Book Review of New Junior Cook Book (Better Homes & Gardens Test Kitchen)

New Junior Cook Book (Better Homes & Gardens Test Kitchen)

Helpful Score: 3


A picture of every recipe and more than 65 easy treats. The book is divided into BASICS, BREAKFAST, LUNCH, SNACKS, DINNER DESSERT, and CELEBRATE.
This is a great beginner book that lies flat on the table/counter ... you don't need 4 pair of hands to hold the book down (which ultimately might break the binding of the book).
There is a lot of helpful information included regarding cooking basics, planning a menu, setting a table, how to eat healthy, reading food labels, and great pictures of different types of equipment used for cooking.
Some of the recipes that my grand-kids enjoyed making together included Eggceptional Breakfast Bake, Tom Thumb's Tacos, Tangled Twisters, Chicken Dippin' Sticks, and Chocolate Pudding Bottoms Up Cake. They was really proud to be able to make something for the family to eat, and I thought they learned good lessons about shopping, food preparation, and clean-up. This is a great book to share with your kids or grand-kids! Enjoy!
