I have made four recipes from this book since purchasing it with a Christmas gift card. All four have gotten a request to "make this again" from my husband, which is very unusual...although, I'll admit, I'm no gourmet. This is Down-Home-Style food, and although many of the recipes call for convenience items (canned chicken, for example) I'm sure they can be modified when time permits.
I'm dying to try several more in this book...they all sound so yummy! I can tell this book won't gather dust on my cookbook shelf. Other tips throughout the book on how to make plain staple foods more delectable.
Very easy to follow, even for a kitchen beginner. The book also gives a "Perfectly Prepared Pantry" list to ease shopping, and a kitchen math list, which tells you how much raw product you need in order to end with a specific prepared amount.
Definitely a winner! |
