Somewhat scattered but so worth it!

This book is wonderful. I feel it could have used further editing though. For instance in the middle of the "dry mix" section there is a recipe that does not make a dry mix. In the freezer recipe section there are recipes with no freezing options. I guess it gives it a real down-home feel to say essentially "here's how to evaluate recipes for ease of conversion to a dry mix, and here is one that didn't work", but someone who skips around in a book rather than reading it straight through may miss some really great tips. I've used the tips and hints more than the recipe section since I have so many cookbooks, but if I never use a recipe from the book the tips and hints alone are easily worth it. Buy it, read it, enjoy it. I give this book with some kitchen items in bridal shower gifts. I wish I would have had this information when I was a newlywed!

Fantastic book--if you cook you need this!

This is an excellent book! The section on substitutions alone makes the book worthwhile, it is the most comprehensive I have ever seen. This book has great recipes, showing you that just a little effort in advance will save you much time, money and possibly fat later. I recommend this book to every cook!

Excellent resource!

I found this book to be a great help in many aspects of cooking. One of the best resources for anyone's kitchen that I know. I plan to give a copy to several friends with whom I have shared the book's ideas.. Thank you!

A must-have book for the everyday cook!!

This book is must-have for all but the thinnest and wealthiest of people. It has not only changed the way I cook, but the way I look at convenience foods and the dollars I spend in the grocery store. Every person should have a copy of this book when they begin their own cooking and budgeting. I plan to give a copy to each of my children as they leave home. By the way, rarely a day goes by that I don't refer back to my copy for some reason or another. My only wish is that it was a hardback to stand up to the use it takes!

This book will change what you do in the kitchen!

This book has changed my kitchen forever! Marnie's Kitchen Shortcuts is not just another cook book. It is a food management system that oraganizes shopping, storing, and preparing. The strategies are neither complicated nor impractical. They really work! No need to waste time or money at the grocery store or in your own kitchen any more. My favorites in the book are the "make your own" recipies. From cream of mushroom soup to sweet and sour sauce, you no longer have to change your menu when you don't have the canned, store-bought version in your pantry. Marnie's "make your owns" are easy, taste great, and cost significantly less. Many meals have been rescued at my house just by making use of this one chapter. This is less a book review and more the divulging of a love-affair with this innovative book. The strategies and time and money saving ideas in this book will affect your whole life
