4.0 out of 5 stars If it weren't for this book I wouldn't be slow cooking, November 9, 2005

By	M. McTigue - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is the best vegetarian slow cooker cookbook that I've found, though there really aren't many others. I own two vegetarian slow cooker cookbooks and this is the only one I use. In the year that I've owned this book I've made close to 30 of the recipes. The photos in the book are enticing and the recipes are easy to follow and for the most part have been flavorful and popular with my family. I especially like the spicy recipes like Caribbean Pepper Pot Soup and Red Lentil and Carrot Soup with Coconut. There have been a few duds- Cannelloni with Tomato Eggplant Sauce didn't turn out well from my slow cooker. I have come to really embrace the technique of precooking the vegetables as suggested by Finlayson since this lends much better flavor and texture to the finished dishes. I am back today to purchase a copy for my sister, also a vegetarian and soon to be a regular slow cooker.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thank goodness for this book!, May 22, 2006

By	natural mom (Phoenix, AZ USA) - See all my reviews

I am a vegetarian with two young daughters - and no time to cook. On top of that my kids are allergic to dairy and soy. I had no idea what to cook for our family and how to find the time to cook it until I found this cookbook. Every recipe I have tried so far (and there aren't that many I haven't tried) has been really good. I start the recipe the night before, stick the slow cooker insert in the refrigerator, and then pull it out and get it going in the morning. There aren't that many vegetarian slow cooker cookbooks out there, and the others I've found have been duds, but this one is a keeper!

5.0 out of 5 stars Yummy!, January 29, 2006

By	KHP (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews

I love this book! I received this book as a gift. In the month that we've had this book, we've made about 10 of the recipes from the book, and truly, all were delicious! We prepare the dishes in the evening, and the next morning we plug in the Crock-pot on our way out. We've had no disappointments with this book so far!
