Rating:  - Her best yet!
I have 5 of Rachael's other books and I have to say this one is by far my favorite. Not only are the meals delicious--at least the 1/3 or so of them I've already made--but it's the one all my friends who need to learn how to cook/ are just begining to are getting because in addition to how easy the menus are I just love the concept behind it and how it's organized. Most of the meals really are made with fairly common ingredients avaiable from most markets. And no, you don't really need to keep all of the things she reccomends around all the time (I certainly don't because there must be about 60!!!)... they're just suggestions!!! I also like the way she divides up the meals according to how much effort they take, ie. "Meals for the Exhausted," "Meals for the not TOO tired" and "Bring it on! (But, Be Gentle)" because how many times have I gotten dinner on the table much later than intended just because all that chopping took way longer than it would if I'd had just a bit more sleep the night before?
Rating:  - On hand supplies
I was a bit disappointed as a large part of the recipes are from things that you need to have "on hand" such as capers, canned chick peas, shallots, spanish onions, Italian Tuna in EVOO and anchovy fillets. I think there were over 50 items listed that you needed to have on hand. Some were simple, such as peanut butter, but most were not. There were certainly many items I don't keep on hand, that would send me to the long line at the supermarket, rather than the express line. Which sort of defeats the purpose, doesn't it?
I would have also appreciated the calorie count, the sugar count, dietary items.
Although I do love to watch her on television, I was just hoping for some of her great recipes truly through the express line at the grocery store.
Rating: - A Winner!
I think this may be Rachael Ray's best cookbook yet. It's amazing how she can take everyday ingredients, use simple techniques, and in a short time create extraordinary dishes. I like this book and predict it will get used more than (too) many cookbooks which, honestly, get read more than employed as real-life tools. I hope she follows this one up with a sequel and keeps them coming!
Rating:  - Some pretty unusual recipies here...
I guess when you've written thousands of recipies things have to start getting kind of "wierd."
The recipies might taste good for me, but I'm adventurous.
... my husband would hardly even try anything in this book. It sounds like the flavors would also be too strong and unusual for my child also. Who wants mommy's "Leeky Chicken Couscous?" "Chorizo-Cod potato stew?" ...they'd think I was joking and go order a pizza :-p
Rating: - An awesome 30 min meals cookbook!
Rachael Ray is an amazing chef who makes it a point to create easy, quick recipes for all levels of cooking ability. I am going to be getting married soon, and will be working full-time. This cookbook is handy because it shows how you can purchase everything and plan the week out, and cook using very little ingredients in a short amount of time. I highly recommend ANY book by Rachael Ray. She is my idol!!! All of her recipes always turn out great, and you can adapt them to fit your taste quite easily. Overall, Express Lane Meals is the best RaRay book I have used!! DE-LISH and YUM-O!!
