Six Ingredients With Six Sisters' Stuff: 100+ Fast and Easy Family Meals
Easy, fast, and great ideas! I liked the ideas behind this cookbook. All of these recipes are made with six ingredients or less. This is a cookbook that should be looked at to get some new ideas and/or one to rethink the foods that you have made in the past or forgot about.
First off, the illustrations in the cookbook are impressive. They just jump right off the page at you as they are bold and take center stage on each recipe as they get the full attention, as you get a close-up view of the dish being showcased.
There are 3 categories, to help you get started, in this cookbook: main dishes, side dishes, and desserts and a helpful index in the back. If you can’t find something in this 206-page cookbook, that’s tempting your taste buds, you must have overlooked some pages.
As I have mentioned before, these are easy recipes and I found a few new ones that I’d like to try and a few that I had forgotten about and/or the Six Sisters Stuff had revamped for me. This cookbook definitely caught my attention (the illustrations helped!) but after reading over the ingredients for some of the recipes, there are some recipes that I would have adjust or skip as they’re not for me. I
would definitely fix the Brown-Sugar Glazed Pork Chops, Enchilada Quinoa, Chicken-Parmesan Pasta Casserole, and Turkey Taco Meatballs. There were so many other recipes that the illustrations looked so good, like the Easy Crab Cakes, Green Beans with Candied Pecans, Italian Roasted Vegetable Medley, and Golden Grahams S’Mores Bars, but I would have to adjust a few things before I could eat them.
Some of the recipes are marked Kid-Approved which means they were approved by the Sisters own children. Also, the ingredients that the Sisters used in the recipes are “normal” ingredients. Like, chicken, canned condensed soup, brown sugar, or cucumbers. They sometimes ask for fresh mint or fresh thyme or an optional item in the recipe but if you are like me, I sometimes substitute what I have in the jar and move on.
It’s a great cookbook if you are looking for something easy or quick. If you’re looking for variety, step-by-step direction, simplicity and ease, this might be your answer.
