So it looks like these folks combed the web for vegetarian & vegan slow cooker recipes and plopped them all into a book. Oddly enough, recipes can't be copyrighted so apparently that's completely legal to do. Unfortunately they ended up with recipes for several different sizes of slow cookers, and their idea of "everything" doesn't include addressing that fact. Can you make a recipe in a different size crock pot? Do you need to make changes to the recipe if you do? That information would be much So it looks like these folks combed the web for vegetarian & vegan slow cooker recipes and plopped them all into a book.

The book was great simple recipes and simpler ingredients but it has no photographs at all. I would love to see a book with as much variety and pictures.

This is a collection of recipes that can be found, better, just about anywhere. Recipes that contain fake meats and other products are as bad for the body as a big charred steak. The recipes are narrow in scope (crockpot only) with few of them containing vegetables only.

is a much better choice if you're going to buy a cookbook that you'll want to use for years. Also, "you can be a vegan, just like your favorite celebrity, bill clinton!" bwaahaahaa. right, like he hasn't been seen chowing o This is a collection of recipes that can be found, better, just about anywhere.

The Everything Vegetarian Slow Cooker Cookbook by Amy and Justin Snyder is filled with Slow Cooker Recipes for a range of cooks. Some recipes include frozen, bottled, and canned food – yuck, while other recipes are authentic and traditional from scratch. I'm intrigued by the Pho Soup recipes and can't wait to try it out…although I'll stay clear from the teriyaki Chicken from the freezer and bottle.

There are a good number of recipes but make sure you already know the do's and don'ts in crockpot cooking before you use these receipes…they suggest adding bok choy at the beginning of an 8 hour recipe. Bok choy cooks quickly and will be a pile of mush in 2 hours, let alone 8 hours. ...more

After 2/3 of the recipes I made from this book were just ok, I can only give it 2 stars. But with that said, it's not a bad jumping off point for cooks who know how to build flavor while using a crockpot. My biggest complaint is that the majority of the recipes I made from this book lacked flavor in some way, whether it was calling for too much tumeric or too little seasoning. I would still go back to this book to try some of the tofu recipes, which I regrettably did not get to.

At the half way point I knew I had to buy this book for my collection. It combines my love of crockpots with my need to eat vegetarian.

A whole chapter dedicated to just chilies helps expand my horizon without having to buy too many new ingredients. Sauces helps cut down stuff I might usually buy.

The nice thing about this book is because most of the recipes are able to be made vegan and this very clean foods there is almost no gluten I need to worry about and can make most of these without any

I was really disappointed with this!! I love my crockpot and we are doing more and more vegetarian meals so I was looking for some good ideas for that, but this book was filled with brand specific ingredients, tons of "fake meats", and nothing that couldn't be found with a quick search online. I made notes of 3 recipe ideas from this book at that was it. Bummer!! I was really disappointed with this!!

I love this book. I have rented it more times than I can count, smply because I'm too cheap to shell out the money to just buy it. I love all the immersion blender soups and they have all been a hit with the family. Highly recommend this book if you are trying to make a slow, unassuming change to eating healthier and not wanting to try so hard to do it. I love this book.

What a great book to live without:

Paper bound, no photos, boring green font, AND Boring recipes. Most everything sounded tasteless.

The only good thing about this book was the nutritional information that was included w/ each recipe.

This cookbook was a huge letdown. Almost every recipe uses a meat substitute (seitan, tofu, etc) rather than just being veggie and bean heavy. I made two recipes and neither were particularly good. I have more luck using a regular cookbook and subbing butternut squash for the meat.

The not very much book of vegetarian slow cooking ingredient lists.

Also, like, did you know that if you are vegan you can use margarine instead of butter?

Did you know that if you want to use dry beans instead of canned, you should probably soak them, first?

this was a really great book with a wide variety of things to cook in a crockpot. since I'm new to this area of cooking, it was just what I needed. I may purchase the book as my main reference. Maybe in ebook format! this was a really great book with a wide variety of things to cook in a crockpot. since I'm new to this area of cooking, it was just what I needed.
