Summary

Fondue pot, chafing dish, punch bowl, sauceboat, chili pot, soup tureen – and much more!
 
The slow cooker is simply a must-have entertaining assistant. With these fabulous 300-plus recipes, you can offer your guests the kind of relaxed, welcoming, confident hospitality that comes from being able to prepare fresh, delicious food ahead of time.
 
For casual entertaining, this book offers snazzy and flavorful recipes like Slow Cooker Cassoulet, Gringo Chili for a Crowd, Devilishly Good Beef Short Ribs, Chicken Mole Enchilada Casserole.
For holiday entertaining, guests will savor Slow Steamed Artichokes; Candied Yams with Apples and Cranberries; Prosciutto, Parmesean, and Pine Nut Stuffing; Old-Fashioned Turkey Breast with Pan Gravy.
 
And throughout this volume are treats like Champagne Fondue, Maple-Glazed Pecans, Plum Sauce Chicken Wings, Eggplant Caponata, and Slow-Poached Pears with Warm Chocolate Sauce.

Even if you have a smaller household, you can still take advantage of the ease, convenience, and versatility that are the hallmarks of slow cookers. These 125 recipes are for delicious meals specially created for preparation in a small (1 ½ -to 3 ½-quart) slow cooker. Beth Hensperger showcases fresh, wholesome ingredients (rather than relying on packaged convenience foods) to create fabulous brand-new dishes and contemporary takes on classic favorites, including Moroccan-Spiced Tomato Chicken with Almonds, Individual Pot Roasts, Jerked Pulled Pork with Rum Barbecue Sauce, Fresh Corn Risotto, and Chipotle Black Bean Vegetable Soup. The flavors are so big, the small slow cooker can barely contain them!
