Book Reviews of Prevention's low-fat, low-cost freezer cookbook: Quick dishes for and from the freezer (Quick and Healthy Low-Fat Cooking)
Book Review: Fabulously Frozen
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this book several years ago and I find that it is the cookbook that I take down from the shelf most often. I am busy and don't have a great deal of time to cook but I insist that when I do cook the food must be delicious and convenient. The food satisfies my palate and the fact that I can freeze the meal into ready made future meals satisfies my lifestyle.Book Review: "Real" food recipes--great tips!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a really great book for people looking for freezer recipes--both the kind that you cook and freeze as well as those you want to prepare, package, freeze and then pull out for quick cooking. ALL recipes have nutritional breakdowns for those who have dietary restrictions to follow. The recipes are for REAL food--not the typically frozen stuff. I was thrilled to find a variation of my favorite Chicken Paprika that was freezer-friendly. And Snapper with Orange Sauce...? Butternut Squash Risotto...? There are chapters for soups/stews/chowders, fish & shellfish, breads/muffins/quick breads, desserts/cakes/cookies--even sauces and condiments!
The beginning of the book has an excellent primer on the benefits and basics of freezing; how to do it withOUT a standalone/comm'l freezer; cutting grocery costs; thawing--including thawing quickly and safely; and planning.
Overall, a really good--and versatile--book for making your life easier when it comes to cooking!!
