I received "The Ultimate Multi Cooker Cookbook," and I am impressed with it and would buy it again. I think copying the recipes, especially while the book is still available at HSN, would be 😨, so I'm going to provide some details without crossing any lines (hopefully!).

There are 4 breakfast recipes, 5 Appetizers, 9 Soups & Stews, 10 Main Dishes, 9 Sides, 17 Desserts, and 3 Beverages. (I count 57 recipes, although the book states 56.) Beautiful photos. Print could be darker, but I was able to read it comfortably.

For those who own other versions of CS's cookers, this book gives the reader the ingredients for three cooker sizes: mini cooker, medium cooker, and large cooker, along with how many servings per cooker size. The only thing missing for me per recipe is nutrition information, but I can input each ingredient in "MyFitnessPal" that I use to track meals every day.

I have to watch my sodium intake (seriously, unfortunately), and some of these recipes and their ingredients are very appealing to me; I'm excited to make them in the mini multi-cooker:

Mushroom Ramen (with miso, sesame oil, onion, ramen noodles, etc.), Chicken Chile Verde, Fresh Corn Chowder, Stewed Shrimp with Chorizo, Asian Beef Lettuce Cups, Hawaiian-Style Veggie Rice Bowls, Chicken & Dumplings, Thai Chicken & Vegetable Curry, and Mexican-Style Rice. I can make these while controlling the sodium, which is so much better than ordering Chinese food and asking for "no sodium" or "low sodium"! I'd buy this book just for those recipes.

I want more than "quick and easy" recipes, and these call for "real" and fresh ingredients that are available at the grocery store. The recipes seem to me to be at a higher level, but not intimidating or with exotic ingredients that I can't find.

I bought this book on a "Free Shipping Day" at HSN, which helped. I think it is expensive, but, for me, worth it.
