Title: Last recipe book you need to buy!!
Review: If you like Cajun food this is the book for you! The sauce piquant recipes and crawfish and shrimp recipes are amazing!! Cabbage rolls used to take all day to make and now I use the cabbage casserole recipe to make it easier. This is the only recipe book where I have actually made and loved 75% of the recipes. And they all use simple ingredients that I keep in stock already. Nothing fancy I have to buy!! I know it sounds weird to use a rice cooker for meals but this is like a crockpot that cooks in 45min or less. If you have a fancy rice cooker you need to use the rice setting, not slow cook. And if it says to cook for a certain time then I set my timer and stop the rice cooker after that so the shrimp are not overdone.My family likes meals with substance and not just rice. This book also has a lot of recipes with potatoes instead of rice. The fajita chicken stuffed baked potato recipe is great! And it just uses frozen French fries for the potato part. It doesn't get much easier than that!!This is the perfect book for someone who loves to crockpot but wants their meal done in 45 min or less! I wish I was paid or given some compensation for this review , but sadly not. My aunt gave it to me years ago and my friends are always asking where to buy it.

Title: simple to use and simply great!!
Review: I wasn't sure I'd be able to get the hang of using rice cooker for anything but rice. But as soon as this book arrived I read it from cover to cover and could hardly wait to try his recipes. This book is a little gem. With a little imagination you can easily adjust ingredients to make your recipes more spicy, less spicy, beef instead of chicken, broth instead of canned tomatoes with chiles, less butter, etc. etc. This is a no brainer. To some people it might look too plain but that's fine with me. It's just a good, easy to follow, minimum preparation, delicious collection of recipes, some of which are typical of louisiana cooking....which is what the author himself did not dispute. I have never used as many recipes out of any cookbook I own..and I own a lot!!! I'm currently going through all the recipes but so far my favorites are Shrimp Jambalaya, Black Eyed Peas & Sausage Jambalaya, Tex-Mex Pasta, Chicken fried rice, and Mexican Rice. There are also soup recipes, yams, potato and cabbage recipes but haven't tried these yet. Mr Bertrand I'm anxiously waiting for your next cookbook, if there is one, but in the meantime thanks for this one!

Title: Easy recipes
Review: The fried rice is awesome. Hubby even asked for it again. A lot of the recipes are for a larger rice cooker. I have a small one, perfect for 1 or 2 people.

Title: Who knew you could do all this with a rice cooker?
Review: My son ordered a copy for my because I was interested in their copy. I love it even though most of the dishes have either rice or pasta in them, and I am on a keto diet! I have made several of the recipes substituting cauliflower rice for regular rice, and subbing green beans or other veggies for the beans or peas. All these recipes are very flexible, so you can make a lot of different changes, and they are still very good. I love the ease of putting everything in the pot and pushing down the button. No stirring or checking recommended. I ordered 4 more copies as Christmas gifts for busy moms!

Title: Very small cookbook
Review: I was shocked at how few recipes are in this book. It’s more of a booklet and way overpriced. Unfortunately I bought two as gifts, to go with a rice cooker/multicooker. I’m hoping there are some suitable recipes for the recipients.

Title: I LOVE this cookbook!!
Review: My latest "kick" is rice cookers. I learned you can make entire delicious meals in them, not just cook rice. This cookbook makes rice cooking/entire meals easy. It's mostly a Cajun cookbook but you'll find many delicious other recipes too. I had a question, emailed the author, and he actually emailed me back with the answer!! Recipes are for 8 to 10 cup On/Off/Warm rice cookers, not for fuzzy logic cookers. Rice cooker recipes can be made in the fuzzy logic cookers but adjustments would have to be made. I'm also experimenting using olive oil instead of butter and the author has been helpful with that. I HIGHLY recommend this rice cooker cookbook for On/Off/Warm ricer cookers.

Title: Mostly Southern cooking
Review: If you live in the South this cookbook would be great. Most people do not have access to crawdads though.

Review: Rice Cooker Meals: Fast Home Cooking for Busy People - this was a great find. I only used my Rice Cooker for cooking RICE (I'd had the cooker given me without a booklet). When I found this on the Amazon site I have been able to cook much more than rice. It arrived on time and was reasonably priced.
