I bought this book in the hopes of having time to cook some "real food"....not always an easy task when you are a working mother. I got MUCH more than I bargained for...This book has real world recipes from India to Italy to Mexico. They are good. The directions are clear, and they have PICTURES.  The Marinara sauce is just like my grandmother used to make without the bother of cleaning up splashes and worry about sticking pots. The curry is wonderful.  There are more soups than you knew existed. However, where this book goes beyond, are recipes like the spinach quiche.  Trust me. You will put things in your crock pot that you NEVER thought of putting there.Well worth the price....buy one for a busy friend for Christmas.Theresa LepianeHow To Work at Home With a Toddler
