Title: (UPDATED Oct. 7, 2017) The Cookbook That Reawakened a Love of Slow Cooking With Lots Of TASTY Gluten-Free Recipes
Review: One word: YUM.I rediscovered slow cooking last fall and fell in love with it over the winter. I got a Proctor-Silex 33043 4-Quart Slow Cooker ($15!!) in late fall and it got me back into it. Later I got a 360 Cookware Gourmet Slow Cooker to review. It's nice but not $200+ nicer than the Proctor Silex. I think some recipes tasted a tiny bit better in the expensive one but I'd recommend saving that money for excellent ingredients. But that's background. Pardon my digression and back to the cook book!I got the Everything Gluten-Free Slow Cooker Cookbook because I'm living gluten-free (mostly) and the leg of lamb and the lamb with garlic, lemon and rosemary sounded great. But there is so much more. Next I went with the Yankee Pot Roast, then the BBQ Western Ribs and Mexican Port Roast... And that's just the beef lamb and pork chapters. You don't have to be living gluten-free to find a lot to like in this cookbook! For for anyone living gluten-free it's a recipe treasure trove.In the last year I've tried way less than half the recipes. Not all of the recipes appeal to me which isn't surprising. It's nice that so many DO. There is a lot in this cookbook with enough variety for almost anyone. Best of all it's a great starting point to experiment.Many other slow cooker cookbooks target 6 quart big family slow cookers. I like how book's recipes are mostly sized for a 4 quart like mine or smaller. This is great for folks living alone, couples or small families. Bigger isn't always better!Here in New England slow cooking is more of a winter thing for me. Thinking about it there is a lot to like with slow cooking in the summer too. After all, what could be better for a care-free summer than care-free slow cooking while you are having fun outside?The Everything Gluten-Free Slow Cooker Cookbook helped me rediscover the joy of slow cooking and get out of a culinary rut. For that and some very tasty recipes I'm giving it 5 stars.I hope this helps someone!UPDATE Mar 16, 2017:It's been about 2 years since I got the Everything Gluten-Free Slow Cooker Cookbook. I tried most of the appealing recipes and not been once disappointed. It's been fun to experiment too - for me recipes, after the first successful meal, become more a starting point for experimentation and embellishmentIt's been fun but there is a possible downside: I've gone up a good dress size since I got this cook book. Depending on your point of view that could be either an endorsement or a warning!But seriously... I've been very pleased and during the winters this is my most used cookbook. If you are gluten-free and an avid slow-cooker this a good purchase.UPDATE Oct 7, 2017:Fall is here and I've kicked off my slow cooker season with the Tomato Braised Pork. OMG is it good! After 2 winters of slow cooking and there are still lots of recipes I've not tried yet. This one is so good and the pork so tender. I'll be making this again before too long!I should mention that I got the Kindle version of the cookbook.I like how it takes up zero physical space in my smallish home and is available on my very old original Kindle as well as my newer fire tablets, PC, iPhone and from almost any web browser. That's just about anywhere. And I can't misplace it either! My only ongoing concern is in the kitchen: I am a little afraid of spilling something and destroying my tablet. All considered the kindle edition on a color screen is just about perfect for me.

Title: Love this cookbook
Review: I was recently diagnosed with celiac. I had been mostly gluten free for a couple years before my diagnosis. Now I am much more committed to a gluten free diet. I don't have a lot of energy or patience for difficult recipes. So this book has been awesome. The recipes are easy to follow and don't take a master chef to create the foods. If you don't have the exact ingredients on hand, it's easy to substitute and still have the food turn out tasty. I agree with other reviewers-- that I didn't realized how much can actually be made in a crock pot/slow cooker. I used to use it mostly for soups and stews.The recipes I have tried so far (including the Peruvian Roast Chicken with Red Potatoes) are delicious and beautiful. Even my gluten-loving boyfriend has commented on how good the dishes are.

Title: Made 5 recipes on the first day
Review: I am really liking this cookbook. On the first day of owning it, I made the Roast Chicken, the Beef Broth, the Swedish Meatballs, the Hearty Bolognese Sauce and the Steamed Spaghetti Squash.I am one who makes things ahead and either has them for the week, or freezes them to use at a later date.I hope to test out the majority of the recipes included in this book in the future.I'm very happy that I purchased it.The chicken fell of that bone which is what I wanted. Don't expect a whole chicken cooked in a slow cooker to look elegant on a platter served at the dining room table. The meat was tender, juicy and fully cooked.The Beef Broth is low fat and flavorful. It did not make 4 cups as stated, but still worth making.The Swedish Meatballs are to die for. Enough said. :)The Hearty Bolognese sauce is still in the cooker so I don't have an opinion on that yet, but it looks and smells good.Lastly the Steamed Spaghetti Squash was easy and of course not watery at all.

Title: The chocolate cake alone is worth buying the book!
Review: I have only prepared about 5 recipes in this book. The truth is you don't really NEED a specific gluten free cookbook to prepare foods in your crock pot. But the price was so nice, I thought I'd give it a try. I have made her Dijon Beef Roast 3 times now. Honestly the roast isn't spectacular served as a roast. It's rather dry. However, sliced up thin and served as sandwiches with au jus, as recommended in the book, it is FANTASTIC!! Also, the chocolate cake is SO GOOD. I made that just as described, and I served it warm with mini chocolate chips on top, and it was delicious!! I have also made the roast chicken, a standby in my house now. Just like any cookbook, there are some duds (like a recipe for coconut curry chicken with rice thrown in-horrid!). But overall I like the book and am very pleased with the price and some new favorites I've gotten out of it so far.

Review: Very interesting read. Front section contains a lot of interesting information. I have tried several of the recipes and they taste great. Some recipes ask for different types of gluten free flours which would cost a fortune if you purchased all the different types. I am trying to substitute the flours with what I already have to keep costs down. All in all a great book to add to your collection. Delivery a little slow but worth the wait!
