Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
Hensperger is the author of more than a dozen other cookbooks and coauthor of Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Cookbook. Her follow-up to that best-selling title presents recipes developed specifically for smaller slow cookers intended to serve one or two people that often leave leftovers (she points out that smaller batches cannot be cooked efficiently or as well in larger cookers). Most of the recipes are for homey, hearty fare; there is also a short chapter of quick and easy accompaniments prepared separately, along with a good, basic introduction to slow cooking. For all subject collections. Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.

Beth Hensperger, a New Jersey native who has lived in California since her teens, has been educating, writing, and demo-lecturing about the art of baking for over 30 years. In the last few years, she has shifted focus to countertop appliance-driven cookbooks that embrace adapting traditional and professional recipes for the home cook: the bread machine, the rice cooker, the microwave, and a four-volume compilation specifically for use with the electric slow cooker, stressing personal creativity in preparation and selection of ingredients. Hensperger is the author of over 22 cookbooks, including the best-selling Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Cookbook series, which includes NYMSC Recipes for Entertaining, NYMSC Family Favorites, and NYMSC Recipes for Two, along with the blockbuster first volume, Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Cookbook. Her other books include highly-acclaimed titles such as The Bread Lover's Bread Machine Cookbook, The Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook, NYM Microwave Cookbook, and NYM Weeknight Cooking. She is also the author of The Bread Bible (Chronicle Books), winner of a James Beard Award in 2000. She has twice been nominated for the Julia Child/IACP Cookbook Award. Hensperger wrote a San José Mercury News food column for twelve years, “Baking with the Seasons.” She is a contributor to dozens of national and online cooking & lifestyle magazines, such as Food & Wine, Rachael Ray Magazine, Veggie Life, Cooking Light, Working Woman, Victoria, Prevention, and Family Circle, and is a sought after newspaper and radio interviewee speaking on slow cooking, bread baking, and entertaining. She lives in the San Francisco Bay area. Visit her website at www.bethhensperger.com and blog at www.notyourmotherscookbook.com.

    Terrific cookbook for the adventurous, time-challenged cook

    I usually cook for two and have tried a number of the recipes in this book (which can also easily be doubled) - every one has been easy, tasty and compliment-producing. The recipes are uncomplicated, can mostly be prepared in advance and provide suggestions for accompanying side dishes. The best part for me is being able to plug in my slow cooker and go off on errands, knowing that my meal will be ready when I need it.

    Excellent Book

    Loved the variety of recipes in this book. It's hard to only cook for two people and these portion sizes are just perfect. These are definately recipes that would work for company.

    So Far So Good

    Received a slow cooker as a wedding gift and did not know what to do with it because I have never used a slow cooker before. I bought this book and thank goodness. I have tried several of the recipes in this book and they are delicious. I have yet to hit a complicated recipe. It is great to just chop and prep everyting before I got to work and have a meal ready when I get home. The portion sizes are great, some are more than enough for two people. My husband has yet to finish a meal and still be hungry.
