This is a great book for people who like wholesome foods but don't necessarily have a lot of time. The ingredients used by most of the recipes are those commonly found in most kitchens and the preparation steps are easy to follow. I have used recipes from most of the different sections of the book and have been pleased with all of them. To me the test of a cookbook is if I try three recipes and they don't turn out then I pass on the book to someone else. With this book I pass on the recipes... The zucchini patties and the chocolate zucchini bread are great . My kids make the apple crisp themselves. The recipes are also easy to modify to your own taste. I have even substituted soy products, low fat alternatives and different flours in some of the recipes with good results. Some of the recipes (overnight french toast) can even be put together the night before and cooked the following morning. I have even called some of the B&Bs to ask about a particular recipe. A great addition to your cookbook library.
