The best feature of this cookbook is that it uses simple ingredients. I especially like the soup and salad (and salad dressing) recipes, though I have also had success with the main courses and desserts. I have given this book as a gift to several of my GenX-aged friends because the recipes are simple enough for beginning cooks, but my mom and their moms seem to like it, too.

We have enjoyed many of the the easy to prepare recipes which emphasize the natural flavors of fresh fruits, vegetables and meats from the area. Recommend it highly and I am from Texas!!

I bought three of these cookbooks for gifts as friends, as the first copy I bought up at Roche Harbor a couple of years ago has been terrific - use it more than most of my other cookbooks and haven't tried a recipe in it yet that I haven't really liked. The ingredient lists generally include groceries I already have in the house or are easy to grab at the store and the preparation time is a snap. Definately makes preparing dinner a pleasure. I'd highly recommend it.

Pacific Fresh This is a great cookbook, using everyday fresh ingredients. I couldn't find my copy of it, so I just ordered a new one!

This author always hits her mark with wonderful, easy to prepare, fresh, tasty recipes.

Truly every recipe I've made from this cookbook is wonderful! Having moved away from the Pacific Northwest, I also find the author's notes by each recipe make me especially nostalgic! That aside...the food is delicious, and there are recipes for every taste!

I have tried numerous recipes in Pacfic Fresh and found each and every one to be great. The salads and salad dressings are outstanding as are the main courses and pasta dishes!! I have served many to guests and always receive rave reviews!

Every cook needs a cookbook collection of reliable and easy recipes that consistently turn out great! Pacific Fresh is that book!!

I bought this book at a winery in Napa in 1998 and have used it until it's nearly worn out. Recipes are easy to follow and don't require a lot of time. Everything I've ever tried is great. My family especially loves the salads and dressings. Sorry, Maryana, but I have shared some of your recipes at guest requests, but now I'm going to buy several copies for hostess and holiday gifts, and I'm going to replace my copy while I'm at it!
