4.0 out of 5 stars Great Cookbook- easy, good food, September 12, 2001

By	apoem "apoem" (Bosque Farms, NM USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This is not about fancy cooking or exotic ingredients. For the most part, this book is full of one pot meals that you can make with very little effort. Every recipe I have tried has been easy to make with on hand ingredients.

I particularly liked the wide variety of recipes: casserole recipes, crock pot recipes, wok recipes, one pan/pot recipes etc.

I refer to this one many times when planning meals or looking for a last minute meal to prepare.

Has some decent recipes but overall quite average. However, I'm a very picky eater so others might enjoy the book more.
