    I’ve been following Jenn Segal’s Once Upon a Chef blog for several years now and for almost as long, it has been my go-to site when I’m searching for a new recipe. Not only are the recipes all good, she is wonderfully responsive to any questions. So I was thrilled for her when she announced a cookbook was forthcoming and happy for me when I won a copy on LT.The cookbook is beautiful. Each recipe, and there is a nice variety, includes a photo and some have step-by-step photos, too. There are also tips and comments on the recipes. The recipes themselves are easy to follow, with unfussy ingredients, and every one that I’ve tried, I’ve liked. Some of my favorites that I’ve made, most multiple times, are Spinach and Gruyere Quiche, Black Bean & Corn Salad with Chipotle Honey Vinaigrette, Pasta e Fagioli, Old Fashioned Ginger Spice Cookies (with a black pepper kick!), and the totally irresistible Sweet, Salty, Spicy Pecans. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys cooking and it would make a great gift.

    I received a free copy of this book from the LTER give-away. This book is very beautifully illustrated (some of the recipes even have some step-by-step instructions of the more complicated steps). Some of the recipes seem to be "above my paygrade" as a simple cook, but there are enough beautiful recipes in this lovely, big book to entice me to give them a try.

    This was a LibraryThing.com win for me, and I read it the day it arrived in the mail (today!). And I am sure I'll read it many times over again when looking for something simple, attractive, and healthy to make. I know I'll be trying Joanne's Refrigerator Dill Pickles as I'm always on a quest for the perfect dill. Also am intrigued by the Maryland Crab Cakes and Spanakopita Rolls. The dinner rolls and all of the soups sound amazing, as does the Thai Crunch Salad with Peanut dressing.These are things I usually let someone else make for me, but Segal makes them look so easy. I hope to update this review as I try some of the recipes.

    This is a beautiful book. The pictures are fabulous and between the recipes and the pictures, there are a lot of recipes I'm tempted to try. I like that the ingredients are easily found ones, nothing you have to hunt for on the internet. They seem easy to medium to make. The author also included some great pro tips and also a warning at the beginning of recipes when there is something you need to be careful of -- for example, when you need to keep back some of the pasta water. My only caveat is there is no nutritional information and not much concern for high fat in recipes. For example, some recipes include a cup and a half of heavy cream (in a quiche). Some substitution suggestions or caveats would have been helpful. Overall, this cookbook is a keeper and one I plan to use.

    I was very excited to receive this, I'm always looking for new recipes to try out. There was a good mix, including ones my kids loved. The cookbook was easy to use, good instructions with pictures. Whenever I'm looking for a new cookbook pictures are always included in my list of wants, I almost never buy one without them. I really liked the Pro Tips in each section. I will be following her to look for new books in the future!

    This was the first free book I requested/won from LibraryThing & I was so excited to receive it! The book is beautiful, great pictures & has a great mix of recipes! I love finding tasty recipes for busy weeknights with common ingredients already found in the kitchen.....and the Garlic & Herb Roasted Baby Potato recipe fit this criteria perfectly! The flavor was wonderful & this recipe will definitely become part of the rotation! Can't wait to try many other recipes in this book! Love the Heads Up, Pro Tips, Sourcing Savvy & Make Ahead Options throughout!

    This was truly a wonderful cookbook to own and use throughout the year. It has an array of recipes that were manageable to make each and every day. With the beautiful images and backstory of the author this cookbook will inspire you to reach for this book each day and try one of the many great recipes the author has provided. Its classic and authentic recipes make this cookbook a must addition to your kitchen collection. I have already tried the sam and harry's steak salad with fennel and it was a hit for my guests! The format and setup of the cookbook will bring out the joy of making a wonderful meal for your family and friends.
