Introduction
I must admit, I am a cookbook-a-holic! I tend to collect them, and I have been doing so for 25 years - as you might guess I have amassed quite a large collection of them over that time span! In fact, I have two rows full of my...
Pros: A must have for any kitchen! Cons: Some recipes may be listed under a uncommon name.

Pros: Comprehensive, easy to use cookbook that is very informative Cons: Absolutely nothing
I have to admit I have been sitting on this review for a while just not sure how to start it or where to begin. I mean, after all, it's only a cookbook, right? OK, I really don't believe that, but sometimes it's hard to figure out where to start ...
Pros: Good, solid comfort foods and handy reference material Cons: Not very adventurous
Growing up my mom had this cook book in her kitchen and she gave me a copy as a wedding shower gift. Over the years, my mom has had several editions of the book. I think I'm on my second or third edition as well. This is your basic mom-type-cooking...
What’s for dinner? Does that ring clear to most of you? It sure does to me, and after 32 years, although I love to cook, it does get tiring. Oh well, we all need to eat!
Through the years I have quite a collection of cookbooks. There are some...
Pros: Many great recipes and helpful hints Cons: It is hard to decide which recipe to make
I love to cook and bake. I started at a very young age, around about 6 years old. I would follow my mother ( who is a magnificent cook), around the kitchen, watching everything she did, and taking it all in. Then the Mothers Day right after my sixth...
Pros: Great variety of classic and newer recipes. Cons: NONE!
First off, the copy of the Better Homes & Gardens Cookbook I am reviewing is the 2000 limited edition printing. Along with all of the wonderful recipes that this cookbook already carries, their is a special "favorite recipes" section....

Pros: Helped a complete novice (ME!) learn to cook! Cons: None
When I married at the age of 19, I knew absolutely nothing about cooking. My husband loves to tell the story of the first meal I attempted to cook for him. It began with a box of Hamburger Helper and a pound of hamburger. It ended with me crying, "How...
Pros: Ease of use, variety, helpful hints, many charts, cooking basics, durable, food is sooooooo yummy! Cons: Inside cover peeled up, no pages for my own recipes
When my husband and I got married, I had not a clue what I was doing in the kitchen. The primary purpose of a kitchen, as far as I was concerned, was to have a place to keep plates on which you could put take-out Chinese food. (Mmmm... Yummy) However, ...
Pros: Great variety of recipes, easy to use set up, tons of helpful hints Cons: NONE!!
I purchased a paperback version of this book when I first got married 19 years ago. Eventually, that book just fell completely apart! Not because it was badly made, but because it was generously used. I then purchased this newer ringbound version and...
Pros: Wide variety, "cheat sheets" for lots of meats and vegetables. Cons: Some of the recipes aren't very exciting.
My fiance was already living in our new home 6 states away when it came time to register for wedding gifts, so I took my mother along to the local department store. This was a good idea. Obviously, she's been "playing house" longer than I've been alive...
Pros: covers a wide variety of recipes, organized well, lots of extras in the way of info Cons: I wish it listed nuturitional value on it's recipes
This is a must-have cookbook, even for those cooks who know their way around the kitchen. This is a basic cookbook covering everything from "Appetizers & Snacks" to "Desserts." In fact, it is organized into 20 sections, 18 of...
Pros: TONS of recipes and very helpful hints Cons: None!
I will admit it. When I got married, I didn't know the first thing about cooking. I didn't even know what it meant to marinate. But, luckily I got this cookbook as a wedding gift. It is the most helpful book I have ever seen. It covers all the basics-...
New for the '90s, America's #1 cookbook returns in a totally new and revised 10th edition. Bantam's bestselling backlist cookbook has more recipes, mo...More at Barnes & Noble.com
