Great for small families

This book is perfect for couples; many recipes make just two servings, everything I've made was very tasty, yet nothing required a whole lot of work. The suggested side dishes have been excellent with the entrees, as well. These recipes are especially welcome when I've had a hard day at work, because I can create a delicious dinner in a short time and then have the rest of my evening free. Many thanks for such a great cookbook--it's worth every peny!

Great main dish recipes, and MORE!

This is a great resource for cooks on a tight schedule. The book offers a nice variety of entrees, including a number of excellent vegetarian dishes, and I really appreciate the side dish and dessert suggestions. This is a useful, unique cookbook that would make an appetizing addition to anyone's collection.

What's for Dinner?

This is a fantastic, handy cookbook, perfect for a home cook who is trying to break out of a recipe rut. It also would make a great gift for someone graduating college and getting a first apartment, or for someone who is single and maybe getting weary of constant carry-out. The recipes are simple, with basic ingredients, and mostly prepare two servings (although many can be doubled).

The book is all main courses and loosely organized by main ingredient: fish, poultry, meat, meatless, etc. The layout is fantastic, with gorgeous photographs and blurbs with suggested side dishes, wines and desserts. Also, it opens and stays open to your work page, which makes it easy to refer to during cooking. The recipes are interesting, ranging from comfort food like chicken and dumplings to elegant meals to ethnic dishes, and all the ones I've tried have had successful results.

If you're a gourmet cook with unlimited ideas for family meals, then this will not be for you. But if you're a beginner, or someone who likes to prepare fresh meals but sometimes lacks inspiration or time to think about menus, this cookbook will be a welcome addition to your kitchen bookshelf.

Best cookbook I own

I've cooked several pasta and seafood recipes from this book and they are all winners. The recipes all seem well-tested and accurate. Best of all, the book suggests accompanying side dishes and desserts that are well placed.

This is a cookbook that gets used!

Simple and delicious recipes. Each recipe includes helpful suggestions for throwing together a full meal in no time at all. Lots of pictures too.

This cookbook doesn't just sit on the shelf. We use it all the time, and many of the recipes have become family staples.
