The $5 Chef Family Cookbook : Great-Tasting Food on a Budget!

Rating:
Summary: Great teaching tool for the new cook in the family
Review: I am using this cookbook to teach my god-daughter how to help out more in the kitchen. She has always been a picky eater, but we noticed when she is involved in the cooking she is a much more adventurous eater. The glossary, herb charts, and tips are good teaching aids. The recipes are easy, but interesting enough to please the whole family without breaking the budget. (She loves the lettuce wraps.)

Summary: Somewhat disappointed
Review: The tips listed in this book are fairly common sense ones. The recipies are organized poorly--all lumped together in an A to Z fashion. I don't feel any closer to being able to feed my family a MEAL for $5 after reading this book. Some of the recipies do look intersting though.
