Notes about this book

    This is one of my most used books. Their "Quick Mix" is like making your own Bisquick, with lots of recipes to make with this one mix. In the past, I have mixed up Taco, Spaghetti and Sloppy Joe Mixes and given them out with felted hot pads as gifts. The mixes are invaluable for camping and road trips when staying where one has a kitchen to use. I prep everything in ziplocks and cooking is so quick and easy.

    Taco seasoning mix (pg 36) is a decent taco seasoning which I will probably use as rarely as if I bought it in a store. This is the sort of recipe that can be very helpful for a working mother or someone with mobility issues but not for me at the present time.

Why bust the budget on pricey take-out during the week, when you can whip up fast, healthy meals at home Make-A-Mix is perfect for working parents, two-career couples, and over-committed retirees.

Make-A-Mix is really two cookbooks in one. The cookbook begins with 67 make-ahead shortcut mixes for everything from all-purpose cake mix to meatball mix. These can be made on a weekend - or whenever there's free time - and used to speed food preparation on busy days.

The mixes are a key ingredient in one or more of the 306 recipes that follow. The kitchen-tested recipes run the gamut from breakfast dishes to after-dinner treats. They include hearty dinner entrees, like enchilada casserole, onion pot roast, and shrimp & vegetable stir-fry; international fare like green chili burritos and quick chow mein; soups and other appetizers, like New England clam chowder, and even freezer treats like fruit slush.

With the Make-A-Mix method, home cooks can control the amount of sugar, salt, and preservatives in a recipe, and save money on store-bought mixes. This cookbook is the updated and expanded version of Make-A-Mix that sold over a million copies.
