Budget food for people with no taste - Rated
I was given a version of this book (same author and cover, different title) as a gift and so far have not found anything to recommend itself to me. The recipes are bland and either overly-complicated or so simple that you'd be better off following the instructions on the back of the packet. I thought this kind of book died out in the 70s. Clearly I was wrong! You'd be far better off spending your money on Keith Abel's "Cooking Outside the Box" - one of the best cookbooks I've found.
