    After spending a mouthwatering hour perusing this wonderful cookbook my wife and I went out and bought a slow cooker. Easy and delicious stocks, soups and a splendid turkey bolognese sauce were our first efforts. We will be soon be on to other sauces, vegetables, stews and desserts.

    Michele Scicolone’s instructions are always accurate and easy to follow. Her invention and taste sense make this book a total delight.

    I have to admit I’m a great fan of Michele Scicolone. I got one of her cookbooks long ago, baked the best cookie I’ve ever had, and have been addicted to her wonderful recipes, stories and style ever since. This book continues her tradition of crafting perfect cookbooks. Why do I say perfect? Well, I’m not a professional cook, yet I can follow her recipes and create fantastic meals. Many cookbooks have recipes that are tricky or simply don’t come out at all. Michele’s books are totally trustworthy. Her recipes work flawlessly, deliciously. I just opened my copy of Italian Slow Cooker, found the recipe for Chicken Ragu, and looked at the outside temperature. It’s only 10 degrees above zero in the Catskills, but I’m tasting her ragu tonight and the world is warm and comfy.

    I recommend this book to everyone.

    This is a WONDERFUL cookbook! I have made most of the recipes in it and have enjoyed each one. They come out delicious (not the grey mush that most crock pot recipes turn into) and are relatively easy. I also like that they don’t all need a million ingredients. A lot of these recipes use things you likely already have on hand. TWO THUMBS UP!
