(More customer reviews)I have subscribed to Pillsbury's Classic Cookbooks since 1994. Suffice it to say that I am a big fan of this series and I have kept every issue with the exception of the ones that were lost. When I got a card from Pillsbury announcing the publication of this collection of favorites from the magazines, I ordered it immediately.
Several things that make the Pillsbury books and this one in particular, great, are: 1. The recipes don't have a lot of ingredients or things that aren't readily available, 2. They appeal to a lot of cooking tastes, and 3. They are absolutely delicious. I love soup and the Harvest Chicken Noodle Soup and the Light Chicken-Wild Rice Soups are both favorites. The Poultry section, another favorite, provides delights such as Easy Jerk Chicken, Honey Mustard Chicken, and a scrumptious Twenty-Garlic Chicken Dinner.
As for the layout of the book, you will be pleased. Nutritional information is provided for each recipe so people watching calories or fat intake will know if the recipe fits their plan. For many recipes, there are 'Cook's Notes' which offer suggestions for attaining the best results. The photos, and there are many, will make you salivate. There is even a special section at the end entitled Holiday Specialties, and this provides the reader with recipes for salads, appetizers, side dishes, main courses and desserts that will work for a variety of holiday traditions.
Bottom line: Buy the book! It will be a keeper and you'll love the results.
