Dinner Review

I received a copy of Dinner and I was totally excited to start paging through it and bookmarking what I'd like to make. This book had me marking just about every page! Everything looks delicious and easy to make. Most things my picky kids would like as well. It is also great as a last minute reference, when you are wondering what exactly you should make for dinner. It is broken down by ingredients. For example, if you have chicken in your fridge, just turn to the chapter on chicken and voila there  you will have recipes that use chicken as the main part of the meal. This makes using the cookbook very easy. This book has everything you could possibly need to get dinner on the table very quickly. It takes a lot of the thinking out of it which on some evenings is very much appreciated. The only downside is that some of the items are a little spicy for my kids taste. I tend to skip over the recipes that I know my kids wont't eat. But all in all this book is a treasure trove of wonderful dinners that your family will love. I highly recommend adding this cookbook to your collection. I received a copy of this cookbook for free in exchange for my honest review from Blogging for Books.

I received a copy of the One Pan & Done cookbook at a time where I feel like I am in a rut with making healthy and flavorful dinners that my kids actually want to eat. This cookbook is perfect and gives you so many wonderful ideas for family dinners that are quick and easy. My kids loved the Tomato Galette with Savory Oat Crumble, and the Baked Spring Risotto. I can't wait to try the chocolate molten caramel mini cakes and the Cookies and Cream Upside down cake. The book is broken down into chapters by the type of Meat you will be using which I find very helpful. There is a recipe for whatever you have in the fridge. There are also many vegetables included with the recipes so you feel as if your family is getting a well balanced meal. Overall this cookbook will get a lot of use. I highly recommend picking up a copy of this book if you, like me are in a rut and need new and fresh ideas for dinner.

The Dumpling Galaxy Cookbook Review

I was so super excited to get to review The Dumpling Galaxy Cookbook. I've always wanted to try making my own dumplings. This book is great in that it gives you so many varieties to choose from. From sweet to savory they are all included in this cookbook. Also, you can use the premise dumpling wrappers from the supermarket to make most of these which makes them so easy and convenient. I can see myself getting a lot of use out of this cookbook and am so happy to be able to add it to my collection. Instead of going for takeout, I can now make these at home with my own ingredients and there are so many varieties. If you like dumplings, get this cookbook!

I was excited to get my hands on a copy of Eat Beautiful by Wendy Rowe. This book is a comprehensive guide to beauty on the outside. Instead of just being a cookbook, this book starts out by talking about good digestion and how to detoxify your body. There are a few detox recipes. All look interesting, but I'm not sure I will try them anytime soon. The recipes are broken down by season with the philosophy that eating in season is whats best for your body. The recipes were all quite interesting. I can't wait to try the Cucumber and Mango Salsa and the Kiwi Pancakes. Overall a great addition to any cookbook collection and a lot of helpful practical advice on how to look your best.

Martha Stewarts Vegetables Review

I was excited to receive a copy of Martha Stewarts Vegetables. I love finding new ways to cook with vegetables so that my kids will eat them. This book is packed with healthy recipes for main dishes and sides. The book is broken into chapters based on Vegetables so if you have a certain vegetable to use up you can simply flip to that section and find a recipe for it. The only disappointment I found were that a lot of the dishes contained a pasta or starch and wasn't simply just vegetable dishes. Many of the recipes didn't look very kid friendly but I am excited to try them out anyway. Some of the recipes I am most excited to try are the Watercress and Asparagus Pizza, Spiced Parsnip Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting, and the Sesame Carrot Slaw. Overall I think this is a cookbook that is worthy of a position in your collection. There are other more comprehensive vegetable cookbooks out thee, but Martha's style makes up for that in this book.
