Slow Cooker: The Best Cookbook Ever More details on this book's website

In Slow Cooker: The Best Cookbook Ever, author Diane Phillips presents an impressive collection of over 400 mouth-watering recipes punctuated by beautiful photography by James Baigrie.

Thinking about buying a slow cooker? Phillips explains how the slow cooker can save you time and money, while still serving your family nutritious and delicious meals. Turn to the introduction and find helpful advice for choosing a slow cooker and stocking your cupboards. Already have a slow cooker? You’ll never want to put it away once you see how much you can really do with it.

When I think about slow cooking, I reminisce about my childhood. Coming home from school on a winter day, the air thick with the aroma of chicken stew -- it's a memory I cherish dearly. With Phillips' slow cooker guide, you’ll learn there is so much more you can still learn to do with your slow cooker. Whether you’re making breakfast, lunch or dinner; appetizers, side dishes or main courses; drinks or dessert; this book has it all: soups, chili, casseroles, eggs, chicken, turkey, fish, beef, pork, lamb, veggies, sauces and more. It's a cornucopia of slow cooker delights.

The last chapter, Party in a Pot, has some delicious, larger-yield recipes for entertaining. Not only will your guests be greeted by the inviting scents of your home cooking, dinner will be cooking itself, allowing you to relax and enjoy your family and friends, rather than doing the mad dash in the kitchen.

Here are some delicious recipes the book has to offer:

Spinach Parmesan Strata
Creamy Loaded Baked-Potato Soup
Butternut Squash Braised with Thyme and Cider

Slow Cooker: The Best Cookbook Ever really is a must-have if you want to make the most out of your slow cooker. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to make gourmet meals in your slow cooker.
