Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade Cooking Made Light

Let's start with this..I do not rate books that I have not cooked things out of! That being said, the reipes out of this book that I have actually cooked are as follows.Meditteranean Chili, Pretzel crusted chicken, Adobo beef, Spicy slaw, spanish rice, grilled veggie rice, and Couscous salad. All of them have been very good and all will be made many times in our house.It's a good thing that I did'nt listen to some of the ridiculous reviews on this book. The one that really tipped me off was the lady that did not like the chocolate cake. I mean really..It's a LIGHT cookbook. If you really want a big fat piece of gooey chocolate cake maybe a LIGHT cookbook is not the place to look. Get a life people. I'm sick of people feeling empowered because they sit behind their computers thinking they're really way more important than they ever will be!

In Christmas of 2009, I bought this Sandra Lee cookbook for my mother. She's read it and liked it a lot. My mother will use it to cook up some good recipies in the near future. They're a lot of other cookbooks out there from big names in food like Martha Stewart and Emeril Lagase just to name a few, but check out Sandra Lee's cookbooks like this one. There are a lot of healthy recipies to check out and cook at home too.

This is the last book I needed to have the complete set of Sandra Lee's Semi-Homemade Collection!!! I'm not much for 'light' fare - I usually like things loaded with butter - and heavy cream - and then covered with chocolate - but - let me tell you - for 'healthy' stuff - these recipes look pretty good!!! As usaul - I flipped right to the back to check out the desserts - and I was not disappointed!!! So instead of letting this book just hold it's place as the one I needed to complete the collection - I think I'll actually try a few of these simple recipes!!!

I work full time and need great receipes I can whip up quickly. You can get any receipe on the internet for free but if you use Amazon and purchase a used book like I did, I highly recommend this. I have printed Sandra Lee's receipes off the internet but I lost the paper and with her book, it is always handy. Buy Used

Lots of great recipes to try. I can't wait to get started. I will have to change how I buy groceries as I never use any prepackaged foods. It will take a bit of preplanning on my part but was looking for a change.

I've only recently received this cookbook and have already made several delicious dinners... quickly and easily. All I really had to do was buy some seasonings I don't usually have on hand. And seasonings really can make a difference, especially with Light recipes.

Gave this at gifts for 2 different people this year and they were both very excited since they are fans of Sandra Lee. The book has big, pretty pictures that make you more motivated to try the recipes. After looking through the books I gave as gifts, I want to get myself a copy.

Great cookbook with lots of yummy recipes! The pizza recipes are all awesome.
