5/5 stars

Superb!!!! (2/3 people found this helpful)

Jeanette Orrey has finally written the book I have been searching for in years....I have 4 young kids and have been trying to find recipies which were good old fashioned meals like I was given as a child. Her values and beliefs regarding eating habits mirror my own - I have tried many of the dishes and the kids loved them (even the fussy child)!!! I am eagerly awaiting the second book arriving! Well Done Jeanette! Many thanks!

At last a book where the ingredients don't cost a fortune!! (7/7 people found this helpful)

This book is far and away the greatest book for those who are trying to manage a family budget but still want their family to eat healthily.I've been bought so many "cook" books in the past only to find that when I'm in the supermarket the combined price of ingredients that I may use only once makes the meal bad value and makes me reach for the easier and cheaper ready prepared option.These recipes are just what I've been looking for.Simple,clear,healthy and tasty and more importantly....Easy!! I'm no cook but this book has inspired me to think about my food and try lots of things from scratch.Jeanette is an inspiration to us all.

5/5 stars

Brilliant Cookbook (5/7 people found this helpful)

This book is filled with standard English fare. The recipes are clear and easy and so far they have all been successful. I'd agree the portions are large. I feed 7 on the amounts for 4.

5/5 stars

Excellent (14/17 people found this helpful)

Excellent book with really easy to understand recipes - be careful as the amount to feed 4 results in huge portions!

Home made chicken nuggets & Toms Sweet and Sour chicken a great success. A brilliant buy.

5/5 stars

Definetly one for regular use (23/26 people found this helpful)

As a busy family of 5 with 3 demanding and fussy kids and an equally fussy husband I can assure you that this book and the receipes in it are going to satisfy everyone.

I wish this book had been around 14 years ago when we had our eldest son, it would have saved me a lot of hassle.
