Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Several months ago, I discovered slow cooking through my local library. I borrowed some books and purchased a 4 QT. Hamilton Beach slow cooker (which I really like!). Because I have cut way down on my salt intake, I am sensitive to excess sodium and try to avoid recipes that include processed food. So, I was very excited when the "500 Heart-Healthy Slow Cooker Recipes" book came out. I have tried several of the recipes (and am cooking one right now -- and it smells great!)...and I'd say that this book is very good but... I feel that one piece of information is missing...none of the recipes indicate what size cooker is recommended (for each recipe).
Since I am fairly new to slow cooking, I find it extremely helpful to know what size cooker I need to use (before I start putting ingredients in). In one recipe, I ran out of room and had to leave an ingredient out. In another recipe, I guessed right that it needed less than a 2 QT cooker, but it's really best not to have to make these guesses. Plus all the other slow cooker books that I have include this information.
To the author and publisher -- please include the recommended slow cooker size when you print the second edition. To anyone considering this book...if you're a good judge of cooker size, just by reading the recipe, you won't be disappointed in adding this book to your collection -- I still give it a thumbs up!
