Editorial Review of Sam the Cooking Guy: Just a Bunch of Recipes
"'I can't cook,' I hear that all the time. And it's not that you can't--it's that you don't. It's that we've been wrecked by cooking shows with their millions of complicated steps and crazy-ass ingredients. Ingredients you can't find, let alone pronounce. That's not how I want to cook. I want to eat well, but I don't want it to take a year. Who's making stuff like 'Truffled Peruvian Mountain Squab with Chilled Framboise Foam' anyway?
"So this book is about food that's big in taste and small in effort. Just great-tasting stuff with no fancy techniques and definitely no over-the-top ingredients, as in everything-comes-from-a-regular-supermarket--cool concept, huh? It's just a bunch of recipes you'll easily be able to make and enjoy."

Customer Reviews of Sam the Cooking Guy: Just a Bunch of Recipes

Review Summary: For the Novice Cook
Review: I have seen Sam the Cooking Guy's television show in the San Diego area, so I immediately became a fan. The book is more of the same useful advice and recipes delivered in a friendly, easy to understand manner. The recipes in general are simple as far as ingredients and process, but still provide flavorful results. I would definitely recommend this book to a novice cook or someone that is intimidated by the kitchen.

Review Summary: This book helped my marriage!!!
Review: I always appreciated what others could do in the kitchen (meaning eating the final product!) but I wasn't big on creating anything. That is until I started watching Sam's show which enticed me to purchase Sam's book. I love it! I've made several recipes and I'm always looking for more. Everyone is great. The kids love it and my wife totally appreciates my new-found interest in cooking. Thanks Sam!

Review Summary: Greatest Cookbook I own
Review: I bought three of these cookbooks after getting some of Sam's recipes off the internet - one for myself and two for gifts. I read a lot of cookbooks and this is one of my favorites, the recipes are excellent and easy. I'd highly recommend it for both beginners as well as great cooks!

Sam cooks like you and me! He is a down to earth, funny, knowledgeable guy that enjoys to cook and makes it easy as pie. His book is filled with the recipes that he cooks on his shows and they are easy to follow and chances are you have the ingredients in your closet!
I LOVE his White Bean Chicken Chili! It's really fast and delicious!
I can't say enough about his book and him! Just get it and enjoy.
Thanks Sam. You're the man!!
