Detailed Instructions

This cookbook is amazing. The recipes and menu suggestions are categorized by seasons: spring, summer, fall and winter. There are three additional chapters, Big Bashes, Breakfast for Health Conscious Friends and Breakfast Basics. The Shopping Guide and the Game Plan are helpful organizing tools not included in most cookbooks. The Game plan is my favorite. It gives instructions on prepping and preparing the meal up to two weeks in advance. An invaluable tool for those with time constraints. Here are some of the recipes included in the book. Strawberry-Orange Juice, Parmesan Toast, Cinnamon Pineapple, Fresh Pear and Vanilla Muffins, Double Corn and Chili Pancakes, Jim Dodge's Nutmeg Pear Pie, Swedish Potato Sausage, and Walnut Cinnamon-Chocolate Coffee Cake are some of the more exotic additions, but there are plenty of the basic fare to satisfy a fussy eater.

Every recipe looks wonderful. The menus are appealing and there is great variety - something for every occasion and every taste.

One of the best written/detailed breakfast cookbooks ever.

Very easy to follow the recipes and the food is great and is something everyone can make. I have tried several on my family and we all love it.
