Product Description
Make It Fast, Cook It Slow is the first cookbook from Stephanie O'Dea, the extremely popular slow cooking blogger: affordable, delicious, nutritious, and gluten-free recipes to delight the entire family. In December 2007, Stephanie O'Dea made a New Year's resolution: she'd use her slow cooker every single day for an entire year, and write about it on her very popular blog. The result: more than three million visitors, and more than 300 fabulous, easy-to-make, family-pleasing recipes, including: - Breakfast Risotto
- Vietnamese Roast Chicken
- Tomatoes and Goat Cheese with Balsamic Cranberry Syrup
- Falafel
- Philly Cheesesteaks
- Crème Brulee
--and much more. Make It Fast, Cook It Slow is the perfect cookbook for easy, quick prep, inexpensive ingredients, and meals that taste like you spent hours at the stove.

I gave into the hype and bought this book but my husband and I were not impressed. The recipes are just not tasty. Some just needed salt. Maybe its because they were developed around the palate of her kids rather than adults. I appreciated the easy directions and helpful comments but I don't plan on opening this book again unless I feel the urge to attempt the brulee.

So excited to have a gluten free cookbook for the crockpot. Really like the family reviews after each recipe. Good seller, quick ship.
The only slow cooker book you need June 22, 2010

This is the best slow cooker cookbook ever! I have probably had about 15 different slow cooker cookbooks in my long life. None of them ever bested Mabel Hoffman's classic until this one. Author Stephanie O'Dea is concerned about making healthy food, and presents recipes for your own broths, sauces, no over-salted stuff from cans. Every recipe is gluten-free if you want it that way. Every recipe is simple. Every recipe is wonderful. I have never cooked so many really good dinners until I discovered her slow cooker website and then got this book. My spouse hated my boring, bland, slow cooker meals until I discovered this lady. You must get this book. You will not regret it. I've never written a review about anything in my entire life. My husband did almost all the cooking until I got smitten with the really good meals I am now anxious about fixing two or three times a week. Me! There is hope, even for retired people like me. Amazon's price is the best.
It truly is a recipe book for EVERYDAY cooking June 15, 2010

I first got this book from the library. I really enjoy reading cookbooks, but usually there are only one or two recipes that I think my family will eat. I have four kids, with four different ideas about what is actually edible. This book was so different. Nearly every recipe sounded like the majority us would like it. Even before it was time to return the book to the library, I ordered myself a copy. I'd already made a couple of recipes each week, and knew I would miss the book terribly. This book spends more time out on my counter than away on the book shelf.
I realize that all these recipes are online, but when it is time to cook I don't want to get distracted by my email ... you know how that goes. It is well worth the money to have a copy of this book in the kitchen.
One last thing I love is that I can put dinner in the crock pot after eating lunch, and then I don't have to think about dinner until it is time to eat. With four kids going a million different directions, that is truly a lifesaver.
 Disappointed June 8, 2010

I'm disappointed at best. We've only tried a couple of recipes but no one in my family of 8 kids liked them. I read the reviews before I bought, but thought I'd try it anyway. I'm still hoping to find a good recipe or two, but I don't have much hope. AND I can't afford to keep using expensive ingredients to make something no one will eat.
There were a lot of good reviews, but maybe we just have different taste buds. The "Lemon Chicken" was inedible (we made the "orange" version). And the Apricot Chicken was edible, but I was the only one eating it, and that was because I just couldn't throw out another big batch of chicken.
