5.0 out of 5 stars
Best of the series - more variety,
This review is from: Cooking With 5 Ingredients (Plastic Comb)
If you told me that someone had made a book of recipes that only take five ingredients and three steps to make I would not have believed it contained so many delicious recipes. From appetizers, to breads, to brunch, soups, salads, sandwiches, vegetables, side dishes, main dishes, and sweets just about any type of recipe is represented here. This is a great cookbook for the novice cook or people in a hurry. The recipes are so simple that even a young teenager can prepare a complete meal without any problems. Some of the recipes that I really liked were the Roasted Garlic Dip, Mini Reubens, Green Olive Spread, Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken, Ranch Chicken, Sweet and Sour Spareribs, and Peanut Butter Fudge. It was really hard to pick favorite recipes from this book because everything I tried was great. This cookbook has already become one of my personal favorites. It has everything that I look for - comb bound so it lies flat, easy recipes to follow, easily acquired ingredients, minimal cleanup, and very tasty. This is a highly recommended cookbook for anyone to have around the house to prepare that elegant meal that looks and tastes like you have slaved in the kitchen all day.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Simple, easy, wonderful in every way,
By Jennifer E.Crandall (Plymouth, Michigan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cooking With 5 Ingredients (Plastic Comb)
This book was given to me by my sister as a part of my bridal shower gift. This is quite possibly the most useful gift I recieved. As a new homemaker and wife I have faced reality that I need to learn to cook and this book has come in handy just about every week. The recipes are easy and most ingredients you will already have in your cupboards and fridge. I also like the fact that they don't take long to make especially when everyone in your house works, the last thing you want to wait for is dinner! I highly recommend this to anyone and would also think it would be good for kids since the recipes are so easy. Five stars!

Finally - a super simple cookbook!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cooking With 5 Ingredients (Plastic Comb)
This is really a neat book! Just like the title says, all recipes contain 5 ingredients, some even less. The main chapters are: Appetizers & Beverages; Breads, Brunch & Breakfast; Soups, Salads & Sandwiches; Vegetables & Side Dishes; Main Dishes; and Sweets. There is a page to take notes next to the main dish chapter, plus the main dish chapter gives suggestions as to what side dishes and/or desserts to serve them with. The last half of the main dish chapter is entitled "Your Guide to Left-Over Turkey, Chicken and Ham" with recipes using up the leftover meat you might have. There is also a couple pages in the Sandwich chapter that gives "new and different combinations" for sandwiches, a page listing 6 "special sandwich spreads" and a basic hamburger recipe along with a page and half of creative ways to spice up the average hamburger. All in all, I think this is a really cool book, despite the fact there are no pictures, especially if you are really busy or don't want to take the time to fool with long complicated recipes!
