Gather Get Togethers: Rachael Ray 30-Minute Meals Depicted By Rachael Ray Textbook
am really disappointed in Rachel Ray cookbooks, I have yet to find a recipe that is good, They are all just average, Nothing original nothing inspired. Most of these recipes have been around for ages, Boring. Not really my style, though I did find a handful of recipes to try, Presents a series of simple, easytoprepare dishes for brunches, parties, date dinners, holidays, and picnics, OK, I know a lot of people hate Rachel ray, BUT i have to say this is a very handy book, I like to have people over all the time and this book is not only simple to understand, but also simple to make.
Everything was laid out very well and the food i came up with was yumo to say the least, Haters, keep hating, but i'll be eating while you do that,
: I love Rachel Ray's writing and type of cooking, I didn't particularly care for most of the recipes in this book, Recipes are OK, but nothing special, I am unlikely to make any of the "complete" menus and would more likely pick and choose single dishes, Fun suggestions. A gift from my mom and a fun cookbook, to boot, This is the only Rachael Ray cookbook that I currently own, I don't watch a lot of cooking shows on TV, It took awhile to learn she doesn't say "evooooo" like she spells it, she spells out EVOO,
I have to takeminutemeals with a grain of salt or a dash of EVOO, At my elevationfeet the chicken is still clucking after onlyminutes,
I know I've made a couple of these recipes but I didn't mark which ones, I never plan on having a dinner party where I cook the whole menu but this book is still a lot of fun to read.
I'd like to go to a dinner party where the menu is:
A Get Away for Any Day Baja Blowout: Mussels in Mexican Beer, Heck of a Jicama Salad, and Chorizo and Shrimp Quesadillas with Smoky Guacamole.
Or how about Thanksgiving for Everyday: Herb Smashed Potatoes with Goat Cheese, Turkey and Wild Mushroom Meatloaf Patties with Pan Gravy, and Green Beans with Lemon and Toasted Almonds.
Invite me over! I was surprised that I liked the looks of more recipes than I thought I would, She puts together themed dinners for entertaining, Some are brand new recipes and some are freshened up old standards, I also liked some of the international recipes, I probably won't make entire meals as written, but I did pull a few recipes for future meals, Her recipes are a little out there for my taste, but very creative! Abe loves this cookbook tho' about all wecook regularly out of it is chiliwhich is outstanding, versatile and we have made it completely our own, which I think would make Rachel happy Anyone who knows me knows I LOVE TO ENTERTAIN the girls! I alwaysnjoyd themed parties where everyone makes something wonderful to share.
It really works because all of my friends are great cooks! :
This book inspires everything from holiday gatherings to small themed brunches! Check out pagefor polenta crackers with roasted red pepers!!!!! That's one thing I will e making for the crew real soon!!!!!
Reading cookbooks is sooooooo
much FUN!!!!!! I registered a book at BookCrossing.
com!
sitelink BookCrossing. com/journal/ a lot of recipes that require foods you would not normally have at home, I've actually made a couple of recipes from here that were okay, but she really doesn't take into account the cost of individual ingredients.
Yes, they may be quick, but I don't need to spendon ingredients for a homecooked meal in the middle of the week.
Great book! Although I do prefer to watch her on tv lol Some good receipes with varying number of servings, The largest, though is, and for parties I often have more likeor more, She has a menu for a wraps party and I did those and I thought they were great, It has some unique ideas, Mmmm, this recipe book is filled with delicious easy to make meals too, There is a really good Valentines Day ravioli meal that I made my sweetie one year that was so easy but so scrumptious too! It also has a few meals for grilling out too.
I love it that she chooses a lot of low carb meals too, Did someone call and say they were on their way over Need to make something quick for their visit This is the book for you depending on what you keep in your pantry.
The timing on these recipes is right on, so you don't need to work all day to make a fabulous meal for your visitors.
This book contains a great variety of dishes and menus to choose from, I have not tried all of them, but the recipes are easy to follow and read, The ones I have tried are flavorful,
I mentioned in a previous review that in many cases EVOO extra virgin olive oil should be just olive oil.
A nice feature of many Rachel Ray cookbooks is the cover flaps, The books are paperback and the front and back are extra long and folded in to resemble a dust jacket, These cover extensions can be used like bookmarks, i learned how to makecookies in less thano minutes and all kinds of cookies I'm not sure I've actually cooked anything out of here yet.
I know I registered for it, when I got married and wanted to try a ton of the recipes in it, I love her recipes. Most are simple, or can be rearranged according to one's cupboard, RACHEL RAY IS THE ANTICHRIST!! this is great if you want it spelled out for you menuwise, no nonsense recipes, easy, quick, inexpensive, In this one, Rachael Ray plans out your party menus for you, I like to plan my own menus so the book can be a bit constraining, Definitely try her recipe for Mexican Ice Cream Pie, You will get mad props, Rachael Domenica Ray is an American television personality, businesswoman, celebrity chef, and author, She hosts the syndicated talk/lifestyle program Rachael Ray and two Food Network series, Minute Meals and Rachael Rays Tasty Travels.
