Wow !! Usually I am lucky if I find a couple of recipes I want to try but I found 19 in this book. I have already made 3 of them and they are wonderful. I highly recommend this cookbook to everyone. I actually bought the book after checking it out from the library first.
First glance we were not impressed with this cookbook. I mean chicken, salsa, and cheese come on who wouldn't know how to do that. But these simple recipes were d.e.l.i.c.i.o.u.s there was not a recipe that we didn't like. We did have one issue with this book however but this issue doesn't change our rating. These recipes are not for just one or two people. Most recipes were made in dishes where we commonly serve 8 people for a casserole. But who cares use these tasty recipes to serve eight instead of one. During the meeting we enjoyed the 20 minute teriyaki chicken and broccoli, slow cooker pulled BBQ chicken sandwiches, slow cooker white bean and kielbasa soup, creamy spinach artichoke pasta bake, cheesy baked Italian sausage tortellini, Italian sausage and pepper Stromboli, broccoli cheddar soup, and fluffy buttermilk pancakes with blueberry compote.
I'm actually very surprised that I didn't like this more, since I'm a pretty big fan of her blog. I think it might be because it lacked her voice - there really weren't a lot of the personal touches that I definitely feel when I read her blog posts. Still, the recipes all look nice.
Great cookbook with simple recipes with ingredients found at home or any supermarket. The recipes are geared for 2 people. Each recipe has a picture (my peeve with cookbooks). Following Julie Wampler on pinterest.
This is a great cookbook that has alot of recipes that I would make. I like that it has pictures of the food so you know what your getting plus it uses ingredients you would have on hand.
