The Secret Ingredient Cookbook: 125 Family-Friendly Recipes with Surprisingly Tasty Twists

The Secret Ingredient Cookbook: 125 Family-Friendly Recipes with Surprisingly Tasty Twists is a fun book with recipes the whole family will enjoy. With recipes such as the California Breakfast Quesadilla (secret ingredient: Tater Tots), Spaghetti and Turkey Meatballs (secret ingredient: cinnamon), and Crisped and Dipped Chicken Thighs (secret ingredient: Orange Marmalade), you will find recipes that sound familiar but with an added flavor kick. The vivid photos in the book made my mouth water. I also really liked the variety of recipes in the book, which contains the following categories: Breakfast, Snacks, Soups and Salads, Pastas, Entrees, Sides, Desserts, and Drinks.

Some of the recipes were short and some were a bit longer, which is something I always look at. There are times when I want to make something quick and delicious and other times when I want to venture out and make a recipe with many ingredients and steps that will make everyone ooh and ahh. This cookbook would be a great addition to any family chef’s shelf.
