Among others!

 
My rating: 4 Stars
 
My opinion: My first impression of this cookbook was definitely not my last. When I first had downloaded the book, I thought nice cookbook but for entertainment only. When I ended the book I was like "dang...tons and tons of recipes that I could make for family meals!" 

Recipes were laid out for easy instruction. I was also impressed that the majority of the recipes while unusual seemed simple to prepare. Pictures of completed product were included for the majority of the dishes.
