The best cookbook ever!

I love this cookbook!! I use it at least 2 times a week. The ingredient in these recipes are easy to stock in your pantry and the tips are wonderful. I haven't found a cookbook for my slow cooker I like more.

Great cookbook!

I've never purchased any of the Gooseberry Patch cookbooks before. I love this cookbook. They are all "down to earth" recipes that my family will actually eat! :-) Thanks!

Gooseberry Patch has done it again

Can one ever have too many cookbooks? Nope...not when they have the homespun flavor of Gooseberry Patch added to them. I collect these cookbooks and enjoy their recipes as well....another addiction...and my husband really enjoys this one, cause he gets to eat the rewards! Try this one...it is a time saver...and gives a savory meal to boot!

Slow Cooker Recipes (Gooseberry Patch)

I gave this cookbook as a Christmas gift. My friend loves the fact that it gives you lots of great recipes plus she really likes the tips that are given at the bottom of the page. She can't wait to cook some really great meals in 2008!

I love Gooseberry Patch books

First, let me say that I am a HUGE Gooseberry Patch fan. Currently I own six of their books: Slow Cooker Recipes, Best-Ever Casseroles, What's for Dinner?, Come on Over, One-Pot Meals and From Grandma's Kitchen. I just LOVE the books. The recipes are very easy, not too fancy, don't take long and always taste good. They are easy to read and the spiral binding keeps the books open flat. I think out of all of the books, I have only made one thing that I didn't care for. They are just great, great books to have around and I love the little tips on each page, the way that every book is broken up by meats and categories and just all of the other little helpful charts and equivalents that are in each book. In my opinion, they are just great additions to any cookbook collection and I love having them in my kitchen. For this book, Slow Cooker Recipes, I have only made one recipe so far since it is a fairly new purchase for me, and it was Spanish rice. I am making my second today from it, Saucy Potatoes and Ham, and it just really has a lot of basic recipes for the slow cooker. Don't get me wrong, I have a lot of fancy slow cooker books as well, but sometimes you just want to throw the food in and go and have a nice hot comforting meal at the end of the day and not have to create a sauce, braise the meat, etc, etc, etc. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking for a nice, well-rounded slow cooker book to add to their collection.
