Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book (2006, Loose-leaf)

I Love this cookbook! I purchased Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book (2006) because I had 2 other older copies. I love that they update and add new recipes.

This is the best cookbook I own. Easy to follow recipes with simple ingredients,most have on hand.It is put together neat and organized.
I cannot not say enough about the Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book (2006).
A must have cookbook.

I received one of these cookbooks for my household shower 30 years ago and it was so useful then that I buy them now for family and friends getting married. Not only does it have great recipes, but it tells how to cook different types of meats, explains different cooking terms, etc. I would recommend it to anyone who is just starting out, or just likes to cook.

I purchased the Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book (2006) for a family member for Christmas. I was very impressed with the full size, spiral bound book. It is chock full of photographs, and the recipient was thrilled with all the recipes, measurements, helpful hints the book contains. Definately a great purchase.

One of the best and most used wedding gifts I received (38 years ago) was the Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook. So, I wanted to find this cookbook for my new daughter-in-law. I purchased an updated version of my well-loved cookbook and was thrilled to see so many new, everyday recipes. She just loves it and I am sure it will become the go-to cooking source in her kitchen also. This is a wonderful contribution to any home.

The variety of recipes for this cookbook are numerous. Recipes are easy to follow and the pictures provide assistance in how these foods should look on your dining table. I just received the book and I can hardly wait to try different recipes for members of my family,,,,especially the grandchildren.

This is my favorite cookbook. My pre-1970 one is pretty ragged. Needed to replace it. I just wish they had kept the old recipes without being revised.

As always one of the best cookbooks on the market. A real cookbook for that eat "real" food. You cannot go wrong with this one.

This cook book was listed as "like new" condition and when I received it, there was a cut on the cover and one of the tabs was torn. The price was great but I did not receive the quality I was promised. A bit disappointed and don't plan to use this ebayer again.

Like it; bought it as a gift for my daughter since she liked the one I bought locally but they didn't have another.

Very easy to use without alot of exotic ingredients, it seems they tried to get too easy and many of the recipes are rather bland. Great book for beginners but an experienced cook should look elsewhere.

Better Homes & Gardens Cook Books is a must in every kitchen even in the best cooks kitchen you always need a little help in the kitchen & you can never go wrong with the "Better" cook book I am collecting as many as I can from 1930 through now I hope to pass them down to my granddaughters one day & pass the love of cooking along with them as well.When my son get married I am even gonna get my daughter n law the bride's edition & start her a collection of BHG..

This is one of the standards for all cook books. Well set up. The recipes actually work and taste good. There are new additions to this update from my original edition. All cooks need this book. It's where I go first for answers to questions. Index VERY good. While my JOY of COOKING is great this is the book I use the most.

The binder-style book is nice. You can take out just the recipe you are using. Good pictures. Simple to follow recipes. Very thorough. The best beginners book as well. We're used ours for 30 years.

I've had this cookbook for years. It has always been a "go to" for my young son and I because of the colorful pictures, basic reference materials, and easy access. I also appreciate the icons denoting "Easy" and the generous mix of recipe types.

Recently, my very old copy of this book (already battle worn and stained)was totaled in a remodeling mishap (my husband spilled paint all over it). I knew I had to replace it ASAP. I worried a little about having a new book. Maybe it wouldn't be quite as user-friendly or have all the variety I wanted. But this edition is everything I remember and more. I highly recommend it.

I like many recipe in this book and think it taste great and better than others. But I don't like the fact that better home and garden did not provide every-step-photos and not all menu have the picture. When I don't know how the dish will look like, I did not try to cook the dish that I am not familiar with. Thus even though there is so many recipes in this book, I only use approximately less than 20 recipes.

I belong to a large church in the Northeast, and get invited to MANY weddings
and showers, especially in the Spring. I believe EVERY bride should have a basic Cookbook to start out their new life as a married couple. The Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook 2006 has been a staple shower gift of mine, and I'm
thrilled to have a handy source like EBay, where I can purchase many of these at considerably LESS than the going cost in bookstores. So that'w why I buy
the book.

I bought the cookbook because we have one that we got when we were first married. We've been married forty nine years so it has received a lot of good use. We now have a second home in Florida and we needed one for there. If it was'nt a good cookbook , we would'nt have bought the second one. We are very satisfied with our purchase.

I bought this book because I have an old 1980 edition that is a paperback and I love it. Needless to say the old one is falling apart.
This one is easy to read, pages lay open for better control, and it has down home cooking. You are able to add pages with notes in this version also. It is sturdy for many years of use.

I have trouble finding a cookbook better than this one. I have hundreds in my collection and The Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book is the one I reach for first and most often. It is comprehensive and the pictures are wonderful. It's perfect for a new cook (like my daughter) or an experienced cook like myself. It has helpful hints and uses ingredients that we can easily find in our fridge or pantry or on the shelves. The recipes are tried and true, like for apple pie or pot roast. Those things are a "must" for any cook who lives in an American kitchen. I highly recommend this cookbook for gift giving, or as your primary cookbook that will be used over and over with stains on each page. You won't need anything else.
