Summary: Makes me look forward to cooking.
Comment: While finishing my graduate degree and trying to take care of a very hungry husband at the same time, I began to find myself hating the idea of being relegated to a 'domestic housewife' in order to complete my education. Amidst laundry, cleaning, cooking, and the clean-up after, I knew that watching daytime soaps and the gardening channel were just around the corner and that would be it, I would have to shoot myself.
My parents bought me this cookbook for Christmas, and I have been saved! Skillets, casseroles, and slow-cook meals that feed 4 - 8 people, most taking less than a half hour to prepare, with ingredients that are either easy to prepare, or come canned or frozen. Clean-up is a snap, I can grocery shop once every week and a half for meals that will last the entire time between, and the leftovers are enough to feed the hungry husband for lunch the next day.
I need to invest in a 3-quart casserole dish for some of the casserole recipes, but there are lots of recipes that call for 2 and 1-1/2 quart dishes as well. For the skillet recipes, a regular 12-inch pan works well, and a 3-1/2 to 4 quart slow cooker is what's called for in that section. The pictures are GORGEOUS, and the directions are all straight-forward. I especially appreciate the complete nutritional breakdown that follows each recipe, and many of the recipes are, or can be modified to be, fairly low-calorie and (gasp!) healthy.
A real lifesaver, recommended to anyone who likes 'home cooking' without feeling like a home-bound prisoner.

Summary: Excellent cookbook for busy moms
Comment: I agree with the other rave reviews. I have a two-year old and a four-month old and this is the best cookbook I own because so many of the recipes are fast and delicious. I can throw them together the night before once the kids are in bed. I'll also add that the layout of this book is terrific. It's divided into three chapters; casseroles, skillet meals and slow cooker recipes. The best thing is at the beginning of each chapter, the recipes in that chapter are divided up by category like "kid favorites", "tried and true family favorites" and "easy entertaining". This makes it a snap to pick out dishes to make when you're planning your weekly menus without having to flip through every recipe in the section.
