I got this cookbook for my mom to go with a new slow cooker I got her. My dad has heart issues and requires a low sodium diet. My mom has been cooking the same Midwestern food in same the way for 50 years and doesn't like to cook with unfamiliar ingredients.This cookbook is perfect for my mom. Every time I talk to her, she tells me about a new recipe she has tried from this book and she's become more adventurous because the recipes are so approachable. The Mongolian Beef is a new favorite! My dad misses his Chinese takeout and my mom is proud she has been abole to replicate it in a healthy way.She says the recipes are easy, tasty, and uses ingredients she already has in the house or that she is familiar with. This is important as they are on a fixed income and don't want to buy lots of ingredients to make just one dish. She's also not afraid to make her own substitutions (i.e. using coconut aminos instead of low sodium soy sauce because that is what they have at home) and says it always works out great.This cookbook has been enjoyable for my mom and I recommend it to people wanting low-sodium, approachable, and familiar recipes for their slow cooker.
