Delicious recipes for everyday living!

Delicious recipes for everyday living. This is my go-to book for easy soups and stews. The recipes are great American-style dishes, with easy-to-find ingredients. The chapter organization of the book makes sense, and the index is thorough. There are no photos or drawings, but I have not felt the need to see any. I have given it to each of my adult children who also love it. It would be great to have it published with a spiral binding. Great job authors!

Good Book, Good buy

I have purchased copies for family members and recommended to others. Good food, easy to follow, good variety and provides nutritional information per recipe for those of us who want/need to see that kind of thing. If you like Soups and Stews, you won't be dissapointed.

One of the easiest cookbooks I have used

Even if the recipes weren't low-fat, I would still enthusiastically recommend this cookbook. I have yet to try a recipe out of this cookbook that hasn't been a breeze to prepare and also tastes wonderful.Who cares if it is low-fat? It won't occur to you as you try the various soups and stews. Simply enjoy it for the delicious meal that it truly is.

Great Ideas for Winter

When I want a quick dinner, or hearty and easy lunch, I pick up this book and wow! How can you miss with over a thousand ideas? The recipes are easy and delicious, and I really appreciate that they are low-fat. I've made several in the slow cooker -- put the ingredients in in the morning, and after work, a delicious hot meal is waiting for me, fragrantly steaming in the kitchen.

Like almost everyone else these days, I'm trying to eat right and stay healty. Thanks to this great book, I'm finding it easier to cook low fat meals.
