Great cookbook
I love this cookbook. All the recipes are simple, easy to follow, and full of flavor. Everyone in my house has liked everything we’ve made so far. I especially love that it has pictures for each recipe. I like to see what I’m about to make!

Such a great cook book! A plus , love!
I actually heard of this book off a short from the infamous chicken cobbler. I make that chicken cobbler at the least once a week in cold seasons. So after hearing his story, he said his husband actually took every picture in this book, his husband rearranged all the food and organized it. I really respect that. So I wanted to get my copy before they were gone. I’m so thankful I did. In our home, it’s always touch n go, move move move. Work home sleep- rinse dry repeat. So these recipes came in super handy- they are super easy to follow. This book is full of relatable , can make any time, type of recipes. My husbands favorite go to- need an idea to make something for dinner? How about really nice Salisbury steak?! On top of all of that, did I mention alot of the recipes are crockpot, one pan, throw it in the oven types?! Those are my favorites especially when I put it on before work and cook it all day, and come home to the house smelling amazing and the food ready to finish up and eat! Thank you so much, I love this book and it will now be an absolute staple in my kitchen. Love it! Totally reccommend! None of my pages are blank. None of my book is ruined or chipped or scratched in anyway. So get you a book, so you can fix you a plate -and keep it simple !

Love the author, some of the recipes left out key instructions
I am a dumb human in the kitchen. Please tell me if I will need cheddar cheese or not for the Cheddar Bay biscuit mix, or what to do with my pasta except “add in pasta” — do I cook it first or no??? It’s a casserole and I have heard both ways. Anyway, the recipes are delicious, and most of them he has a video that answered the question. Plenty of open space to write a note though. I bought this and come fix you a plate. 🙂

Simply Perfect!
This is the most unpretentious cookbook I have ever cracked open! He tells you from the get-go to make the recipes your own. There’s no bougie chapters about needed tools and ingredients, because the ingredients are simple and the tools are items you likely already have!If you need a cookbook full of basic but tasty recipes you’ll actually make and that your family will really enjoy, this is it! Buy it, you won’t be sorry!

I follow the author on IG, and he’s such a joy to watch. I seem to have taken a break from cooking, and I wanted something to help me ease back into it. This cookbook, filled with easy, tasty recipes, is a gem. Everything we’ve made so far has been so good! The instructions are clear, the prep and cook times are accurate, and the recipes are easy enough for my 13yo son to follow! Even the pics of the food are great!
