Grade 3-5-This delightful sequel offers 29 recipes in five categories: breakfasts, snacks/sides, main courses, desserts/treats, and drinks. What better way to get kids to eat broccoli than to have them make "Boss Nass Broccoli?" The introduction provides basic safety tips and a list of tools needed. Most of the creatively named recipes, such as "Handmaiden Hash Browns," "Sith Speeder Sunrise," and "Amidala Challah," are simple to make and require few ingredients. However, the authors warn readers about those that take hours to prepare. The step-by-step directions are easy to read and follow. The highlight of the book is the glossy colorful photos of action figures in scenes with the prepared food. The pictures truly inspire readers to try the recipes. The pages are sturdy and shiny and easy to wipe clean. The spiral binding enables the book to stay open while cooking. It even includes a plastic stencil to decorate one of the dishes.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Pickle Jar Jar, Darth Double Dogs and Qui-Gon Jinn-ger Snaps are among the 29 recipes in The Star Wars Cookbook II: Darth Malt and More Galactic Recipes by Frankie Frankeny and Wesley Martin, photos by Frankeny. The fantastically styled dishes, many imaginatively presented with action figures, may be enough to lure Star Wars fans to the kitchens. For convenience, the pages lay flat in a concealed Wire-o binding and, for a fun extra, a Darth Maul template is included for help garnishing a dip or a cake.

My favorite Christmas present!
I LOVE this book! As I stated before, I got this for Christmas after taking up an interest in Star Wars, especially Episode I. And that was it. It started with some "Booma Breakfast Tarts" and I've been cooking ever since. I love the pictures of the action figures with the food. They really make you want to try the recipes. I've had it for two months and have made 11 recipes from it so far. Thursday is usually "Forceful Frittata Day". "Amidala Challah" was a hit at a bake sale I helped with. The "Darth Double Dogs" I made for my friends went over well (though they kept trying to fight with them at the table!) I just made some "Panakacakes". (A good thing is, if you want to make some of the things for a non-Star Wars related event, most of the recipes are just regular things with names like "Qui-Gon Jinn-ger Snaps" and "Anakin's Apple Crisp". No one will know if you don't tell them!) Even if you don't try the recipes, it's a fun book to just LOOK at.

I heavily reccomend this book to Star Wars Episode I fans with a mild interest in cooking. Also reccomended heavily are the "Wookiee Cookies" book and the "Party Book".

Good, but Wookiee Cookiees was better
Star Wars Cookbook was the best cookbook in the world. It hand strange recipes like Tusken Raider Taters and Twin Sun Toasties, but also fancy food like Han-Burgers, Greedo`s Burritos, Princess Leia Danish Dos, Jedi Juice Pops and the king recipe, Wookiee Cookiees.

I got this cookbook before Wookiee Cookiees in Christmas 2003. It was quite nice'. It featured funny names like Sith Speeder Sunrise, Handmaiden Hash Browns and Boss Nass Broccoli. The photos are amusing as in Wookiee Cookiees: Watto over few Watto Melon Cubes and Gungans fighting from Booma Breakfast Tarts. The pages are wipe clean, so Amidala Challah does not damage on it.

I love Sith Slush, so I had to make it on summer with my father.
Good, but Star Wars Cookbook 1 was better.

Star Wars Cookbook II
I Bought Both Star Wars CookBook II & Star Wars Wookie Cookies CookBook For Some Good Reasons, I am a Star Wars Fan Too, (Just like I'm a trekkie for the past 21 years.) Some of the recipes look absolutely delicious. If I try some recipies, for example Yoda Soda, Droid Dot Pizza, Anakin Apple Crisp or any other recipe I will let you know. May The Force Be With You.
