Customer Reviews

Awesome
This book is great for all those busy parents. Recipes are easy to make and quick. Best book out there.

Great cookbook for the family
The recipes in this cookbook are simple, tasty and healthy. Our whole family has enjoyed. We particularly like the Shrimp and Pepper Stir Fry and the Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies. Nice addition to a busy parent's cookbook collection.

Recipe Title "Rice A Roni and Chicken"?
I can't figure out how 'Rice a Roni and chicken' made it into a COOKBOOK that I paid for.

About the only interesting thing in this book was a recipe for corn muffins with broccoli.
