Fix-It and Forget-It Christmas Cookbook Review and GIVEAWAY!! **ENDED**

(FIX IT AND FORGET IT CHRISTMAS COOKBOOK)Fix It and Forget It Christmas Cookbook by Good, Phyllis Pellman(Author)Hardcover{Fix It and Forget It Christmas Cookbook: 600 Slow Cooker Holiday Recipes}on 01 Oct 2010 

Cooking for a crowd can be very intimidating and exhausting.  Rather than slaving over the stove and missing half of the party, why not consider using your slow-cooker to prepare your feasts! The Fix-It and Forget-It Christmas Cookbook is a book filled with 600 slow cooker recipes that are perfect for the winter and holiday entertaining.

The book is organized into the following mouth-watering categories:
Appetizers, Snacks, and Spreads
Breakfast and Brunch Dishes
Soups, Stews, and Chilis
Main Dishes: Beef, Pork & Ham, Chicken, Turkey, Meat & Bean, Other
Vegetables
Beverages
Desserts and Sweets

In addition, there are also several pages dedicated to helpful hints. There were so many delicious sounding recipes, I had a hard time decided which one to try first. Since I love warm casseroles in the autumn and winter, I decided to give one of the many listed in the book a try. The Chicken Broccoli Rice Casserole was an easy meal with 10 total ingredients. Some of the ingredients required prep work, but then the slowcooker took over and I created a delicious casserole. My husband and I were thrilled with how delicious it turned out!

There is a nice mix of recipes in this book, some that require minimal ingredients others that have many.  I prefer recipes that require minimal prep time and this is easy to find because each recipe clearly defines the preparation time and cook time. They even clarify which size slow cooker is ideal for each recipe.  I highly recommend the book and have a feeling I am going to be using it a lot this holiday season!
