Book Review: Fast and Frugal Cookbook

fast and frugal cookbook
by Dawn Hall

ISBN: 1595552901

The name of the book caught this busy mom’s eye. Cookbooks that say that they are for fast and busy people seem to be something that I just can’t be without. It had recipes that were with 7 or less ingredients, the nutritional information, and easy instructions all in less than 30 minutes. Wouldn’t that make any Mom just want to jump in and see if it was all that???

In life, sometimes the Internet can fulfill many things except being able to take it to places that computers aren’t allowed. I love cookbooks! This cookbook has recipes that are simple and fun which is a rarity. I loved the helpful hints and the short ingredient lists.

The one thing the cookbook really lacked were lots of photos. For a visual person, this is a must – I need to look at my inspirations if I’m going to put forth the effort to cook a meal that I have never tried before or don’t like the ingredients.

This would be a great gift for a wedding present for a new family that has rarely cooked. The detail instructions are just perfect to prepare the most delightful meal.

This is one book that I will keep that I have received through the Thomas Nelson’s Book Review Program. I was not compensated in any way other than receiving a free book for review.
