This review is from: Pillsbury: One-Dish Meals Cookbook: More Than 300 Recipes for Casseroles, Skillet Dishes and Slow-Cooker Meals (Hardcover)

I bought this book because I was searching for recipes which I can prepare in advance and leave for my family when I'm away. I have tried a few of the recipes (Bacon Cheeseburger Upside Down Pizza, Baked Ravioli with Meatballs, and a few others)and they have all been good. In other words, my family and I were never displeased with any of the recipes, but they were never excited about any of them either. But we are used to more flavorful dishes since I cook mostly Vietnamese and Mexican dishes. The recipes are really easy to follow though and the pictures are wonderful (most of which looked better than they taste). Overall, the book is great, the recipes are so-so. The dishes in here don't really excite the taste buds, but I'm sure with some experimentation and imagination, anyone can customize them and "kick them up a few notches."

I have not yet used any of the recipes in this book but I have
reviewed all of them. The only problem I have with it is that
some people may have to alter the recipes to get rid of some
of the salt and fat. They look absolutely delicious and a book
like this would be used over and over. Pillsbury
cookbooks are my favorites. Their recipes are excellent!

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes me look forward to cooking., Dec 30 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Pillsbury: One-Dish Meals Cookbook: More Than 300 Recipes for Casseroles, Skillet Dishes and Slow-Cooker Meals (Hardcover)

While finishing my graduate degree and trying to take care of a very hungry husband at the same time, I began to find myself hating the idea of being relegated to a 'domestic housewife' in order to complete my education. Amidst laundry, cleaning, cooking, and the clean-up after, I knew that watching daytime soaps and the gardening channel were just around the corner and that would be it, I would have to shoot myself.

My parents bought me this cookbook for Christmas, and I have been saved! Skillets, casseroles, and slow-cook meals that feed 4 - 8 people, most taking less than a half hour to prepare, with ingredients that are either easy to prepare, or come canned or frozen. Clean-up is a snap, I can grocery shop once every week and a half for meals that will last the entire time between, and the leftovers are enough to feed the hungry husband for lunch the next day.

I need to invest in a 3-quart casserole dish for some of the casserole recipes, but there are lots of recipes that call for 2 and 1-1/2 quart dishes as well. For the skillet recipes, a regular 12-inch pan works well, and a 3-1/2 to 4 quart slow cooker is what's called for in that section. The pictures are GORGEOUS, and the directions are all straight-forward. I especially appreciate the complete nutritional breakdown that follows each recipe, and many of the recipes are, or can be modified to be, fairly low-calorie and (gasp!) healthy.

A real lifesaver, recommended to anyone who likes 'home cooking' without feeling like a home-bound prisoner.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pilsbury One-dish Meals Cookbook
The Pilsbury One-Dish Cookbook is very good as far as cookbooks go. There are CD Cookbooks out there with one Million Recipes on them that are excellent too.
