review 1: Love! Great, easy meals that your whole family will eat. Really. And some good whole-foods takes on comfort foods that aren't that good for us, but we love the taste. No weird ingredients, no recipes that you can't easily substitute things. And if you don't really cook much, there are great lists in the front of what to keep in your pantry, useful kitchen tools, etc. I love to cook and am using this all the time, and will also be giving to a friend with a new baby that I know is new to the kitchen. Good for all skill levels, and includes suggestions for how to include your kids in the prep and cooking process.
review 2: I'm someone who can cook but doesn't like to. I'm a mother of a toddler. While Weelicious presents many fresh recipes that promise todd
... moreler appeal, the recipes are time consuming while promising to be quick. There are no cook times listed for the recipes, so you don't know what you're getting into when meal planning for the week. There are also those insidious ingredients that are pre-cooked. Example: "cooked wild rice" which takes up to an hour before it can be added to the recipe. In other words, add an hour to cook time, making it a no-go for a weeknight around here.Recipes also include instructions that require you to stir or whip constantly for up to 10 minutes (does she tie her toddler to a chair?) and fiddly assembly instructions (I'm looking at you, lasagna rolls, chicken taquitos).This may be a fun cookbook when looking for meals the whole family will enjoy, but it is certainly not a utilitarian one. less

This is a great cookbook if you have kids. The meals are simple but adults will like them to.
