Editorial Reviews

Product Description
More than 600 pages of beloved and classic recipes, all tested and proven in the kitchens of your favorite food manufacturers.

These are the recipes you meant to clip and save: the ones on that jar label, those cans, on the back of the box. They come from the test kitchens of America's food manufacturers--Kraft, Borden, Libby's and more--and every dish has become one of the nation's favorites. Everybody loves these classics: Kellogg's® Crunchy Baked Chicken, Campbell's® Scalloped Potatoes, the original Chex Party Mix, Rice Krispies Marshmallow Treats, Vanilla "Philly" Frosting. There's even a recipe from the Tabasco® hot pepper sauce people for Irish Stew that was developed by James Beard. In addition to being delicious, they're fast and easy to make, with detailed instructions for perfect results every time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Cookbook I Own, July 19, 2003
This is an excellent cookbook full of easy, relatively quick recipes. You won't have to go searching for strange-sounding, obscure ingredients, either. These are not gourmet dishes; they are delicious, every-day recipes which will become favorites around your house.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Cookbook, April 15, 2002
By "leeya" (Orange, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This is one of my favorite cookbooks. My husband and I love the Hunt's meatballs and spaghetti recipe as our very favorite sauce, and it only takes 20 minutes! It's hard to believe that such a simple sauce tastes better than anything we've found in a jar. Many other recipes have turned out great too.

This book would make an excellent gift for someone, and it's also very reasonably priced for a hardcover book.
