Spicy Mongolian Beef and Pineapple made in a crock pot has such a great blend of sweet and spicy flavor and the meat gets super tender from slow cooking. This recipe is sure to become a family favorite!

You can find this recipe along with many more in my friend Kelly Kwok’s new cookbook The Asian Slow Cooker: Exotic Favorites for Your Crockpot.

You may already be familiar with Kelly from her popular food blog, Life Made Sweeter. I’ve been a reader of Kelly’s blog for several years. She always has the most gorgeous desserts. But I’m really excited she wrote a slow cooker cookbook. I love using my crockpot and good slow cooker cookbooks are few and far between.

Kelly has taken favorite childhood recipes and adapted them to fit the needs of the busy cook in her debut cookbook.
Lots of times, you think of slow cooker food as being bland and one dimensional, but Kelly’s recipes include ingredients like miso paste, ginger, and Sriracha for lots of depth of flavor.

There are 80 delectable Asian dishes and desserts  all together, plus beautiful color photographs. The recipes can either be made in a crockpot or JUST ONE POT.

The recipes are arranged into 8 chapters:
