1⁄4 cup unseasoned crispy bread crumbs
1⁄3 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Good book, lots of good recipes 
January 04, 2012
Lots of great ideas for recipes! I love it that it has the nutritional information on the recipe page since my husband and I are both dieting now. A lot of the recipes require only a few items that we have to go out and buy, which is nice too. Definitely worth the price!

Nice cookbook but not focused on slow cooker recipes

It's a nice book... just not what I expected.

It's Ok

Lots of Mexican and Asian recipes, not a lot of what I would consider everyday recipes, but does have a few. The pictures are great and plentiful.

A wonderful book for beginning cooks
May 13, 2011
I have always been a fair-to-good "throw-together" cook, but I've shied away from formal recipes because I don't have the patience for complicated directions.
Then I found this book. It's easy, the instructions are fairly clear, and the physical structure of the book itself is easy to handle. The Korean Barbecue Beef Stew and the Chicken Marbella are great starting points.
My only small nit: no room for step-by-step pictures in such a large book? They would have really helped.
Overall, if you want to start slow cooking, start here.

The Big Book for the WIN!
April 23, 2011
I just got this book a few days ago and I am EXTREMELY happy I bought it. I sat down with it last night to do some meal planning for the week with a handful of paper clips thinking I would mark the good recipes that I would probably make. Well I might as well marked every page. The book is full of great recipes. Easy ingredients that most people have on hand or can find readily. Clear instructions. Information on freezing if applicable. Nutritional information for every recipe. Nice since I count carbs and watch fat and salt intake. Comfort food that most will enjoy. One of the best cookbooks I have ever bought. Would recommend it to anyone who likes comfort food and home-style recipes. Every new cook should have this cookbook as well as season veterans.
