Good winter fare-not limited to holidays at all. Especially nice soup and stew recipes. Will re-use this many times.

Nothing new here. A few interesting recipes including several "slow roasting" vegetable recipes that I find intriguing. I love roasted vegetables, and if I can get a similar result through the slow cooker, that would be great. Have not seen these recipes anywhere else. I not tried this technique yet. I liked the side bars for each recipe. For the most part they imparted good information with regards to the recipe rather than just being a page filler. Nice photos of each recipe.
