I used one recipe for multiple dishes

I found a recipe of a sauce that you can use to cook salmon, pork and chicken and it's so easy to make. Some of the recipes were not that tasty.

I purchased the book and marked the pages of the recipes I wanted to try. the first one being Catalan Stew. It took me about 30 to 4o minutes to pep the food for cooking, not the 15 as stated. But when I purchased all the ingredients. laid them out and started to follow the instructions. I was left with ingredients such as the beef stock and the garlic. Not a big deal, I figured it out but was surprised and the mishap on the first recipe.

In the end, the food is good and its fun to cook in my cooker.

I thought this book would have a little more 'from' scratch recipes . There is a large selection of dishes to try.

I've been waiting all night for the rice pudding recipe to magically appear from my crockpot. I did exactly what the recipe said but at a certain point I knew the recipe was going to take a lot longer. When the author said cook another 30 minutes - I had to cook the rice for another hour and forty-five minutes. The result was a very creamy rice pudding with a hint of lemon zest which I really like. The rice I used is called arborio and is used in risotto. I'm thinking I could try some basmati rice next time. AND, instead of the large amount of sugar called for in the recipe I used four packets of stevia. I may use five or six packets next time, although it is easy enough to stir in some stevia powder at the end. I haven't tried any other recipes from this book but hope to make something else soon.

Quite a lot of variation , some good combinations of ingredients. My favourite recipe here is still the Tomato Soup, easy to make and well worth it just to taste !

I prepared the tea recipe with ginger and turmeric. It was delicious. I'm looking forward to trying more recipes soon.

Some recipes have an unusual combination of ingredients that I would never use together.

I have probably made more recipes from this cookbook than any of the others I own. All but one were really great, and the worst I can say about the other was that it was pretty good (chipotle chicken bites were a little too sweet for me, but the next day in a rice bowl they were just right). And the weeknight/easy part is no joke - these are all genuinely easy. Best of all, most of the recipes appeal to BOTH of my kids, which is downright miraculous. They really liked the Mexican street corn in particular.

This has unusual recipes to add variety to meals. I loved the carrot and orzo dish. I even use the dressing for eggplant and other applications. Be warned, there are many ingredients used in these recipes but it's all good. Not easy but very good.

I'm a picky eater so some of the recipes weren't for me but lots of them were and gave me ideas for other ingredients

I wanted to be able to cook more than one chicken for when there is a bunch of people coming. This looks like it is going to work great. I will probably be trying it out this week.

I bought this on a whim, looking for more interesting sides. I got my wish and then some more. I made 3-4 dishes and all turned out good. Chickpeas with ketchup were a revelation - quick and easy but an interesting, unusual flavor that my family enjoyed. The chard and new potato curry was also good, and again, something that put some spice and variety in our meals. I can't wait to cook the chiles stuffed with beans and the kale and mushroom lasagna. I bookmarked about 15 recipes, a huge number as I have been known to leaf through entire books and find no recipes that are worth adding to my collection. I got the kindle edition, so I cannot comment on the print layout, but this has allowed me to go back to the book in doctors' waiting rooms or other short unproductive periods of time.

Just like my Filipina girlfriend used to make

Cooked up my first batch this morning using chicken and the slow/traditional method. I first took the dark meat chicken and cut it into 1/4" slices.  I marinated a pound of chicken overnight with the tocino mix adding about a half a tablespoon of sesame seed oil. I put the contents into a wok, added water to cover the meat, brought to a boil, and then slow simmered for about an hour and a half until the water was evaporated. I cooked for taste which for me is just a bit burnt where the sugars in the mix caramelize.

After cooked I sliced and diced the cooked meat and added it atop a garden salad where the sweetness of the tocino was a good match for the tartness of the Italian dressing. Used this way the pound of chicken will be enough for about five or six salads.

So far I have enjoyed all the recipes I have tried. The herb coated tilapia, shrimp provencal, and the black bean soup are just a few that I have loved so far. I do not consider myself very proficient in the kitchen. I need a recipe to make anything good. With this cookbook I feel like I'm eating a gourmet meal even though it was so easy to make. I also have her slow cooker cookbook and have enjoyed that too!
