Reader Reviews:

Good Nutritional Information but... (2/4 people found this helpful)

be aware that some of recipes have a lot of added sugar. Not good if you're on any kind of diet!

handy helper (3/3 people found this helpful)

This book is a handy helper with lots of great ideas. The recepies are simple to follw and not too footery. I wish they would advise which dishes could be frozen and there are no top tips to alter the meals - as they do in the magazing - but this is still a gem of a book and a perfect size to have in the kitchen.

My Favourite Recipe Book (4/4 people found this helpful)

Great, easy to follow recipe's that are guaranteed to be both filling and tasty. I highly recommend the Pumpkin and Bean Spaghetti (pp 66-67)!

The only down side is that this book - like many recipe books - expects you to be feeding a family. I would have liked to have seen more recipe's aimed at serving 2 or fewer people.

Sterling Stuff (7/7 people found this helpful)

This little book was great. Had plenty of choice, book was well set out and the recipies were very easy to follow and the majority were relatively quick to make (vital for when you get home from work starving and could eat your body weight in food before turning on the kettle nevermind the oven). Having tried two of the recipies on the weekend (and not having killed anyone as a result) I declare this book a success!!

A great lil' cook book (18/18 people found this helpful)

There's a whole series of these '101...' recipe books from Good Food Magazine, and they're all bang on the money. The lay-out is concise (there's a recipe on one page, and a nice, clear photo of what the dish should look like on the adjacent page) and the recipes are simple and easy to follow; no single recipe is broken down into more than 4 steps. Of course, I haven't tried them all, but those I have were all successful ('Baked Buttery Squash' is my most recent favourite). What's more, you hardly notice the fact that they're all low fat.

I wouldn't say this is the only cook book you'll ever need, but it's definitely a worthy addition to anyone's collection regardless of whether you're looking to lose weight or not.
