting to present dishes that are Mexican, Indian, Tuscan, Middle Eastern, Asian, etc., but each lacking the integrity of that particular cuisine. Also, some bean recipes require cooking beans for 10 hours, then another 10 hours with additional ingredients. This seems over the top to me – I cook beans for a few hours, then add other ingredients for an hour or so & they’re ready to eat & delicious.
Really I’m sorry I bought it but it’s too late to return, so I will give it & return it for something else after Christmas.

I find that many of these recipes taste the same, because she has a few ingrediants that she calls for over and over: eggplant, mushrooms, cumin. Ho hum. Plus, there is one MAJOR mistake on page 106 — in the Three Bean Chili with Bulghar, there should only be one (1) tsp of chili powder (or less), not 2 TBSP as it calls for! Despite my gut feeling that this was wrong, I followed her instructions, but had to freeze the entire batch I made, it was INEDIBLE (and we like spicy foods). Now when I make a chili, I scoop out about 1 cup of the frozen way-too-spicy chili and add it as the spice. I should be doing this for months…

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.
