Not an inspiring cookbook

As a long-time fan of Dream Dinners, I wanted to find a cookbook to help me create dinners that I could prepare and freeze. What I liked about the book was that each recipe, as made, makes a bunch -- usually 6 to 8 servings -- we're a family of 3, so I would have extra to freeze for later. But...

Good Food

This book has really helped with my OAMC. I have saved a lot of money and the food is great. My family has loved all the recipes I have made so far. The ingredients are basic, so there is no need to buy expensive hard to find things.

A cookbook I'm using already!

Bought it on recommendation from a friend. The recipes are basic but tasty. The tips on how/what to store in the freezer, and then make it edible again are even more worth the money than the book! I would definitely recommend it for learning to cook ahead (and saving time and money!!!). Lots...

No fish or seafood recipes

I just purchased this book and it does appear to have a lot of good recipes in it. But I just can't give it 5 stars because there is not one recipe in it that includes fish or seafood. I assemble at Dream Dinners and Supper Suppers often and I wanted to start making things at home to save money....

This cookbook is a disappointment

- No nutritional data. Quite a few recipes contain significant amounts of high fat dairy (cream, sour cream, whole milk, cheese). Anyone watching his or her weight or cholesterol would be dismayed by a cookbook that purports to be an every day cookbook. - Very inconsistent style of cooking. While...

Most used cookbook I have

I've had this book for almost a year now and have tried probably almost 2/3 of the recipes - all favorites. The best thing about the book is that most of the ingredients are common ones that I typically have on hand. And they vary from Mexican to American to Italian.

Absolutely the best recipes I've seen in a long time. Bought both books and have tried many recipes - each one is a winner. Would highly recommend these even if you don't want to freeze your meals. (and the ingredients are common ones found right in your pantry!)

Save time, money and have dinner ready!

I love this! I like cooking, but not everyday. With working a full-time job, kids activities, and coming home tired at night. This gave me a way to have family meals, make them more budget friendly and schedule friendly. I can shop at [...] or Sam's Club, make a few meals in bulk on a weekend or...

Awesome Book!

I have a very hard time finding quality recipe books with healthy recipes. Most are full of recipes and weird ingredients my family would never eat. These recipes are not only awesome, but the instructions are great, too. I purchased this after trying Dream Dinners for the first time, and it is...

Great meals, Good Instructions!

I bought this book along with another to stock up the freezer. The recipes are easy to follow with good descriptions. I typically need photos to make a recipe but the descriptions are enough for me. They make the whole process seem simple and the recipes we have made so far are very good- There...
