Summary: Disappointed
Comment: I also purchased my crockpot in order to make quick meals with a minimum of fuss as I have little to no time to cook during the week. I assumed that it would follow that crockpot recipies would be relatively simple and quick to complete, but not so with this book. The recipes required more time and effort that I was prepared to give. I never use this book.

Summary: go, Mable, go!
Comment: Gee, did the other reviewer and I use the same cookbook? We have Mable's original Crockery Cookbook and now this one. In both, the recipes are easy to follow. Cheesecloth is easy to buy in the supermarket and we don't use trivets in the crockpot (canning rings do the job nicely, too). Both my wife and I take turns selecting a dish and do some prep work the night before (chopping vegetables, browning if need be). In the AM, it takes just a few minutes to take the ingredients out of the refrigerator and setting up the crockpot. The house smells heavenely when we come home. We use her recipes at least 3 times a week and have even made cakes and breads in the crockpot as well. A winner!

Summary: Too much trouble
Comment: I read the reviews of Mabel Hoffman's cookbooks and bought them on the strength of those reviews. I'm sorry I did.
I use a crockpot to make my life simpler. Ms. Hoffman's recipes usually require either cheesecloth, a crockpot trivet, or both. Sometimes, you have to prepare the food before placing in the crockpot. The food may be marvelous, but as a working woman, I'm not going to do all these things.
I believe I copied out 3-5 recipes per each book of Ms. Hoffman's that I bought. If you enjoy fussy crockpot cooking, these may be the books for you.
