Book Reviews of Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Cookbook
Book Review: Lots of recipes, No pictures
Summary: 3 Stars
The book is much bigger than I thought it would be. Many recipes are crammed on the pages. I prefer cookbooks with pictures and with only one recipe per page. I like that the recipes are not a variation of the norm. Until I purchase a crockpot that can be programmed for a specific number of hours, I will not be able to try many of the recipes because they are for less than the 8-10 hours that I can program my current crockpot.Book Review: Look before you buy
Summary: 3 Stars
Since this is a cookbook, I should have looked through a copy before I purchased. Many of the recipes do not feature a full day of cooking in the crockpot. Therefore, they can't be used on a workday.Book Review: Cookbook
Summary: 3 Stars
Nothing real special - a lot of these or very similar recipes you can get for free onlineBook Review: Is ketchup a recipe ingredient to you?
Summary: 2 Stars
Your answer to the question will determine whether you like this book. I almost purchased this book, and then found it at the library to look at first. I found 4 recipes that I would consider making. One recipe (but not one of the 4) listed ketchup as a recipe ingredient, and others listed similar prepared processed sauces likely to have lots of sugar. Its probably fine for someone using the crock pot to save time and bother - but I like to know the ingredients, and ketchup doesn't cut it for me.Book Review: There's more to good food than adding weird kinds of alcohol...
Summary: 1 Stars
The "not your mother's" part of this book is that all the recipes involve some kind of weird liquor that you probably don't have in the house. Other than that, the recipes are fairly bland.
