This cassoulet was a disappointment. The flavors were weak and the beans were mushy.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cassoulet turned out dry and bland.

This cassoulet is a great way to use up leftover meat. I used some leftover chicken and it turned out great.

This cassoulet was AMAZING! The flavors were rich and complex, and the meat was fall-apart tender. It was easy to make, too - I just threw everything in the slow cooker and let it do its thing.
