2.0 out of 5 stars Cute pictures, terrible recipes, January 7, 2008
By 
jen (Lexington, KY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Shrek Cookbook (Hardcover)
My son enjoyed looking at the pictures of the Shrek characters, and it did inspire my kids to want to try to cook, but as a cookbook, it is extremely frustrating and disappointing. As another poster said, the recipes are riddled with errors, such as 2-1/2 CUPS of sugar in pancakes instead of tablespoons, the letter "t" ommitted throughout the salsa recipe, the porridge recipe has the measurements of oats and milk switched, and more. Thank goodness I decided to look over the recipe for pancakes before my daughter made it, and as a experienced cook caught the error. I'm glad it inspired my kids to cook, but it is a pain to have to carefully review and correct every recipe before they can try it. Obviously, the recipes were never tested. I'm sure there are much better kids cookbooks at there with accurate recipes and more kid-friendly.

2.0 out of 5 stars Typo's Galore!, January 3, 2008
By 
This review is from: Shrek Cookbook (Hardcover)
This book is entertaining but don't put too much credence in the recipes! For example the Sleeping Beauty pancakes calls for 2 1/2 cups of sugar! Tablespoons would be more like it. Our kids made a big mess creating unedible pancakes.

The recipe for Swamp weed and fly larvae is missing the letter 't' throughout. "2 oma oes", "Sal and pepper", etc.

I am sure that there are more typos like this.

Buyer beware!

5.0 out of 5 stars My little chef wants to cook EVERY recipe., April 16, 2010
This review is from: Shrek Cookbook (Hardcover)
We borrowed this from the library and my 4 y/o son wants to make everything in the book. I am buying it for him because he loves it so much. He even ate a fish cake. He said it needed bugs in it while we were preparing them, so I put in some peas in lieu of scallions. If I said eat your peas, he would have left them alone, but since we were calling them bugs, he ate them! LOL He was snacking on them while we were cooking. This book is not for the iron chef, it's for the play dough chef.
