Cooking with Mickey and the Disney Chefs2 reviews
Pam Brandon

Disney Editions, 2004

Great for fans of Disney and cooking!

This is a great resource for recipes everywhere from Disney World, Disneyland, Disney Resorts, as well as Disney's Cruiseline. I've only tried one recipe so far (the Honey Sesame Chicken) and it was devine (frying in a non-stick pot helps). When I find more time I plan on trying many others.

One day my husband brought this cookbook home as a gift and it literally changed the way I cook. I began with two recipes, one "un buon spaghetatta" and the other a white bean soup.
