3.0 out of 5 stars Convenience Food Cooking, November 3, 2001
By 
DFE (Lake Forest, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mr. Food Cooks Chicken (Hardcover)
Before buying this book you should be aware that Mr Food's favorite ingredient is a can of soup - tomato soup, cream of mushroom soup, and onion soup being his favorites. Most recipes consist of a couple of common prepared items such as soup, soy sauce, canned fruits and vegetables, or bottled dressing combined with the chicken. There are a handful of simple from scratch recipes, but the bulk of these recipes are similar to those found in advertisement to promote the use of a particular convenience item. These are for the most part very good versions of this style of cooking and I enjoy using them every now and them. Some people think this is the only way to cook and others turn up their nose at it. Just be forewarned that while you will get quick and tasty, you are not going to get fresh and healthy or anything remotely authentic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mr. Food, a necessity for all new cooks!, May 30, 2000

This review is from: Mr. Food Cooks Chicken (Hardcover)
Art Ginsburg's "Mr. Food Cooks Chicken" is a must for new cooks and accomplished cooks. I have purchased this book, and several other Mr Food books, for each of my three daughters and several other young people. As an accomplished chef it is easy to prepare a dish, it is harder to pass this on to a new cook. All my daughters and others that I have passed "Mr. Food Cooks Chicken" on to have thanked me over and over again. The book handles scores or recipes for chicken. Each recipe is simple,and explained clearly so that a new cook can understand the process. For those of us that think we are masters of the four-burner, this book will introduce new recipes that we may have heard of or tasted before but didn't know how to reproduce. Yes an old dog can learn new and delicious tricks with chicken thanks to "Mr Food".

No new cook or old cook should be without this book in their kitchen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mr. Food has saved me from a lifetime of frozen dinners!, July 5, 2001
This review is from: Mr. Food Cooks Chicken (Hardcover)
Can we talk? I sooo can't cook. Not at all. I have trouble boiling water and scrambling eggs. And even I can make a recipe out of this book.

Mr. Food is better (and funnier!) then my high school home ec teacher. His recipes are simple, with basic ingrediants, and most importantly - are delicious.

I have a few stand by favorites and every now and again, I'll try a recipe that's "new". This is by far one of my favorite cookbooks.

Whether you're an experienced cook or a (ahem!) novice like myself, I highly recommend this book.
