5.0 out of 5 stars Great basic cookbook, December 20, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Marion Cunningham's Good Eating (Hardcover)

I had an old clipping of Cunningham's lemon yogurt breakfast muffin recipie and was delighted to find a copy of it with other equally wonderful offerings here. The supper recipies are simple but elegant. If you are into nouvelle,fusion,gourmet prescription-this is not for you, but this is the food that my family likes to eat, and it is a cut above.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reprint of "The Supper Book" and "The Breakfast Book", March 31, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Marion Cunningham's Good Eating (Hardcover)

These are delicious recipes, well explained. The breakfasts as well as the suppers would be suitable for a satisfying (yet not too large or complicated) supper. I was impressed by Marion Cunningham from her revision of Fannie Farmer. This book shows her own personality much more and made me want to declare her an "honorary aunt" in our house.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Marion Cunningham's Good Eating (Hardcover)

As a serious child cook, I enjoy testing recipes. One of my least favorite dishes, however, came from " The Supper Book ", which I had bought in the form of " Marion Cunningham's Good Eating ". Well, the Tamale Pie was not good eating. While the filling was delicious and nicely spiced, the cornmeal mush used as a crust never thickened, and remained the consistancy of Cream Of Wheat even after baking, forming a gloppy mush on the plate that looked really unappetizing. Worse yet, the quanity the recipe made was immense, and it filled our largest pan, which was about 2 1/2" deep, 2' long, and 1' wide. Are any other recipes in this book good? Beats me. Just avoid that hideous Tamale Pie.
