Rachael Ray's Big Orange Book: Her Biggest Ever Collection of All-New 30-Minute Meals Plus Kosher Meals, ...3 reviews
Rachael Ray

Clarkson Potter, 2008

Quintessential Rachael
If you watch Ray's show or have other cookbooks by the author, and you looked through Rachael Ray's Big Orange Book without glancing at the cover, you would immediately know it was hers. To begin with, it's loaded with her unique language--EVOO (extra virgin olive oil,) "sammies" (sandwiches,) and more. The largest section of the book is comprised of Ray's famous 30 minute meals. This ... 		  
  







  
  
Fix, Freeze, Feast: More than 125 recipes to prepare in bulk and by the serving36 reviews
Kati Neville, Lindsay Tkacsik

Storey Publishing, LLC, 2007

Delicious, Fast, Easy....
I bought this book to aid in dinner prep during the bewitching hour. I made 5 recipes. They go together fairly quickly and quite easily. Once they are thawed (some can be cooked from a frozen state - recipes give specific instructions for re-heating) they are simple to cook, making meal preparation a snap. My 3 kids liked the recipes, as did my husband (who is a culinary professional) and I. ... 		  
  







  
  
15-Minute Low-Carb Recipes: Instant Recipes for Dinners, Desserts, and More64 reviews
Dana Carpender

Fair Winds Press, 2003

Great, Quick Low Carb
I purchased this book at COSTCO for very cheap. I've been on the lowcarb lifestyle off and on. The recipes are 15 minutes start to finish and taste great. I am considered a very good cook by friends and family and have been impressed with the wide range of flavors. Other reviews of "very hard to find ingredients" is just not true. This has become our go-to recipe book for the week when we ...

Great Slow Cooking Cookbook
This is a great reference cookbook filled with great recipes, product reviews, kitchen tips, cooking how-to's, and much more. I love all the Cook's Illustrated books.

The Big Book of Recipes for Babies, Toddlers & Children: 365 Quick, Easy, and Healthy Dishes24 reviews
Bridget Wardley, Judy More

Duncan Baird, 2006

Great easy ways to cook for a little person.
I found this book so easy to follow. The recipes are quick and my 15 month toddler loves what I make out the book. I am not the best cook so easy and quick works for me. Plus my toddler is not patient. 		  
  







  
  
Jacques Pépin More Fast Food My Way5 reviews
Jacques Pepin

Houghton Mifflin, 2008

I think like this
Jacques is my absolute favorite american chef. His recipes, with the shadows of France and Italy, entice me the way few other chefs do. This book is beyond good, it's a continual declaration of Jacques' dedication to his art. His production quality is high, like always, and when you sit back and *read* the book, well, it hits the mark. Which mark? How to make great food on a Tuesday night, ... 		  
  







  
  
Joey Green's Fix-It Magic: More than 1,971 Quick-and-Easy Household Solutions Using Brand-Name Products3 reviews
Joey Green

Rodale Books, 2008

Joey Green's Fix-It Magic
Light reading and practical ideas for common household repairs. I used the method presented for taking down all the wallpaper in our kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms using a bucket of vinegar and water; much cheaper and more practical than going out to buy products that don't work. Also, this book provides fun ways to spend time with my children experimenting with the various methods; they find ... 		  
  







  
  
Simply Scones: Quick and Easy Recipes for More than 70 Delicious Scones and Spreads21 reviews
Leslie Weiner, Barbara Albright

St. Martin's Griffin, 1988

There is no love sincerer than the love of food. - George Bernard Shaw
Somewhere in the past year or two I have developed a real yen for scones. We used to have a tea house and various coffee houses in my city that served them, and I would occasionally buy one when the mood hit. Then all of a sudden my city was sconeless. I couldn't get a scone to save my life. I drove to every coffee place and bakery I could find... nothing. So I decided I'd make my own. I ... 		  
  







  
  
American Heart Association Quick & Easy Cookbook: More Than 200 Healthful Recipes You Can Make in Minutes ...27 reviews
American Heart Association

Clarkson Potter, 2001

Except for the lack of pictures.....
this is an excellent cookbook. A lot of few ingredient recipes, and lots of recipes that don't call for exotic ingredients. I hate finding a good recipe and then there's that one ingredient that I don't have on hand, or worse yet, one that I have to go to a gourmet store to find. None of that in this book!

Fun With Grammar: 75 Quick Activities & Games That Help Kids Learn About Nouns, Verbs, Adjectives, Adverbs, ...6 reviews
Laura Sunley

Scholastic, 2002

Hands on grammar!
I have many grammar activity books, but this is definitely the best! It includes many ideas for learning grammar in a way kids don't even realize they are learning because they are having so much fun doing them! For example, my students loved to make "animal prepositional poems". I had another teacher borrow the book, and she bought it herself! With this book you are teaching quality not ... 		  
  







  
  
Quick Vegetarian Pleasures: More than 175 Fast, Delicious, and Healthy Meatless Recipes27 reviews
Jeanne Lemlin

William Morrow Cookbooks, 1992

The book's title says it all.
Jeanne Lemlin is one of my favorite cookbook authors. Her recipes ALWAYS succeed. They are well-written and friendly and contain a nice diversity of dishes. If she says a recipe is "simple" or "quick" to prepare it will be. The dishes ALWAYS taste good. Vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike will enjoy any of her books. Quick Vegetarian Pleasures is full of winners! 		  
  







  
  
Even More Top Secret Recipes: More Amazing Kitchen Clones of America's Favorite Brand-Name Foods12 reviews
Todd Wilbur

Plume, 2002

Fun and interesting, but I got mixed results
If the poor condition of the library copy is any indication, Even More Top Secret Recipes is a very popular book! Todd Wilbur has a number of books, and it can be a little confusing sorting them out. There are three "Top Secret Recipes" books, Top Secret Recipes, More Top Secret Recipes (this book) and Even More Top Secret Recipes. These books focus on what Wilbur calls "convenience foods." ... 		  
  







  
  
Betty Crocker One-Dish Meals: Casseroles, Skillet Meals, Stir-Fries and More for Easy, Everyday Dinners ...6 reviews
Betty Crocker Editors

Betty Crocker, 2004

Great cookbook for someone wanting easy recipes
For me, this is a perfect cookbook. I don't have a lot of room in my kitchen. I want meals I can cook quickly. The recipes is food that you pretty much throw together in a hurry. Even the more intricate recipes are easy. These are the kind of meals that women cooked in the 50s, '60s and '70s before the Food Network got middle America women (and yes men too) wanting to be gourmet chefs. If I had ... 		  
  







  
  
More Quick Team-Building Activities for Busy Managers: 50 New Exercises That Get Results in Just 15 Minutes2 reviews
Brian Cole Miller

AMACOM, 2007

Great follow-up, with one added bonus
This book is similar to Miller's first book of teambuilding activities. Once again, all the activities are quick, easy to manage and require few props. Even though I really liked his first book and go to it frequently, I was a bit reluctant to pick this second one up, fearing that maybe these activities weren't on par with the first volume. I was wrong. They are every bit as fun and effective ... 		  
  







  
  
Perfect Light Desserts: Fabulous Cakes, Cookies, Pies, and More Made with Real Butter, Sugar, Flour, and ...6 reviews
Nick Malgieri, David Joachim

William Morrow Cookbooks, 2006

Lightened Desserts Done Right. Buy It.
`Perfect Light Desserts' by baking teacher extraordinare, Nick Malgieri and veteran cookbook author David Joachim is a classic meld of baking technique and substitution cooking, fitting the skills of the two authors. There is probably no other baking writer's work on a `healthy' baking book I would expect more from than Malgieri, since I always go to his books first whenever there is a specific ... 		  
  







  
  
More Easy Beans: Quick and tasty bean, pea and lentil recipes6 reviews
Trish Ross

BookSurge Publishing, 2007

I never thought bean dishes could be this tasty
I have never been a bean lover but am a vegetarian. So when I discovered More Easy Beans and found so many great recipes, especially for appetizers, I was hooked. I truly believe this is the best bean book I have ever used. Some recipes call for meat, but of course, everyone has a friend who likes red meat. What I really found helpful was the recipes all use a can of beans or allow you to make ... 		  
  







  
  
The Big Book of Buds, Vol. 2: More Marijuana Varieties from the World's Great Seed Breeders5 reviews
Ed Rosenthal

Quick American Archives, 2004

Treat yourself to more buds
I loved the first Big Book of Buds so I was surprised that there could be even more marijuana varieties to learn about and sample. The book includes some new breeders as well as many of the seed companies that have been refining marijuana for decades. With its bright colors and close-up bud photography this book is truly eye candy.

Grace Parisi

Harvard Common Press, 2005

very thorough collection, inviting and approachable
I've been a subscriber to Food and Wine magazine for years and have really come to depend on Parisi's recipes. So when I read about her book Get Saucy recently, I was very excited for its release. I found the collection of recipes to be thorough and the recipes themselves concise and totally approachable. I've nearly made my way through the pesto chapter and particularly loved the Wild ... 		  
  







  
  
More Marijuana Varieties from the World's Great Seed Breeders (The Big Book of Buds, Vol. 3)2 reviews

Quick American, 2007

The Big Book of Buds, Vol 3
An excellent, comprehensive encyclopaedia of the variety of marijuana available around the world. For anyone (especially here in CA, where medical cannabis is legal) who has access to purchasing pot, this is a serious guide book -- attractively designed, with ample color photos for identification of dozens of strains. Valuable and fascinating.
