5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favorite cookbooks
This is one of my favorite cookbooks! Every recipe I've tried is fabulous and I've made some of them so often that I have them memorized.

Personally, I don't have any problems reading the text in this cookbook. Yes the print is tiny, but what do size text do you expect in a book that's only 6 inches tall? I really like the compact size because it's easy to take with me...

3.0 out of 5 stars Tiny font mars an otherwise good concept
The size of the book, colour pictures, everything about this book -- were really good -- and I liked the concept that it was designed to be small enough to take to the store when shopping for ingredients, BUT I would have to also take a magnifying glass too, to read the tiny print! Sorry, but this is just not on.

The recipes are simple and use ingredients that you can find at the grocery store. Most recipes are no more than 5 or 6 steps and include photos of some of them. I love this because I'm a visual person and I like to see what I need to do instead of just reading about it. There is also a beautiful, full page color picture of the final product so you have an idea of what the finished product should look like and how you can present it.
