Fix-It and Forget-It Lazy and Slow Cookbook: 365 Days of Slow Cooker Recipes
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
“What's for dinner?" It's the question every parent dreads. It's a daunting challenge to put a meal on the table every evening—never mind one that's healthy, economical, and that the whole family will enjoy. The Lazy and Slow Cookbook: 365 Days of Slow Cooker Recipes is the first in a new series of cookbooks for the lazy—or busy—cook in the household. For every week of the year, there's a menu featuring seven dinners, along with a shopping list. As a bonus, QR codes allow cooks to load the list directly to their smart phones. The first recipe for the week is a slow cooker meal that's large enough to yield leftovers that can be incorporated into the recipes for the next 2–3 dinners.
Enjoy a roast chicken (made in the slow cooker) on Sunday evening, individual chicken pot pies on Monday, and chicken and vegetable soup on Tuesday! Suggestions for side dishes are also included, as well as special menus for the holidays, birthdays, and other celebrations. You'll also find slow cooker desserts, such as mango-coconut pudding and chocolate-almond bar cookies.
Having dinner with the family has never been easier! There's no reason to spend hours in the kitchen when you can let your slow cooker do most of the work for you. And there's no reason to spend your weekend planning menus when author Abigail Gehring has done it for you!

Comerford (A Busy Mom’s Slow Cooker Adventures blogger) gives the slow cooker another workout with 150 summertime recipes for entertaining. Selections include meatballs (sweet and sour, honey, and chipotle orange), as well as creamy artichoke or cheesy Mexican–flavored dips. Barbecue flavor dominates in pulled chicken and pulled pork sandwiches, multiple brisket dishes, and in the six preparations for ribs included. Comerford covers the standbys: mac and cheese, sloppy Joes, and tacos (including a lentil variation). Simple crowd-pleasing vegetable sides include corn on the cob bathed in chili lime butter, or yogurt and cheese twice-baked potatoes; desserts are fruit-based cobblers, puddings, or dump cakes. Comerford provides serving suggestions along with excellent tips on how to determine cooking times and adjust cooking (“If you’d like your dish to thicken a bit, take the lid off during the last half hour to hour of cooking time”). With the slow cooker as the workhorse and Comerford’s helpful guide, home cooks can count on stress-free summertime entertaining.

Home cooks on the road with limited storage and prep space are the intended audience for food blogger Comerford’s (Fix-It and Forget-It Holiday Favorites) collection of 150 simple recipes for the slow cooker solicited from fans. The slow cooker’s ease of use—the very definition of “fix-it and forget-it”—makes it a terrific choice for preparing dishes while traveling, as Comerford’s followers show time and again with dishes that often call for fewer than five ingredients, among them honey chicken thighs, chili-lime corn on the cob, sloppy joes, pulled pork, and a chocolate peanut butter swirl dump cake. This simplicity occasionally borders on the ludicrous, with “recipes” for Sweet N Sour Meatballs, consisting of frozen meatballs, grape jelly, and chili sauce; barbecued cocktail sausages (four packages of cocktail sausages and a bottle of barbecue sauce); chili-cheese taco dip (a pound of Velveeta, browned beef, and a can of chili); and hot dogs, in which readers are instructed to fill their slow cooker with as many hot dogs as they’d like and cook, then “serve in hot dog buns with your favorite toppings.” While the recipes themselves are thin, this volume just might be the answer to those traveling on a tight budget.
