This is my "No-fail" cookbook

I'm not much of a cook, but this is my all time favorite cookbook. I have never made a meal from this book that didn't turn out really well. Even a beginner can be successful with this cookbook. I especially like the fact that the recipes call for mostly fresh ingredients as opposed to canned items.

What a great book

I have used this book, and others in the series, for years now. There are numerous recipes of quick delicious food that really do take only 30 minutes to prepare. Each page or two is a menu suggesting appetizer, side dishes and a main dish and desert, along with a wine suggestion. I pick and mix the dishes or just run through a whole menu. They have basic dishes and dishes from around the world. Nothing is too complicated and the instructions are very clear. The photographs make everything look great. Highly recommended.
