| missy32's Full Review: Favorite Brand Name Recipes - Easy Home Cooking Ma... |
I got this book free when I bought something from Finger Hut. It was part of one of my free gifts for placing an order. I was happy to get this book as soon as I received it I opened it right up and started to search all the recipes. It's a hard cover book and the pages are lined in gold color, kind of make's the book look elegant. The cover of the book has some pictures of great foods.
This cook book has recipes that I have never heard of before, and what I like most about this book is it gives you one specific item in each recipe that is a name brand thing you have to use. Example: A lot of the items are like from Jell-o or Hershey's, Land O Lakes, Duncan Hines, Philadelphia Cream Cheese, Borden and Lawry's. The book has 577 pages of recipes and pictures of some of the foods. Gives me a idea of what mine is to look like once I cook it.
There is recipes for Appetizers for when you are having a big party and you don't know what to make just open this book up and get some new ideas of some tasteful food here are a few recipes in this Appetizer's pages.
1.Layered Taco Dip. MMMMMM sounds great to me
2.Manhattan Clam Dip
3.Cocktail Party Tray
Next we have recipes for Beverages. This one my kids just love cause it helps them decide what type of new drinks they want mom to make.
example of some:
1. Easy Pudding Milk Shake
2. Quick Banana Malt
3. City slicker
Now on to those Soups. I'm not much of a soup eater, but this has made me change my mind. Easy fast new ways to cook soup.
Then we have the salads. I found some great new ways to make a salad and most of all how to make my salad look tasteful. Instead of the old hum drum salads I have found some salads that look very colorful and lots of great ingredients in it.
Ok we cant forget the meats. In this section you get recipes for all types of meat from pork to hamburger, to steak, ribs, and et. I found in this section a new way to stuff my turkey for Thanksgiving Day, a new stuffing mix that I use now. Every one just loved the new taste to my stuffing last year at Christmas and Thanksgiving.
Poultry: I was surprized at the many different ways you can cook chicken. I found a recipe that is almost just like Kentucky Fried Chicken's recipe the taste my kids say is just as good as the Cornals.
People who love Sea Food. Oh this is great. I found some great recipes for my shrimp and crab that I just love so much. In fact I turned my kids into sea food lovers with those recipes.
For the mother on the run who is always busy this section of the cook book is for you. It's called One-Dish Meals. With this you can find ways to cook one meal in one dish and bake it at one time. Saves on those dish's we all hate to do after dinner time.
Breads, Muffins and Cookies and Candies, Pies and Pastries and Desserts. I have used this part of the cook book every year since I got this book. I use it to find new ways to make all those delicious cookies and pies for the holidays.
Well I just have to say that this cook book is one of my all time favorites with many new and great recipes to choose from. With this book I have not yet ran out of new ways to cook food for dinner each day. This cookbook is also high quality and can take a beating. I don't know what I would do with out this book.
