Soup

cooking light books are full of quality reciepes with easy to make mouth watering food. i have many and enjoy them all.

So far I've had this product for a month and everything turns out so nice. My husband is a "meat and potatoes" kind of guy and he has really enjoyed many of the soups as well, as they are filling and tasty! I'm a big fan of all cooking light cookbooks and also purchased their Slow Cooker Recipes book at the same time as this one and it is equally as delicous and quick to prepare. For anyone who likes quick, easy, healthy, or unique - you will enjoy these two books.

Here is the Cooking Light 57 essential recipes for slow cooking. As other slow cooking cookbooks, this covers the bases: appetizers, desserts, main dishes, etc. The layout is exceptional: clean with two pages per recipe, with one page full color photo. Other nice feature (especially for the cook not too familiar with certain ingredients or techniques) is a highlighted ingredient or technique, e.g. water bath, kitchen shears, rice wine vinegar, etc. So far tried the following and turned out remarkably nice, easy to prepare and equally nice to dine: Turkey Thights with Olives and Dried Cherries; Pesto Lasagna with Spinach and Mushrooms; Chicken with Figs and Lemons; Fudgy Caramel Pudding Cake; Thai-Style Pork Stew. This is not meant to be an exhaustive collection for slow cooker, but the pick of the crop, what the editors have determined to be 'essential' recipes for the slow cooker. Nice to have in collection.

I received this as a gift and have already given it to others. I have several other slow cooker cookbooks and this one is my favorite. So far we've made the black bean with corn bread on top dish and the beef stroganoff which are both on the "top favorite recipe list". Looking forward to trying more recipes in the book!

I love this book. Wonderful and easy recipes that are very healthy. Highly recommend.
