I've been playing with these recipes for a week or two now, and I'm no where near through the list of dishes I want to try. So far, one of my favorites has been Dijon Beef Roast. It is so simple, yet the Dijon mustard adds just enough depth to the flavor to make it interesting and keep it familiar at the same time. This is one of those toss it together and it works kind of recipes as far as I'm concerned. I could make it every week and not get tired of this tender, tasty roast.
I have never used a slow cooker for more quickly cooked dishes before. I must confess on my first attempt with salmon filets, I was a little too nonchalant and did not pay enough attention to timing. For dishes like this, timing matters, and the directions say so quite clearly. I'd suggest following the directions, unless you have someone like I do in the house who doesn't believe protein can ever be too done.
Think I'll head back to the kitchen now. I have two large Crock Pots going, but I still haven't tried the blackberry preserve recipe. Onward...
lololol re: the salmon!! it's so good, but it does cook SO fast! lol!! I just wish I could get my husband to eat it... I don't know if you can have it, but I also love the tilapia stew! Such unique flavors with the fish sauce and green onions! Love it! Thank you so much for the great review here and on Amazon! I TRULY cannot thank you enough Pamela!!
ReplyDeleteI can't thank you enough, Carrie. This is such a useful book. And, by the way, I love how readable the font and layout are.
DeleteI'll try the tilapia stew soon.
