"I am new to bread making so this is why I wish it was a little more specific to bread machines."
"I have had it for about a month, bought it at the same time as I bought my very first bread-making machine, and so far every recipe I've made has turned out great!"
"Very simple recipes for our bread machine."
"I've tried multiple recipes from this book with tasty results and look forward to trying more of them."
"Using the exact (measured by scale) measurements of ingredients resulted in a dough that was like thick pancake batter, rather than the dough ball I usually have. So, always check your dough while it is mixing/kneeding to make sure you aren't too wet or too dry."
"One thing I don't like about the book is that many of the recipes in the Whole Grain chapter aren't 100% whole grain - a few of them even contain only a small amount of whole grain flour. Despite the few things I don't like about this book, I feel that the information is so helpful that once I've tried a few more recipes and experimented a bit, I'll be able to adjust recipes successfully and maybe create my own."
"Looks to be a great book, hopefully my wife will love it as a Christmas gift."

Find Best Price at Amazon"In terms of the complexity or “weirdness” of ingredients they call for I’d rate them a 3 on a scale of 1 to 10, meaning you’re going to be able to make most of the stuff in here with items you can find at your local grocery store. The weirdest it gets is miso paste (find it on Amazon) and nutritional yeast but that stuff is everywhere nowadays (Bob’s Red Mill sells it in bags or your local co-op will have it in the bulk section). They emphasize getting comfortable with and liberally using a variety of beans, grains and vegetables instead of trying to find ways to replicate meat. They also have a helpful and brief section at the beginning in typical ATK fashion schooling you on the basics of beans, grains, and nut milks. If you’ve been trying to eat vegan but it takes you hours to prepare a meal or the sauce just never turns out quite right you just need to invest in a Cuisinart and a Vitamix. Don’t skimp on that stuff as it will make a WORLD of difference in your ability to cook efficiently and get the right flavors and textures. We’ve made: - Black bean burgers with cumin and pub sauce (actually, we’ve made this twice and the second time we doubled the batch to freeze half of the patties for later). - Red lentil soup. - Fettuccine Alfredo (pictured) - it gets its rich and creamy sauce from miso, cauliflower, cashews and almond milk! This is flavorful and light but filling, the complete opposite of the heavy cream and cheese based alfredo I used to eat. - Coconut ice cream - we did this one as instructed first, then did a second batch and added a quarter cup of unsweetened baking cocoa and it was AMAZING (pictured). I can confidently say I’d eat this the rest of my life and never feel compelled to touch another bowl of “real” ice cream. I had tried a couple of other vegan ice cream recipes from other sources prior to this and I can confidently tell you nothing else I tried came close to the lightness of the texture here."
"if you don't have ATK The Complete Mediterranean Cookbook or The Complete Vegetarian Cookbook, you will be thrilled with this Cookbook! Out of the 16 recipes under Stews and Chilis, 11 are from the Vegetarian Cookbook and 3 are from the Mediterranean Cookbook!!"
"The blueberry muffin recipe produced the most delicious muffins I've tasted, vegan or not."
"So far a few standouts are the chocolate chip cookies, blueberry muffins, chickpea salad, creamless creamy tomato soup, pinto bean beet burger, and I could just drink the ginger miso sauce! Thank you Americas Test Kitchen for dipping your toe in the vegan cookbook pool, this book lives up to your stellar reputation."
"Sure, some of the recipes are also in the vegetarian cookbook. If you DO own the vegetarian book, the addition of new, amazing recipes and information in this book is worth purchasing."
"This was waaaaaaaaay better then i could imagine."
"I find the intro and notations for each recipe quite useful."

"I was impressed with the ease of most of them - and I quickly realized after trying a couple of the recipes that they could be easily tweaked to mimic dishes I have made before - the long way."
"Updating my review below, now that we've been using this cookbook for much longer: We really LOVE this cookbook and regularly use it (about three times per week). We make small adjustments for our taste, to add a bit more of the seasoning/spices or leave out an ingredient we don't like, but as written they are usually good to great. Some of our favorite go-to's include Slow Cooked Mac n' Cheese (p. 210), French Beef Stew (p. 201), Pizza in a Pot (p. 171), Spaghetti Sauce (p. 171), Chipotle Beef Sandwiches (p.39) and Lime Chicken Tacos (p. 135)."

Ina Garten and The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook provide the perfect recipe for hosting parties that are easy and fun for everyone--including the cook. For more than twenty years Ina Garten's, Barefoot Contessa, the acclaimed specialty food store, has been turning out extraordinary dishes for enthusiastic customers in the Hamptons. Finally, the energy and style that make Barefoot Contessa such a special place are shown here, with dozens of recipes and more than 160 breathtaking photographs, in The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook. Her experience at Barefoot Contessa has given her hundreds of ideas for creating wonderful parties in a few hours. Lauren Bacall gets cranky when Barefoot Contessa, an East Hampton specialty food store/institution for more than 20 years, is sold out of Indonesian Ginger Chicken. Aimed at the cook who intends to entertain, The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook draws on Garten's experience as a caterer, as well as her knowledge of what customers really want to eat when they arrive at her shop. Starting with appetizers, Ina Garten isn't afraid to include such basics as hummus and guacamole: she knows from experience that her versions make a profound impact. There are French Onion Soup and Corn Cheddar Chowder, Baked Virginia Ham and Salmon with Fennel, Roasted Carrots and Caramelized Butternut Squash--and then one killer dessert after another.

With good recipes and good vibes , the latest Fix-It and Forget-It cookbook is bound to be a best-seller .

The book may certainly spur interest in buying a slow cooker if you haven't cooked with this method before!”. –Good Cooking. For instance, if you're looking for a beef stew recipe, the book gives you five or six recipe options, all in a row. The Fix-It and Forget-It Cookbook has been my go to resource since I first bought my slow cooker as a newlywed back in 2002… This book really gave me a feel for how recipes come together… If you’re a novice with the slow cooker this is a book that I highly recommend .”. –Frankly Entertaining. “Recipes here are perfect for every season and occasion, and feature more than just the usual soup, stews, and casseroles… After looking through the recipe book, which consists of hundreds of recipes contributed by cooks throughout North America, I realized I really underestimated the practicality of a slow cooker .

Nothing more inconvenient than using a can of green beans as a page weight while trying to hold your cookbook open. If one doesn't turn out how I like there is plenty more to choose from :) I think its very well organized and so happy I finally bought this book. The only tiny issue for me is I wish there were a couple pages at the end of the book for "NOTES" so that I could write down my favorite recipes."

And that’s the beauty of being a waffle iron chef—waffling food other than waffles is not just a novelty but an innovation that leads to a great end product, all while giving the cook the bonus pleasure of doing something cool, fun, and vaguely nerdy (or giving a reluctant eater—your child, say—a great reason to dig in). Waffled Sweet Potato Gnocchi, Pressed Potato and Cheese Pierogi, and Waffled Meatballs all end up with dimples just right for trapping their delicious sauces. Cooking everything in a waffle iron turns out to be fun." "Pair this book with that waffle iron you never use and some lazy mornings or afternoons for some simple fun in the kitchen." -- Gale Gand, pastry chef, author, restaurateur, and TV personality.

It took one try for the waffled felafel to get inscribed in the regular rotation: delicious, crispy, ridiculously easy, and it barely changed the temperature of the kitchen."
"While I'll probably never scramble eggs in my waffle iron, I came away with a number of great recipes (you MUST try the brioche - it's SO easy and a delicious component of several items) and inspiration. For example, Shumski's idea to make a grilled cheese sandwich in the waffle iron is sheer brilliance by itself, but particularly so if you like to layer it with bacon or tomato. Double bonus: If you're using a Belgian waffle maker, your sandwich (if you center it, albeit against Shumski's advice - he suggests placing it as far away from the hinge as possible so as to get better leverage for closing it in, but my waffle iron, the Oster CKSTWFBF21, closes very nicely with the sandwich in the middle) will be cut into four sections, perfect for sharing right out of the waffle iron. and our new waffle iron."
"I already had a standard waffle iron, but after flipping through the cookbook I couldn't wait to use the new belgian waffle iron!"
"Awesome book, each recipe has easy instructions and pictures."
"Love it ... tons of ideas for making not only waffles but other dishes as well."
