ONE GREAT COOKBOOK

THIS IS A GREAT COOKBOOK, I BORROWED IT FROM A FRIEND AND AFTER TURNING SEVERAL PAGES, I KNEW I HAD TO HAVE THIS BOOK...IT IS NOT PRETENSIOUS, IS DOWN TO EARTH AND YOU WILL USUALLY HAVE EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO COOK AN AWESOME DINNER RIGHT IN YOUR VERY OWN PANTRY. THIS BOOK HAS SO MANY RECIPES FOR THE GREAT DOWN TO EARTH COOK. I RECOMMEND IT HIGHLY. BUY THIS BOOK!!!

I've worn out my first copy

I've just ordered a copy to replace my condiment stained, well thumbed edition that has endured a busy kitchen for 12 years. I've also ordered more as gifts. I've had some classical training so I know that not all the recipes in here are high standard gourmet but they are all good. I could spend 2 days making a cassoulet (one day just for getting the ingredients together) or I can make the one here which everyone loves. The chili here is good and takes about 5 minutes to put together (another 15 to simmer) and is a pot luck favorite. My teenage daughters are learning how to cook with this. I have over 400 cookbooks but...this is the one I use. I can't praise it highly enough.

I Couldn't Live Without My Copy!

If the burden of cooking ever falls on you as it has fallen upon me (for a grouchy "bear" of an Uncle) you'll love this book as much as I do! It is full of quick and easy dinner recipes that are made from common ingredients found in most kitchens. And the taste is superb, good enough to satisfy the pickiest of eaters. This book is invaluable!

The ultimate comfort food . . .

I was raised on casseroles: tuna noodle casserole; a ground beef, tomato and elbow macaroni concoction my mother called "goolash" (not to be confused with the Hungarian dish of similar name); stuffed peppers and stuffed cabbage; ham and green beans with new potatoes. Casseroles were a good way to stretch the food budget. In addition, they were regular staples at the monthly church pot luck dinners (for our denomination, the monthly pot luck was nearly a sacrament!).Natalie Haughton has compiled a very creative collection of one-dish recipes. She shows a lot of flexibility with the term "one-dish," including the wok, pressure cooker, and salad bowl in the definition. The result is a nice mix of easy, plain, fancy, and more complex recipes, a number of which are good company fare.Among my favorites are a version of Irish Lamb Stew very similar to one I was served at Bunratty Folk Park near Shannon Airport in Ireland (a dish that I'd enjoyed immensely, and had been searching for the recipe for several years!); a very nice Over Beef Stew; a good-enough-for-company Meat and Spinach Torte, made in a springform pan with puff pastry crust; a stick-to-your-ribs Cheddar Noodle Casserole, made with spinach fettuncine, smoked turkey breast, and cheddar cheese.All in all, a surprisingly good book, full of creative virtually fool-proof recipes. This is another of my "desert island" cookbooks!
