The Best Running Shoes: Reviews & Comparisons

[Joelen]

Which would you say is the best ones to have? Why?

 

[DebbieJ]

All the Best!

I think the new 29 mins to Dinner is going to kick some serious butt.

 

[pamperedlinda]

Yep, I agree.

All the Best & 29 Minutes to Dinner.

 

[ljeffries]

All the Best, also. It has a ton of recipes for every situation.

I too love "All the Best"!

I am anxious to get the "29 Minutes to Dinner". I don't have it yet, so I can't comment on that one.

Here's what I tell customers who want to know about each cookbook....

All the Best is a great compilation of wonderful recipes that, for the most part, were included in Season's Best cookbooks in years past. It has great, easy recipes, and is a nice, well-rounded cookbook, in my opinion.

Casual Cooking is a cookbook that boasts all areas as well, but it also offers lots of salads, as well as some great "outdoor" recipes, such as grilling recipes. The desserts are really yummy, too!!

Main Dishes will soon be gone, but it's name is pretty self-explanatory. There is a section which shows a few recipes with "planned overs" in them. This would be things like, roasting a pork roast today, then use the leftovers tomorrow for a completely different recipe.

Stoneware Inspirations is all Stoneware recipes. It has some great classics in there, and also has a "cooking for 2" section, which many people find helpful.

It's Good For You has low-fat recipes. It primarily focuses on the low-fat angle, but it gives the nutritional information in other categories as well, so other "diets" can use the information easily as well. There are some really great recipes in here! While it may be low on fat, they certainly aren't low on flavor!! I HIGHLY recommend the Fresh Tomato and Basil Bruschetta recipe in this cookbook!! It's a winner!!

Cooking for 2 or more....Now, it's just my opinion, but I think that this cookbook is best served to those who live near the ocean, as it's chock-ful of seafood recipes! This is a more "upscale" dining type of cookbook, and is not a "family" cookbook. Good for empty nesters, perhaps, or young couples who are without small children.

Delightful Desserts is, well, delightful!! lol I don't think this one needs any explanation, as the pictures truly are worth a thousand words!!


Hope that helps you!!

All The Best is my favorite too!
Whenever customers ask me what book to get I tell them to start with that one!:thumbup: :thumbup:

29 Minutes to Dinner may be the next HUGE winner for cookbooks. :love: :love:
I just got mine today and I am compiling a LONG list of ingredients that I want to buy so I can test out a ton of these recipes!

The last two cookbooks that came out really just didn't do it for me. :yuck:
This one (and this new SB) ROCK!:balloon: :angel: :balloon:

I usually recommend All the Best and Casual Cooking (esp. to those who like to grill). Can't wait to try the new 29 Min. to Dinner recipes!

I bought the Delightful Desserts as a guest before I was a consultant, and used it a lot for desserts and baking - probably more then than now! I'm a baker at heart, though, so for bakers, that's definitely a winner. I sell a lot of the "It's Good For You" and have had some good feedback on it as well.

Cooking for 2 and more - I have actually had people return this b/c of the amount of fish in it (and they don't eat fish), but if people love fish, this is a good one for them.

I eventually had to get all of the cookbooks b/c many people like to look through all of them and then decide. I have to bring them all to my hosts' house tomorrow night for this very reason (when she booked the show she asked me to bring them!).

All the best. Also, I just wanted to mention that I hate the cooking for 2 or more cookbook. There's just not anything in their that I would ever make. I'm a simple coutry gal myself.

 

[dianevill]

All the Best, 29 Minutes moving in fast!

Not a huge fan of Cooking for 2 and More either (and I know this is weird, but "and More" just doesn't fit in the title for me. It sounds odd, like a store nearby named "Just Oak and More." )

 

[heat123]

Ditto as all the rest! ATB and 29 Min!

 

[mpkegley]

I agree that All the Best is my favorite and I have not seen the 29 minutes cookbook yet, but plan on getting that really soon!

 

[ginamkiely]

All The Best for sure. I've made most of the recipes in there and although i'm a picky eater, my family and friends have loved EVERYTHING i've made!

 

[chefann]

I'm jumping in on the All The Best bandwagon. And I think the 29-Minute book will be a real popular one, too. I've only made a couple of things from it, but they were both really tasty.

I think those 2 will be my top sellers in September.

BTW- if you really want to sell cookbooks in September, get all of them, and take them to your shows. People will be more likely to buy them when they can flip through and see the recipes and pictures. You can order them at the guest special price this month on a personal order. (see the policies and procedures for details)

 

[ChefBeckyD]

ME too for All The Best as my favorite, and also thinking that 29 Minutes is going to be huge! (I'm gonna make it huge w/ my customers!)

The other ones that I like the most are Casual Cooking and It's Good For You. There are alot of recipes in It's Good For You that have become family favorites,
including Pronto Pizza Patties, Shrimp & Linguine, Smashed Potato Soup.......

29 Mins!!!! The recipes are so fast and easy, and my family loves them! I have made 4 or 5 of the recipes so far and they've all been hits in a family of picky eaters!

 

[Christ Follower]

All the best!

I didn't care for the "spin on salads" cookbook. Not a lot in there I would do.
