Book Description

April 29, 2003
In today’s fast-paced world, convenience is a key ingredient to any good recipe. With Pillsbury Doughboy Slow-Cooker Recipes—and a little bit of planning ahead—you can serve savory meals that took “hours” to cook and still have time to spend with your family. For success in your kitchen, the Pillsbury Kitchens have double-tested each recipe in various slow cookers. Check out the introduction, which is packed with helpful information, from how to adapt your favorite recipes to food safety and cooking at high altitude. And, with more than sixty mouthwatering color photographs, you can almost smell the wonderful aromas!

There’s a reason these are called “fix-and-forget” recipes. The recipes require minimal, easy preparation, and while you spend the day in class, at work, running errands, or driving carpool, the slow cooker does all the work. When you come home, a bubbling, fragrant, one-pot meal is ready and waiting! And the slow cooker is useful all year round—in the warmer months, this small appliance won’t heat up your entire kitchen the way an oven does.

You’ll find chapters starting with Meaty Main Dishes, like Caramelized Onion Pot Roast, and ending with Very Easy Vegetables and Sides, like family-favorite Au Gratin Potatoes and Onion. In between are Busy-Day Chicken and Turkey, with recipes like Thai Peanut Chicken, which is great for casual entertaining; Super Soups, Stews and Chilies, including Spicy Vegetarian Chili; and Slow-Cooked Sandwiches, like So-Easy Sloppy Joes. With this much variety, you are certain to please everyone in the family.

Each of the 140 easy-to-follow recipes includes a useful sidebar with a tip for serve-with items, suggestions on how the kids can help, or ideas to make it special. Set the table, whip up a fast salad or side dish, if you like, and sit down with your family to a real home-cooked meal. When a hot, hearty meal is what’s needed, Pillsbury Doughboy Slow Cooker Recipes is just the ticket!

5.0 out of 5 stars Pillsbury + Slow Cooker = YUMM!, May 4, 2003
By 
Daniel F. Moore (Yarmouth, Maine USA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Pillsbury Doughboy Slow Cooker Recipes (Hardcover)
I have a cookbook collection that exceeds five hundred titles. Ten of my books are from Pillsbury and I have never been disappointed. When I received a card from Pillsbury announcing the newest in their collection, I immediately ordered it.

Pillsbury and the slow cooker are a great match. The recipes are easy to put together with ingredients that you probably have on hand or are readily available, and what could be easier than cooking in a slow cooker? I have already prepared several of the recipes and I am looking forward to trying more of them. The Turkey and Bacon Wild Rice Casserole was a big hit. Hearty Steak and Tater Soup brought ooh's and aah's at work too. The slow cooker is particularly good with lean cuts of beef. For this, try Beef Brisket with Cranberry Gravy or Carmelized Onion Pot Roast. Actually try them BOTH as they are scrumptious!

For readers new to using a slow cooker, Pillsbury shares ten 'secrets' for using the appliance successfully. There are five sections in the book covering main dishes, poultry, soups, stews and chiles, sandwiches and vegetables and side dishes. There are 140 recipes in total and many have illustrations. Each recipe is accompanied by Nutritional Information and a sidebar offering tips and serving suggestions.

Although a bit smaller than some of the other books in the collection, the Pillsbury Doughboy Slow Cooker Recipes is outstanding in quality. It's a big hit in my kitchen...it will be one of your favorites as well!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Very similar to Betty Crocker's!, October 16, 2003
By 
David Tarbell (Port Orchard, WA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Pillsbury Doughboy Slow Cooker Recipes (Hardcover)
While this is a fine cookbook, my wife and I were startled to find that many of the recipes contained herein are virtually identical or very similar to ones found in "Betty Crocker's Slow Cooker" book. Even some of the pictures are the same!

Our advice: buy one or the other, but not both.
