Review This Cookbook

From the Author

Robin Robertson:

I’ve been working with food since 1980, when I worked my way up from line cook to chef in the restaurant business. Because I love animals, there was always a vegan inside me waiting to get out, so in 1988, I decided to follow my heart: I left the restaurant business and became a vegan. I wanted to apply my cooking experience to promote vegetarian cooking, and so I began teaching cooking classes in how to adapt classic cooking techniques to vegetarian ingredients. I also began to write articles and cookbooks at that time. I am now the author of ten vegan/vegetarian cookbooks—with more on the way. I’ve been married to my husband, Jon, for 32 years and we have a wonderful 16-year-old cat named Douglas Fur. (More...)

Reviewer: Sharon from Colorado, U.S.A.:

I am absolutely thrilled with ”Fresh from the Vegetarian Slow Cooker”, which is my second cookbook by Robin Robertson. The vegetarian recipes are nutritional, easy, and provide new adventures in crock-pot cooking. Coming home at night, and immediately getting a whiff of something delicious cooking in the slow cooker, is so rewarding after a long 60 mile commute.

I’ve used many of the recipes, with several favorites becoming household standards. I now own 6 different sized slow cookers, primarily for the recipes, and it has been a blessing. Good healthy organic vegetarian food! Who knew of all the possibilities? Ms. Robertson surely does!
