Great-tasting recipes without the need for numerous ingredients.
Truth is in the title, most of the recipes are only five ingredients! Meals are easy to make and delicious.
I’ve made a few of the recipes already. They are easy and don’t require a lot of steps to make a great meal
Meh… some good recipes, others, very so so.
Recipes were clear and those. Tried turned out well
Looks like tasty and easy recipes. I can’t wait to try them!
I found this cookbook inspiring. I have had it a short while and made one of the recipes. I have earmarked quite a few more to make soon. Most cookbooks have pretty pictures and a few items I might try. I am certain some of these will end up on my regular rotation.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Callisto publishing. My unbiased review is voluntary.
What could be better than a 5-ingredient cookbook! In all fairness, the recipes rely primarily on the herbs and seasonings which are not included as “ingredients” on the list. The book stresses quality over quantity for this precise reason. It is organized like a typical cookbook starting with snacks, soups and salads before moving into vegetables, rice, pasta and breads. Then, poultry, meat and seafood are listed with desserts in last place.
What I found helpful was a review of pantry items including spices and dry goods. If you enjoy Mediterranean foods then this booms is for you. Quick and easy recipes are provided so you can enjoy fantastic cuisine everyday.
5 Ingredient Mediterranean Cookbook 101 easy and flavorful recipes for every day by Denise Hazime
Like the idea of this book because it’d be how we already eat and I’m always looking for new recipes.
Starts with a dedication and then introduction about what the diet is and the different favors of the diet.
Concentrates on all aspects of this diet/lifestyle. Has medium size color photographs throughout.
A 7″ x 9″ book that will lay flat when you open it on the table.
Like the section about quality over quantity because it talks about all the spices and other food groups that incorporate this diet and a short paragraph about why each are important.
Short explanation about how to use the book and the labels that are also included for each recipe. Lots of categories to choose from.
Start of a chapter shows a full page color photo, index on the next page along with a brief summary of this section.
Each recipe starts with a title, suitable diet plans: vegan, vege, gluten free, etc
Servings, prep and cook time are included and a brief tip about the recipe.
List of ingredients are listed and there are only 5 of them. There are NO pictures for individual recipes.
Directions are given and it also comes with other tips and how to store.
Nutritional information per serving: calories, protein, total carbs, sugars, fiber, total fat, sat. fat, cholesterol and sodium.
Love that this book has all that information and there are NO pictures.
Found several recipes that have more than 5 ingredients listed but they are usually all the herbs and spices.
I would also substitute a can of tomatoes for fresh ones.
I would also substituent iceberg lettuce for Romaine, just more nutritious according to our nutritionist.
Like how each recipe starts at the top of a new page.
Lots of space around the recipe to write your own notes and there are conversion charts listed at the back of the book.
Index is also included. Acknowledgements and about the author are also included.
I received this review copy from The Callisto Publisher’s Club and this is my honest opinion.
