5.0 out of 5 stars My Favorite Cookbook!, March 22, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Comfort Foods: America's Favorite Foods, Cooked the Way You Like Them (Paperback)
I don't know why the Rachael Ray fans seem to be so upset. I enjoy her too. There is room for everyone! I am looking forward to trying more recipes in this book that will also become family favorites.

5.0 out of 5 stars Feel good food, November 25, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Comfort Foods: America's Favorite Foods, Cooked the Way You Like Them (Paperback)
Comfort Foods has wonderful, uncomplicated recipes that taste great and are "familiar"--no gourmet surprises here. And that's the beauty. Very Rich Cheesecake on p.292 is fabulous and easy to make. Ambrosia Salad on p. 90 is a family favorite. If you're looking for recipes for good, common, down-to-earth food, this cook book has them.
