I have tried recepies from this book and found it easy and simple. it is impossible to mess it up.

This is probably the biggest book on bread machine that you can find in the cooking category. I only wish that there are pictures. I'm a sucker of cookbook with pictures- They encourage me to bake more just by looking at the pictures. If you decide to buy this book, do not buy the previously published bread machine cookbook by Better homes and garden. This book included probably 95% of the recipes included in the previous book

New to bread machine baking, I wanted a BIG book of tested recipes. This is it. There are lots of recipes for the bread machine, both for total machine baking and oven baking. The one reason I cannot give it 5 stars is the way the recipe pages are set up.

The type is in a nice blue and hard to read orange. The type used to list the ingredients is small and every other line is in orange. I find it difficult to read as the orange seems to fade out alongside the deep blue. Maybe I need to update my glasses.

One other item I would like to have seen is an ingredient substitution guide somewhere in the Tips Section.

There are some really good features, however. The book opens out flat for easy reference to the recipe while preparing. The index cross references recipes by ingredients which I found very useful. There are some ideas for how to use the bread in sandwiches and with soups; they look yummy and worth trying.

Overall, I like the book. All the recipes I tried have come out great. I just wish the book was easier to read, but that won't keep me from using it.

This book is HUGE and lives up to it's title! I've probably tried at least 20 recipes for loaves and 3 or 4 recipes for rolls and breadsticks. So far I haven't had a bad loaf! The recipes are easy, fun, interesting, and there are so many to pick from!
