Things that caught their eyes: Pancakes, French Toast, Waffles, Eggs (hard boiled, fried, and scrambled), Breakfast Tacos with Bacon, Blueberry Muffins, Monkey Bread, Smoothies, Yogurt & Berry Parfaits, Granola Bars, Stovetop Popcorn, Salsa, Guacamole, Cheese Quesadillas, Nachos, Hummus, Lemonade, Iced Tea, Hot Chocolate, Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, Tomato Soup, Oven-Fried Chicken, Beef & Broccoli Stir Fry, Beef & Bean Chili, Pizza (dough & sauce included), Corn Bread, Mashed Potatoes, Buttermilk Biscuits, Honey Butter, Banana Bread, Chocolate Sheet Cake, Chocolate Chip Cookies, Brownies, Strawberry Shortcake, Chocolate Sauce...
Things that additionally caught my eyes: veggie wraps, caprese panini, glazed salmon, quinoa, roasted broccoli, sesame noodles, strawberry cream paletas... I am attaching pictures of the index so you can read more.
The thing about good cookbooks is they should show you what you know you want to learn and help you discover other things that you never knew existed but suddenly might be enticed into learning. This book does that, and does it really well because ATK tests their recipes so thoroughly, that if you follow the directions you are guaranteed a good quality meal. Leaving a beginning cook satisfied with a positive result is what this is all about. And frankly this is a book I would recommend for college students because it doesn’t talk down to you; it’s just presenting good food.
Final word to the reviewer who was grateful to not “have” to watch their children in the kitchen: Yes, yes, you really do, but your relationship will be so much better for having spent real time together. Just do it.
Favorite basics cookbook by far!

This book has well tested recipes with tons of variety: familiar American flavors done well, explained simply, and covering the basics my 11 year olds want to know.By songlover1 on July 27, 2019

Make another cookbook! We need more recipes!
By J. Jones on March 7, 2020
I’ve bought pretty much every children’s cookbook I can find and this one is hands down the best. I dont just buy these and they sit on the shelves. We use them! My children cook dinner every single week. I’m a chef and I hold a cooking class with them once a week, every week. I want them to read recipes and execute the steps. It’s beyond important to me that my children easily work their way around a kitchen. This cookbook is hands down the best one. The recipes taste good and make sense. It’s recipes that push the envelope in the right areas but produce really tasty meals, that have obviously been tested, and also the kids will eat. I do have a complaint though- not enough main meal recipes! That’s my one and only complaint! Make another cookbook already! All the other ones out there totally suck. We’ve made the oven fried chicken, the buttermilk drop biscuits with honey butter, Mexican street corn (ah-MAZING!), shredded chicken tacos, beef and bean chili and corny cornbread. Next weeks menu is the apple cider glazed pork chops with garlicky skillet green beans and smashed potatoes so they will be doing three of your recipes in one night! Can’t wait! All have been really tasty and I’ve come to trust the recipes knowing it will come out right. We made a recipe from a different cookbook last week and it was a disaster. Learned my lesson! We need more recipes!
