Summary: Absolutely FANTASTIC
Comment: My grocery bills have dropped dramatically, my fussy four year old is eating salmon, and my husband asked for seconds of brussel sprouts!! This cookbook has replaced the rows of dusty cookbooks I never used. It is easy to use, the shopping lists save me hours of time. I recommend this book to every busy mother out there. At first I was leery of some of the recipes but decided to just go with it and see what happened, my family and I have been amazed at the things we love! Dropping a dress size without trying was another added bonus. Plus the recipes don't require a mass of pots and pans which makes clean up much simpler. Thank you so much Leanne Ely.

Summary: No more fretting over what's for dinner!
Comment: I love to cook and I have A LOT of cookbooks. I subscribe to cooking magazines and I surf the web for recipes. I have to say that this book is one of the most practical, well-rounded, and thoughtful cookbooks out there. Leanne's objective is to give you a no-excuses approach to preparing a home-cooked and healthy meal for your family. The recipes are arranged by week according to the seasons (which allows you to take advantage of seasonal foods and preparations...like the grill). Each week begins with a shopping list for that week's meals. The recipes are simple and many have ethnic influences (Asian, Mediterranean, Italian). Meals include meatless, fish, chicken, turkey, and beef...you won't find any pork recipes--but many of the chicken recipes can be prepared with pork if you like. The emphasis is on the main dish, she suggests sides that are simple like steamed carrots, baked potatoes or a tossed salad. Also, dust off that slow cooker, because every week includes a slow cooker/crock-pot recipe---and they are not the canned cream soup kind! In fact, all the recipes are from fresh and healthy ingredients, not processed foods. Very few canned items are called for...just beans, tomatoes, broth, etc. You can learn more about Leanne by visiting menumailer.net (there's a free week's worth of menus there also). And if you can't seem to find the time to make dinner, you may also want to check out flylady.net where Leanne is a contributor. Thank you Leanne for your loving guidance!

Summary: Hate to cook? ----Not anymore!
Comment: I learned about "Saving Dinner" through the wonderful website Flylady.net. I always 'hated' to cook and frankly really wasn't very good at it.
I thought, "what the heck", let me buy the book and see if it can help as much as it promises. Boy does it ever help me!
If you are 'kitchen-challenged' you will appreciate the shopping lists and easily understood recipes. Also, you are not stuck with a shelf or drawer full of fancy gadgets or ingredients. Though, I must admit that I needed to ask a customer to point out exactly which of the items was a garlic press.
Who knew it would be fun to go the store and buy spices and fresh meats and vegetables ? None of the recipes are boring and are carefully arranged by Season so you wont be looking for anything unusal that may not be available.
"Saving Dinner" is written in a very down-to-earth fashion and there are no cryptic abbriviations or a need for a chemistry degree to decipher the recipes.
Reading "Saving Dinner" may make you want to buy more cookbooks but, I can guarantee you wont need to.
