Not cost effectively to he book esc amazing but not much I would use. There is great ideas and thoughts. Thought out well and hope to review more from you.
This was a nice cook book to try. I've been vegan for I think almost 4 years now and it's always nice to try new recipes. I don't own a slow cooker so i mainly just took inspiration from the recipes and adapted them onto pans and pots.
The layout of the book is very pleasing to the eye and the little suggestions on how to pre-prepare ingredients were a nice touch as well.
Thank you to Netgalley for providing a copy in exchange for an honest review.
I enjoy a vegan cookbook and if you like plant based eating, chances are this is worth a shot as there aren’t many vegan slow cooker cookbooks available.
Lovely recipe book for anyone looking to spice up the kitchen. Great for vegans and non-vegans alike...who doesn't like experimenting with new flavors in the kitchen? This one will give my slow cooker a workout.
The Vegan Slow Cooker, is a great cook book for a busy vegan person. The recipes are easy to make. easy directions. start it in the morning, and by the time you comeback home you have a yummy healthy delicious meal
Great addition to any cookbook collection. For those looking to use their slow cooker in new ways, and looking to either change their diet to full vegan or even just changing some of their meals a week to be vegan.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to read and review this book because the digital edition expired and the title was archived here on the Netgalley site. Please consider making a Kindle version available for reviewers.
I did not realize that one can make so many things in slow cooker. This is a easy to follow, well explained, practical and beautifully illustrated book. So much in one book!!
There are many recipes all vegan but also catering for people with extending dietary needs such as gluten free, soy free and no oil option.
I never though of making Asian meals or for that matter pizzas in my slow cooker, and this book shows you that you are not limited to casseroles and soups. I have already found a favorite that I have been look to make for ages - Shitake Congee - yum
This book covers many aspects of meals from yes soups and casseroles, and including bread, desserts, cake and everything in between. The beginning cover some information and sensible advise on starting off with a slow cooker.
Very good book
Good recipes, but honestly I don't own a slow cooker. When I read recipe books I love when they have lots of photographs, and this one... didn't really have that many.
As a vegetarian I am always looking for slow cooker recipes and this book provides such a wide variety of options. This book contains meals that cover breakfast, mains, sides, desserts, and even soup. And there are not just many types of meals but the recipes range from Asian soups to southern side dishes. So any meal you are looking for there is a recipe for you in this book.
Now I will say that if you avoid soy or meat replacements you would need to alter a decent portion of these recipes. That is not a problem for me and I can't wait to make about a quarter of this book. I might break my crock pot with all the use I will get out of it now. It will be nice to make more than vegetarian chili for once,
Great recipes. Easy to follow. I really enjoyed this book and plan to make many of the recipes for my family.
The Vegan Slow Cooker, Revised and Expanded is a great cookbook. It features lots of delicious recipes and staples of everyday cooking. The layout and photos are amazing too.
This is a great addition to vegan cookbooks. I often find that vegan recipes involve a lot of steps or very different foods that you don't often have on hand; this book was very easy and approachable and the recipes tasted delicious! I am a full time working mother of two small girls and I loved that I could prepare it beforehand and have supper ready after work, instead of having to rush and try to prepare something, Great for busy families. Definitely recommend!
I love that this book exists! I had yet to use my slow cooker, but as a vegetarian who only cooks vegan, this book is a dream come true! It is so beautiful and has so many great recipes! I can't wait to work my way through it
I am a strict vegan so this cookbook is perfect for me. I thoroughly enjoyed reading and making the recepies from the book. I particularly liked the breakfast section as breakfast is something I always struggle to make due to time constraints, however the convenience of waking up to apple, cinnamon and oats to take on the go is a winner (as well as all the other breakfast treats). Great book and thanks to the publisher and Netgalleyfor allowing me the privilege to have an advance review copy.
I was really excited to read this as I love collecting Vegan cookbooks to try out. In a lot of ways, this book delivered. It had recipes that sound delicious and I loved the additional recipes for common sauces and meats that are also vegan. I also enjoyed how each recipe also specified if it was gluten-free or soy-free and no added oil. That makes it very user friendly for those who may be sensitive to gluten or soy.
However, for the cons, there are no nutritional facts, which I always see as a disadvantage in any cookbook. And there are not near enough pictures. The pictures that are in the book are beautiful and look fantastic, but I really wanted there to be more! It is hard to get excited about food I can't see and when most of the book doesn't have pictures, that is a big letdown to me. It makes it hard to compete with other cookbooks that do have beautiful pictures throughout.
The book was just so beautifully done and the recipes seemed so appealing that I'm not knocking off as many stars as I may usually do for the cons, but I really hope more beautiful pictures get added as I would love to see many of the other recipes throughout!!
I am so excited to have this recipe book. Sometimes being vegan for my family means we get stuck in some ruts with meal planning just repeating a handful of the same meals. Being a busy family we can’t spend a lot of time with meal prep either which also makes the slow cooker such a great option,
This cookbook has so many different vegan recipes! Two recipes I’m looking forward to trying first are Thai Red Curry Tofu and Veggies and Potato Stuffed Chile Rellenos!
Thank you to Quarto Publishing Group and NetGalley for this exciting new vegan cookbook in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are my own.
I'm a huge fan of the slow cooker. I use mine to brew potions, make natural skin products and cook dinner - I should really buy another one. As a vegetarian I spend a lot of time sourcing delicious appropriate recipes. In my search I discovered Kathy Hester's website so I jumped at the chance to review her revised and updated edition. There is even more to discover here and the metric conversion contained with the recipes make it for ease of use. Kathy now has me interested in the Instapot. I'll add that to my new kitchen gadgets for 2019.
Wonderful recipe book! All recipes are quick and easy, use readily available ingredients, are budget-friendly and full of nutritious plant-based ingredients. Even those not following a vegan diet will enjoy these recipes. I can't wait to make some of these dishes this week, especially the breakfast oatmeal.
Thank you, Quarto Publishing Group and NetGalley for a digital ARC.
Easy to follow recipes that actually turn out as good as they look. I found myself utilizing this book more than once when planning menus for the week.
