My Review:
This is not a regular slow cooker cookbook! This is a guide to making some more unique meals in the slow cooker.
Some of the things included in this cookbook, are Breakfast recipes, recipes the use local, fresh ingredients that you might get at the Farmer’s market, Ethnic meals, Easy and fast to throw together meals, really simple meals and of course things for parties! There is also things for special diets like Vegetarian, Vegan, dairy and gluten free recipes included in this book. It is a fun slow cooker book and one that I am looking forward to trying some of the recipes!
I thought Spaghetti squash tacos was a unique sounding recipe that caught my eye….but also how to raise your pizza dough in the crock pot!! Coconut Chicken Curry is going to be on the menu sometime soon too!
This is a great cookbook with a wire bound binding, so it lays flat while you are cooking! -Martha
It is time for a FIRST Wild Card Tour book review! If you wish to join the FIRST blog alliance, just click the button. We are a group of reviewers who tour Christian books. A Wild Card post includes a brief bio of the author and a full chapter from each book toured. The reason it is called a FIRST Wild Card Tour is that you never know if the book will be fiction, non~fiction, for young, or for old…or for somewhere in between! Enjoy your free peek into the book!
You never know when I might play a wild card on you!
