Don't Panic-dinner's in the Freezer by Bonnie Garcia, Susie Martinez, Vanda Howell (2005, Paperback)

I heard about this book on a radio show and checked it out from the library. EVERYTHING I MADE WAS GREAT! The best part was I had multiple meals in the freezer for other weeks that were just as terrific.

It's in easy to read form. Clear and succinct. Multiple meals are in table form. It's simple to have that extra meal for drop in company, a friend in need or when you just don't feel like cooking.(For me that's alot.) If you have older kids, or a husband that can turn on the oven, it's easy to reheat
You can make a large multiple and have party food or something for the church potluck.

This book has everything. Drinks, appetizers, meals galore, luscious desserts and baked goods. Highly recommended.

I recently purchased "Don't Panic-Dinner's in the Freezer" and found it to be a very user-friendly cookbook with delicious recipes that you make and freeze for later. I have already made 3 recipes that my family loved! The recipes are relatively simple but have gourmet taste. The freezing process is easy and all the details are clearly explained in the book. This is a great book for busy women but also a clever way to get together with several friends and prepare meals for each family.

The recipes included are superb - I've tried a few and my family has liked them all. However, this is not the best book for beginners to OAMC. There is very little detailed "How To" information.

I borrowed this book from the library several times to get recipes for my Once a Month Cooking group and decided that I just needed to buy it instead. I got it for a great price and it is so worth having because of the money it saves me by cooking this way. It is easy to read and understand. Of the freezer compatable cookbooks I have read, this is the one I keep returning to over and over.

I never received this item. After paying for it, I got a message from Paypal that the transaction couldn't go through. I tried contacting the seller, with no reply. Finally, several days later, I got a message from Ebay telling me the auction was removed and not to pay for the item. The seller was also no longer available for contact. At least I wasn't out any money--just time and frustration.

The overall ease of the book is great, the directions are well explained and easy to follow. I am not very impressed with the ingredients called for though, alot of the items are NOT what most of us have on hand in our cupboards everyday. There are several I am going to try but some I will not spend the money for ingredients on.
