MY Thoughts:
I love this cookbook! Since there are three authors, each one of them share their favorite dish in each section. They also share if the recipe has a lower number of ingredients, if it is a low fat recipe, and if it is good for entertaining!
Our whole family together, so I thought, "Hmmm, this would be a great time to use this cookbook..." I chose the Chicken fettucine alfredo dish. It was sooooo super easy and absolutely delicious! Some of the comments I heard the kids say were...
MMM, this is good! Kind of like Olive Garden's but honestly, it tastes better than Olive Garden!" WOW- great compliment!
Man Mom, this is sooo good! and It really was fabulous!
My ingredients for the Chicken Alfredo
mmmmmm mmmmmm mmmmm GOOD!
The next recipe I chose to make was flavored butter to go on our corn-on-the-cob: Let me just say.... This was delicious! and talk about EASY!!!! It was super easy :)
If this doesn't say it all, I don't know what would :) My granddaughter loved it! cleaned her corn, her plate and pretty much- cleaned the cob LOL
Thank you Donna for the complimentary copy of this issue in exchange for my honest review!! I love this cookbook and would definitely recommend it!!
