Product Description

When times are tough, as they are now, we need all the comfort we can get. And what better way to provide that sense of security than to make some of the foods we most loved as children?

You'll find all the old stand-by favorites, from Best Ever Chili to Chicken Pot Pie and from the Best Ever Biscuits to Grandma's Apple Pie and Mom's Meatloaf.

Marg Ruttan comes from a (very) long line of professional cooks and is herself an international best selling author. These two facts combine to allow Marg to write an excellent book of comfort food recipes handed down to her through the ages by her family.

I suspect that Marg has been reading my mind. Several of my favourite meals are included in the book, such as Roast Beef & Yorkshire Pudding, Shepherd's Pie, Bread Pudding and Grandma's Apple Pie.

If you've had enough of "fancy" meals and want to enjoy some "ordinary" food, I can highly recommend buying this excellent book. I can't wait for Marg's next book now!

Not Like My Grandma's Cooking 1 Feb 2012
By W. Smith - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I still get cold shivers when I think about my Grandma's cooking. There wasn't a meal so simple she couldn't ruin it. Now, my mother was a different story. Although she passed away 25 years ago I still miss the great meat loaf she used to make and the "Mom's Meatloaf" recipe in this book sounds very similar to hers.

What I like about this cookbook is that the ingredients are all basic and easy to find. I hate recipes that call for some obscure ingredient like ground pansy petals from the northwest region of France.

This is a cookbook I will refer to often and if you like genuine "comfort food", you probably will enjoy it as well. I am on my way now to get ingredients for the "Death By Chocolate Dessert".

Simple and Wholesome Food! 6 Feb 2012
By Crismon66 - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition
The one thing I love the most about this book is that the recipes call for fresh, easy -to -find foods. No "cream of " soups, or packaged onion soup mix. It's REAL food!
The food is simple, homey and wholesome. The directions are easy to follow, and the book is laid out like an actual cookbook, not like some other e-books where each recipe runs into the next.

Comfort food! 6 Feb 2012
By Shala Kerrigan - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
My husband loves comfort food but he's really picky about it. He likes my family recipes very well and dislikes me experimenting.

So testing recipes for his favorite foods is always a bit chancy.

Not with this cookbook. The recipes really do taste like grandmother's cooking. They are well written and tested. I had my doubts about the chicken and dumplings because it didn't call for much liquid. It turned out to be a wonderful, thick and much like a stew with dumplings on top.

The beef stew, following the authors recipe exactly comes out with super tender pieces of beef in a wonderful broth with lots flavor and chunks of vegetables.

The chicken pot pie is perfect, and that recipe will replace my family recipe.

I wouldn't cook from this every night, but the recipes have a lot less fat in them and more vegetables than a lot of comfort food cookbooks have, and you can adjust that further very easily to adapt less salt, less fat and more vegetables. The main course recipes don't use convenience ingredients like cream of mushroom soup. Instead soups are thickened the old fashioned way with corn starch, and the seasoning calls for herbs, spices and salt for flavor.

All the meals we've tried so far have been a success.
