Book Reviews of The Freezer Cooking Manual from 30 Day Gourmet: A Month of Meals Made Easy

Book Review: Great jumping off point!
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a good jumping off point if you choose to cook once every 30 days or twice a week. Personally, I only cook one entree twice a week but four or five meals worth each entree. I freeze the extra, and after a few weeks of starting this, I have four or five different entrees to choose from whenever I open my freezer!

If it had separate directions on how to freeze items in general (ie. what kind of foods have to be thawed before re-cooking, what kind can be thrown straight into the oven from the freezer, how do you freeze meats differently than pasta, etc), I would have given it five stars. It offers very few rules of thumb, but then gives very specific directions with each specific recipe. For my own recipes that I've been freezing, I've been using the most similar recipe freezing instructions.

My friend and I are having a great time with this. Our husbands are proud of us and our kids aren't hungry anymore. We're not running through the drive-thru or making a meal out of soccer field food. Thank you for inspiring us! It's well worth it and we're hooked.

The best part about 30 Day Gourmet cooking is how much my husband brags about our full freezer to all of our friends. As a working mom, this has been a godsend. My kids love the recipes.
teacher from Iowa >BR>Although we are a small family, I was glad to see that is not a problem because your system isn't just geared to "large" families. This is a true FAMILY cookbook. Thank you for easy to follow instructions and ingredients I can pronounce.
