The MOM 100 Cookbook Review

Do you find yourself cooking the same ol same ol stuff over and over again? Do you find your kids bored with meals? I have the cookbook you may just love, I love it! You don't need to be some fancy cook with fancy ingredients. I found that most of the ingredients that you need for these recipes I have in my kitchen already expect maybe some of things we don't eat on a regular basis.

I love to read recipe books, I know that sounds weird but I find more and more these days are actually books not just a cookbook with recipes. Most give tips on health, ingredients, and getting your kids to try new foods, along with how-to sections.

The MOM 100 Cookbook does all that. It is made to help moms with everyday meals. Meals that you can pronounce the ingredients and find them in the grocery store, no need to go to a specialty store. Katie Workman takes everyday meals that you and I have made and adds some flare, some pizzazz. They are regular ingredients with some spice or cooked just a bit different to get everyone enjoying dinner again.


The book includes 20 Dilemmas with 5 solutions each and there you have 100 new recipes.  The recipes are delicious, easily adaptable (we did it with a couple meals already), no-fuss, includes tips, attitude and wisdom for surviving and staying happy in the kitchen. Katie has included "Fork in the Road" sections that are variations to make the dish simple for the kids as well as spice things up for the adults.

We tried a handful of recipes already and have a whole bunch marked off to make in the near future. This book is definitely one of those books you can use over and over again and not just for one or two recipes. We have tried Cheesy Rice with Broccoli, Big Batch Turkey Meat Sauce, Homemade Chicken Nuggets, Black Beans & Rice (which we adapted - using sausage cut up and also cut the recipe down big time and it still made plenty!) and The Basic Quesadilla's. I am sad to say we haven't tried the sweets yet but believe me I have those book marked off!

All the recipes we have tried so far have been easy to make with ingredients we have had on hand. The kids loved helping out in the kitchen for the ones they could help with. My daughter loved helping with the Chicken Nuggets, she was a fantastic helper and they turned out super! Every one loved them which in turn made her very proud.

This book is great for beginners in the kitchen to the more experienced. It is a great book to have on hand especially when you feel you are falling into the rut of what to have for dinner. A quick glance through The MOM 100 Cookbook and you will be set!
