4.0 out of 5 stars 4.5 Out of 5.0- Yum! May 3, 2012

By Grandma TOP 500 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

Patti Fredericksen Colt and Tiffany Aller write the Worth A Damn food blog. 50 Favorite Main Dishes is a collection of some of their most popular Main Dish recipes. You'll find recipes like Sloppy Joe Pie, Beef Enchiladas, Lemonade Chicken, Alaskan Barbeque Salmon, a Cranberry Orange Pork Loin and dozens more, even a couple of Vegetarian recipes. Grandma didn't find a single glaring error, nor did she find any of the recipes that she checked anywhere except the Worth A Damn blog.

The book is very well laid out. Each recipe is listed individually in an interactive Table of Contents and is clear and easy to read with no extra white space or oddly placed page breaks in the recipe. (Grandma did take off a star because the TOC does not interface with the Kindle Navigation Menu.)

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice collection of basic recipes May 3, 2012

This cookbook contains a nice selection of basic recipes. While some may not be to my taste... Lemonade chicken for example, the formatting is nice, and I found the recipes easy to find and read. I intend to try a couple like the Barbecued steak recipe and the chicken and rice recipe.

3.0 out of 5 stars Awkward Kindle Navigation & No Access to Last Few Recipes May 5, 2012

By S. K. Norman

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

I am not rating this book as mediocre because of the recipes, themselves, but due to the awful Kindle navigation. (The initial reviewer who indicated that navigation is wonderful is either doing drugs or one of the writer's mothers!) The GO TO Kindle feature DOES NOT list a Table of Contents (TOC). You have to GO TO the BEGINNING and then page to the TOC. Once at the TOC you can then select individual recipes. Then to get back to the TOC , you have to remember to arrow back to the TOC or start over with GO TO BEGINNING. I found it awkward and frustrating to browse.

In addition, I was unable to access the turkey and vegetarian recipes at all, as well as the last pork recipe listed. Clicking on the recipe title doesn't work at all--which was a disappointment.

As for the recipes, themselves, I actually quite liked many of them and would rate the book 4 star if navigation issues were fixed and links to final recipes were accessible. Of specific interest to me were 9 seafood recipes and a yummy rack of lamb recipe. I personally would have liked more turkey and lamb choices and fewer of the standard beef and chicken recipes that you can already find in many cookbooks.
