With the
combination of tradition, innovation, and ease that have made her
recipes so popular, Michele Scicolone gathers intriguing dishes from
every corner of the Mediterranean and streamlines them for the slow
cooker. The range is eye-opening: from simplified and freshened classics
like Greek shrimp with tomatoes and feta, to Israeli sweet and sour
meatballs, to Moroccan vegetable tagine, to coffee-caramel flan from
Spain. But Scicolone also serves up a profusion of
fascinating lesser-known dishes: a creamy polenta lasagna, a
port-braised chicken from Portugal, a spiced frittata from Tunisia, and
Bandit's Lamb, as well as her own seductive creations, like Cannoli
Cheesecake. -- Publisher Marketing
