I love it!

I'm afraid I don't agree with the previous negative assessment of this book. I have been watching for a recipe collection for family meals that includes healthy, interesting choices using fresh ingredients and recipes that are not too difficult to put together in a hurry. This is it. Perhaps a more descriptive and less generic title would have been "On Beyond Meatloaf." Certainly the recipes contained are a little more difficult to put together than meatloaf or spaghetti, but I would not place them out of the "easy, everyday" category. Cooking with fresh ingredients will naturally take a little more time than the semi-homemade" choices available, but it is worth the few extra minutes in terms of nutrition and taste. Eash recipe is printed on a full page with big, color pictures and easy to follow instructions. I have already tried several of the recipes and they are all winners. Better Homes and Gardens comes through again with a stellar product! I intend to also purchase More Easy Everyday Cooking.

Great for men who need to learn how to cook.

Pictures, pictures, pictures. For those people that like to see the food before they attempt to make it this book is wonderful. Every page is like an ad trying to get you make the recipe. I'm very very visual and bored with food, this book has real recipies anybody can make. I wish the sections were more clearly divided but for the price it ain't bad and it won't make your head spin with 500 recipies that you''ll never look at, like the rest of my cookbooks gathering dust on the shelf.
