With over 23,000 copies sold in its original self-published edition, this book gives practical tips for planning, organizing, and shopping for meals, as well as unique ways to freeze and reheat prepared foods. Every recipe includes measurements for cooking alone or as a joint venture with one or two friends. Families, singles, retirees-everyone who needs to eat-will find fast and easy answers to the question, 'What's for dinner?'

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - My First "Freezer" cookbook: LOVE IT!
I have saved SO much money using this book. I used to spend about $400 on groceries a month. Now I spend $200! WOW! Thats big savings. This book teaches you how to look for and buy meats that are on overstock prices and make them into great meals. I save so much time and now I have a variety of things to choose from for dinner. And it only takes about 20 minutes to warm it up and it tast so fresh still! I love it because I'm just starting out and learning to really cook good home style meals. This takes out all the guess work! It's easy to follow and the meals are yummy! There is something for everyone in this book!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great timesaver!
This is a great cookbook to get your family back to the dinner table together. My daughters-in-law and I are cooking together once a month and we haven't made anything in the book that we don't like yet. The cost per meal is fairly low and it is great having fresh, home-made food in a hurry. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to start eating at home again.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great tasting & easy recipes
I had the opportunity to make 4 of the recipes so far in this book and put them in the freezer. Out of the 4 I will definately be making 3 of them again! They were easy to assemble and cooked up great!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good CookBook
this is a bit fancier than what I thought it would be, which makes assembly awkward if you are not used to wrapping things in pastry or phyllo. But there are enough other recipes that I am interested in trying that don't sound so difficult. I was surprised to find a recipe that I already knew in there...so I am guessing that a lot of them have been "collected" from other sources and maybe changed slightly. I noticed a section of dishes that are not freezable, which many reviewers are opposed to the idea of that being in a freezer book, but I think that some recipes are just way too simple to bother with freezing. It may be easier to whip it up from scratch, especially if it is something as simple as corn casserole, and it is likely a dish that is full of pantry staples and items you will likely have on hand. that is when it is valuable to add to a freezer cookbook. Also, I think that making some things fresh with your frozen meal makes it come together better. Not all the components of your meal have to be make-ahead. You will still save time. I like to have options when it comes to marinades and meats, so it didn't bother me the amount of them in this book. Overall I think it is a good cookbook, with some tasty recipes, and an incredibly easy to read format. All recipes are converted to larger portions in one place. The recipes are more up to date than the older OAMC books. Most recipes fit on one page, so if you wanted to put them in individual page protectors it would work well. The binding on my book is not great, and as a brand new book I have already begun to think about having it hole punched and put in a binder. So if there is a hardcover, I'd go that route.
