Review # 1 was written on 2011-01-02 00:00:00 Mark Hausmann If you are looking for a cookbook with personality, then this is the one for you. I loved Elizabeth Fisher's stories spaced throughout the book. The recipes were very easy to make. They all used ingredients that you more then likely already have in your pantry. If they aren't in your pantry, you can likely catch them for real cheap on sale or using coupons. I know one of the things that happened to us was that we got stuck in a food rut. Since money has been tight, we seem to eat almost the same things week in and week out. Thankfully, this book helped to get us out of the rut. Now I am thinking outside the box and experimenting as well. And you want to know what makes this book even better? You can get it for $1 at your local Dollar Tree. How many books can you say you bought brand new for $1 that were digital? Tonight, I am making the recipe for Juliet's Chicken. One thing that is great about it is that it says whichever oil you choose. Just by changing the oil around, you get entirely different flavors. Plus you can add spices to it to give it your own unique flair. In conjunction with the Wakela's World Disclosure Statement, I received a product in order to enable my review. No other compensation has been received. My statements are an honest account of my experience with the brand. The opinions stated here are mine alone.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-02-23 00:00:00 Adam Pinto I found this cookbook rather entertaining with all the personal anecdotes interspersed between the recipes. There were some yummy recipes that I would like to try like the Butterfinger Brownies. This book is not for those on a diet because their was quite a bit of processsed stuff like processed cheese spread used in the appetizer section and brownie mix in the dessert section. Also used a great deal were refrigerated biscuits and biscuit mix. Canned foods as well. One thing I did find a little frustrating was the fact that some recipes called for a box of this and a bag of that but no specific ounces were listed. An inexperienced cook would find it difficult to judge how much exactly to use. Another thing about some of the recipes is that they said to pour something into a pan but did not say what size pan to use so that also was left to our judgment. For an experienced cook this is not as daunting but a novice cook would be intimidated. All in all, I did enjoy reading this book and want to try some of the recipes but it could have been better if some of the items I mentioned were changed. I obtained this copy I read from Net Galley for the purpsed of writing this review.
