5.0 out of 5 stars Diverse and probably the best book that Taste of Home has come out with so far, April 7, 2008

The title really says it all. Wonderfully put together, and filled with good home style cooking meals. This is no means a cookbook of sophisticated cuisines, but for everyday living which is so appealing to the average household. Great ideas for quick throw togethers when the day is too hectic, and many many pictures for those who insist they will only buy cookbooks with pictures. Not all recipes are 1st place prize winners, but they are nice incentives to try the dishes along with all the other mouthwatering dishes published in this winner of a cookbook.

Winning Recipes:This is already one of my most favorite cook books I have been able to find something for almost every taste bud in the family,When I received this cook book I immediately looked through every page & read every recipe & found some old favorites with a different flair,I prepared them for my family & they were blown away they thought I came up with the new recipe but I couldn't take the credit I had to let them in on the secret about my new best friend to the kitchen,they were thrilled because that meant allot more to come,yum yum..This cook book just compliments The Taste of Home Cook Books I collect them all & none of them have disappointed me in the kitchen yet or my family they all know when I have prepared something from one of these cook books they are all excited when they see the presentation on the table.I hope you enjoy this & the other wonderful Cook Book's from The Taste of Home Series.I have really enjoyed the ring binder format they come in which makes it easier to use the cook book lays flat for you to use with ease & most of them comes with splash guards which helps protect the pages while your preparing your recipe if you make a mess on the splash guard it wipes right off with ease never ruining your cook book so the cook book will be in wonderful shape for many years to come."Hint you can also use the splash guards to protect your other favorite cook books as well"

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the money!, July 22, 2008

I've been cooking for 30+ years and am by no means a novice.
The recipes in this book are simple to follow, but definitely not health-conscious. You might gain a few pounds just looking at the pictures!
However, I am making this a part of my cookbook collection because of the proven, time-tested recipes. Full of the kinds or recipes "grandma used to make"
