Customer Rating:      Summary: Great idea but not if you're on a tight budget Comment: I love the premise of this book with its weekly menu of linked-recipes. I did two weeks of July and the food (with the exception of the odd recipe) was excellent. But I had to give it up because I couldn't afford it on a weekly food budget of £60 a week (for three adults and a baby). I also shop locally every day rather than doing a weekly supermarket shop so having a vast array of ingredients just proved a bit too back-breaking for me. I'll be back if a budget version is published with more one-pot recipes.
Customer Rating:      Summary: This book rocked my kitchen Comment: I am not a confident cook, but I committed to two consecutive weeks from this book and loved every minute of it. It was such a relief to not have to think up and shop for a new recipe every day. The authors of this book have done all the hard work, leaving you to enjoy the cooking. It fits in really well with working life, especially if the big meal (day 1) is started on a Sunday. My kitchen, freezer, and belly have never been so full or satisfied! Really much more than a cookbook... Excellent! Seasonal, sensible, but delicious food.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Real ugly duckling of a book Comment: Had I have looked at this book in a store beforehand, I would not have bought it. The design is very uninspiring. And I'm not sure what budget they were working on, but to buy the ingredients each week, I would be spending more than I do now on food. Quite a few of the recipes really didn't appeal, such as using leftover white fish in a salad the next day..yuk!!
Also, if you get a weekly veg/meatbox you may find you don't have the ingredients required.
May suite others, but not for me
Customer Rating:      Summary: RECIPES FREE ON THE WEBSITE!! Comment: I received this book yesterday and it has a lot of great sounding recipes. I do agree with an earlier review that a lot of the ingredients are hardly cheap to buy. In fairness however I have'nt cooked anything from the book yet. I was gutted however to learn that there was no need to buy the book as all of the recipes are free on the website accompanying the book.
Customer Rating:      Summary: ABSOLUTE RUBBISH Comment: Unless you have very adventurous children who would enjoy meals such as 'Oatmeal Herrings with Warm Beetroot Salad' or 'Purple Sprouting Broccoli with Chilli and Anchovy Sauce and Pasta' this is not the book you want. I also fail to see how it saves money when the ingrediants for a lot of the meals are not cheap when trying to feed a family - guinea fowl, duck and crab for example. VERY DISAPPOINTING!
