Book Review & Giveaway: 5 Ingredient Fix Cookbook (CLOSED)

5 Ingredient Fix: Easy, Elegant, and Irresistible Recipes is a hardcover book filled with great and easy recipes written by Claire Robinson.

To be honest, I haven't really cooked much since our little son Brandon was born. I just didn't have much time. I am so excited to try these simple and mouth-watering recipes from Claire Robinson. She is here to help you get dinner on the table with minimal fuss and just a few ingredients.

From breakfast treats like Brioche French Toast with Strawberries and Cream, to fun starters like Mini Shrimp Cake Poppers, to comforting dinners like Buttermilk Pecan Chicken with Cheesey Penne, all of Claire's recipes have no more than five ingredients. A quick trip to the supermarket and one bag of groceries later, and affordable, better-thank-restaurant-quality meals can be ready in no time.

5 INGREDIENT FIX helps put delicious and sophisticated meals on the table in a snap. With people struggling to simplify, streamline, and budget, the Food Network's Claire Robinson is here to help. Cooking doesn't have to be complicated to be impressive; simplifying the process with fewer ingredients saves time, frustration, and ultimately, money. From breakfast treats like Brioche French Toast with Strawberries and Cream to no-fuss meals like Grown-up Grilled Cheese and Iceberg Wedges with Buttermilk Dressing to a romantic dinner of Grilled Scallops with Saffron Aioli and Green Goddess Rice, all of Robinson's recipes have five or fewer ingredients. A quick trip to the supermarket for one bag of groceries, and a delicious, restaurant-quality meal can be on the table in no time.




BUY IT:  5 Ingredient Fix can be purchased on Amazon.com.

  25. My Father's Daughter with Gwyneth Paltrow would be my pick. It sounds like it would be a bit deeper than your typical cookbook. I find the idea of paying tribute to one's father in this way very touching.
