Not Gourmet, but Pretty Good Anyway,
By
This review is from: A Man, a Can, a Plan: 50 Tasty Meals You Can Nuke in No Time (Board book)
All right, I'll admit it, when I first got this book I wasn't too impressed. It's a board book, not very different than the kind my two-year-old nephew reads. It's full of pictures, again, kind of like what I might find in the board books my nephew reads. Only these are nice color photos of fixings (the ingredients - usually a couple cans of something), plus the finished product. You know, like a can of Bush's BBQ baked beans + a can of Del Monte Mexican-style tomatoes + a can of Del Monte whole kernel corn, then a photo of the finished dish, Fried Bean Tomatoes.So, who would ever use this book? Bachelors certainly, but not me. Wanna bet! I live half the year on a sailboat and we have lot of cans in our storage lockers. We've tried just about every recipe in this book. Some several times. And that's quite an admission from a girl who used to write a monthly column on how to cook gourmet meals while living aboard a boat. Review submitted by Captain Katie Osborne

This review is from: A Man, a Can, a Plan: 50 Tasty Meals You Can Nuke in No Time (Board book)
when i first saw this book, over a year ago, i thought it was hysterical. now, one year later, i bought the book to help me do research. be forewarned the recipes are geared towards men, but anyone can use this cookbook. it's especially good for bachelors, bachelorettes, college students, or people who don't have a lot of groceries in their pantry and don't know what to do. i for one do not keep a lot of fresh veggies around because they simply go to waste before i can use it for dinner. therefore i have canned veggies. oh, it is cheaper to by it on amazon at $11.+ than at the bookstore. the bookstore came out to $17.+ where as amazon just came in at $15.+

A good start to expanding your cooking vocabulary,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Man, a Can, a Plan: 50 Tasty Meals You Can Nuke in No Time (Board book)
As a college student without too much time, resources, or experience cooking, I started getting sick of the same old plates of pasta and hamburger helper meals. A friend of mine lent this to me and although some of the meals I tried are not too good, there are a bunch that really do taste great. Plus, it really helped me start out cooking more 'real' things for myself and it is very simple. It gave me a few ideas of my own and helped me expand into more advanced meal preparations. This book is great for the lazy, inexperienced college student.
