Although the last half of the book is basically recipes for potatoes and puddings and could use more variety, the first half has a great selection of interesting vegetarian stuff, and not all of it is for the crockpot, despite the title.

However, the 2 recipes I made (Kashmiri vegetables and 3 veggie kugel) didn't turn out to be as flavor-packed as I had hoped. They weren't terrible-tasting. In fact, I'm eating them for lunch and dinner this week. But the kugel turned out too oily and not crispy

It's not to say I couldn't fiddle with the recipes and get them to where I'd like, or use other recipes from the book and get great results. Much of my disappointment is definitely a personal preference thing. I think I'm giving up on the crockpot as a cooking option because I never like what happens in there (with the exception of apple butter. a recipe not found in this book.) You can find me over at the stove with my dutch oven, thanks very much.

Lots of good sounding eats, but a misleading title. The book has a lot of recipes that aren't slow cooker, just slow to cook. I was specifically looking for slow cooker recipes. I did find it a bit clutter-y to read, as it is a British book and all the measurements are given in Metric/US/Australian, so it it felt a bit jumbled up.

Again, lots of good sounding, but slow to cook food. I don't have 3 or 4 hours to cook dinner. I'd call them special occasion recipes, just due to the time they would

This was a pretty average cookbook with some really great recipes, but the majority are very basic. My one complaint about the book is the misleading title. A more accurate title would be 175 Slow COOKED Vegetarian Recipes. This is definitely not a slow cooker recipe book as I've come to expect them to be, approximately 50% of the recipes are to be cooked in a slow cooker while the others utilize slow cooking in the oven or on the stove top.

Maybe I am just a dum-dum, but almost all of these recipes required an oven and some skillet timez, which is why I am looking for a book using a slow cooker. It promised to use a slow cooker sometimes, but all the recipes I was interested in were all "preheat your oven". Pass.
