Great recipes,
This review is from: Spilling the Beans: Cooking & Baking With Beans & Grains Everyday (Paperback)
So far so good. Have tried 3-4 recipes with my family, and they have been a hit! I am sure the rest will be too, as I am an avid follower of "Dinner with Julie" and her recipes are always, easy, delicious and popular with my 2 teenage sons.

Loving Legumes!,
By Catherine Dobbins (Capitola, CA, US) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Spilling the Beans: Cooking & Baking With Beans & Grains Everyday (Paperback)
I love cookbooks and I'm usually happy if I find two or three recipes in each one that my family loves. I was hoping this would be a good choice as my family loves beans. I've now made several recipes from this book and each one was a hit. My kids actually had an argument over who was going to get to eat the last of the roasted beet salad. The black bean brownies are absolutely yummy. I've also made two of the soups, the blackeyed pea and kale soup and the curried sweet potato soup, and both were delicious. The chickpea masala sandwiches were another big hit. I love that the ingredients are fresh and the steps are simple, yet each recipe has amazing flavor and texture. Best cookbook I've bought in a while!
