The Good Home Cookbook

A couple of months ago, I signed up to review the Good Home Cookbook. I didn't really know what to expect when I signed up, except that I was looking for good food that was easy to make and wouldn't require too much planning.

What I got was a whole lot more!

The book is full of tips and tricks for preparing different foods, such as chicken, fish, meats, and other things. There are great references for conversions, substitutions, canning and food preparation, among other things. I gave a copy of The Good Home Cookbook to my mother-in-law as well, and we have had fun discussing which recipes we like, and which ones we can't wait to try. My personal favorite is a recipe for steak kababs using a marinade that is so perfect, I use it for tons of stuff! One of my families favorites, too, is the recipe for chicken noodle cassarole.

The thing I like the best about it is that most of the food is all homemade, but using things that are easy to find. I like feeling like I am making the best food choices I can for my family, and this cookbook allows me to do just that. Often times, when I find myself planning meals for the week, all of them come from just flipping the pages of the book and seeing something that looks delicious!

The best part about The Good Home Cookbook is that the recipes aren't intimidating to try, and the ones I have tried have been hard to mess up. Many that I've done even allow some wiggle room for me to make substitutions or eliminations (for mushrooms, for example) that don't cause the final product to be an inedible mess.

I strongly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys cooking, or is looking for some great, easy, family friendly recipes! Please check it out!
