This review is from: Fast Fix Family Food: More Than 400 Easy Recipes Your Family Will Love (Better Homes & Gardens Cooking) (Paperback)

I was looking for cookbooks that have pictures for almost EVERY recipe and this was one that I flipped through in a brick and mortar bookstore. I was even happier when I got the book. Great recipes, wonderful ideas for brown bagging it, and quick ideas and kid recipes and actual recipes we'll eat with yup, you guessed it PICTURES! I don't know about you, but I am a visual person and want to see the cooked version in picture form for recipes. Now I have this. GREAT!

This book is wonderful. I have recommended it to several of my friends and they love it. Lots of easy recipes that use things that most households have on hand everyday. It is the best cookbook I have ever purchased.

This review is from: Fast Fix Family Food: More Than 400 Easy Recipes Your Family Will Love (Better Homes & Gardens Cooking) (Paperback)

I checked this book out from the library and everything in it was so good I had to just buy a copy. It has lots of "real people" food. Things my husband and family will actually eat. This cookbook doesn't just sit on the shelf, I actually use it and make more than one thing from it.
LOTS of pictures! Love the make it now put it in the freezer for later section and the slow cooker section. Oh, and the chapter on fast weeknight meals. Ok, I like every section.
If you purchase one cookbook this year-this one should be it!
