review 1: The words "Vegetarian" and "Slow Cooker" drew me to purchasing this book. I honestly didn't spend too much time flicking through the recipes before buying it. I liked that the meals were divided into regions of the world, and most of them sounded delicious, so I just went ahead and brought it home. Unfortunately upon further inspection, I was a little disappointed. While I must hasten to add that I have yet to try any of the recipes, and therefore cannot vouch for their deliciousness...a lot of the recipes are complex, or involve cook time in the slow cooker before finishing up the dish on the stove, or involve a lot of extra prep. This is not what I am looking for when I want slow cooker/crock pot recipes. I look for easy meals where I can throw everything into the pot ... moreand leave it for 8 hours while I'm at work, and come home to a finished meal. However, I will update this review once I've tried some of the recipes, and see how well I like them.
review 2: made a few recipes from this book - chili, curried chickpeas, potatoes and peas in curry sauce. they were pretty tasty, though I wouldn't say these are throw ingredients in the morning and forget about them recipes. they all required you to add things hours before you were done, so maybe better for weekends? or if you work from home? the ones I tried came out good, but I always thought they needed some salt at the end. less
