Huge cookbook

[Courtney · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great recipes. Would be a 5 star, but I would like the calorie, fat, etc count for the recipes. Some look really fat heavy.
The peppermint paddy cupcakes are amazing and super moist!

This is a good cookbook if you have a limited amount of cooking knowledge or foods at your disposal. A lot of prepackaged products and canned soups.
