Campbell's 3 Books in 1: 4 Ingredients or Less Cookbook, Casseroles and One-Dish Meals Cookbook, Slow Cooker Recipes Cookbook

I love Campbell Soup so don't miss read the title of this review. I own Campbell M'm! M'm! Homemade in Minutes, Celebrations and Classic Recipes cook books. I got these 3 cook books from a lady when I worked at a supermarket that hated me eating TV Dinners. Being a single guy I couldn't cook or thought it was too hard. However these cook books taught me how to cook good meals simple and easy.Campbell Soups also have the recipes on their site and with the books I learn how to cook. I mainly brought this book for the slow cooker selection. The first two parts basically have all the recipes my other Campbell Soup books have. The only thing new is the slow cooker selection.If you own any other Campbell Soup cookbook you may want to pass on this one as you may already have the recipes. You can also go to their site and search for a recipe and print it out.If you are new then this is a easy and simple book to teach you how to cook. The slow cooker selection has some good ideas.

A lot of these recipes aren't really recipes (especially the 4-ingredient section), but that's not a bad thing. More like ideas, for those of us who are not creative enough to think of these things on our own. Simple stuff like "Put this soup over chicken" or "Mix this soup with mashed potatoes". Kind of a semi-homemade vibe. Anyone looking for anything more is going to be disappointed. I am a newlywed who is just learning to cook and needs quick and easy dinners that I can make after work. And now that Campbell's offers a lot of low-fat and low-sodium varieties, you can substitute ingredients to make the recipes more healthy. The book itself is bigger and more substantial than I thought it would be. I feel like it's definitely a good value for the price. And as a very picky eater, I can see myself liking about 90% of these recipes. I'm going to hide this cookbook so that my husband thinks that I made it all from scratch!

I am not a very good cook, so I like shortcuts in my cooking. When I saw this book and its good ratings, I thought I'd give it a try ... especially the 4 ingredients or less section. So far, I am not overly thrilled with the dishes I have made. They are okay, but nothing great. For example, the Shortcut Stroganoff came out satisfactory, but my family prefers my usual "recipe" (Betty Crocker's Hamburger Helper using lean ground beef). Something that looked really tasty in the book photo and extremely easy to make were the Cheddar & Roasted Garlic Biscuits, the type that are served at a popular seafood restaurant chain. I tried to purchase the key ingredient, Swanson Seasoned Chicken Broth with Roasted Garlic, only to find out that the product had been discontinued. (Although I just purchased the book, it was published in 2007.) I, too, was hoping I would be able to give the book a 4 or 5 star rating, but the recipes fell short in my opinion.

This cookbook has added more to my meal planning week than I thought I highly recommend this cookbook

Tons of reciepies and ideas all packed into one book. It is also easy to use and durable, which makes the book a great bargain for the price. The way things are divided means less time is wasted and much loved recipies or new ones can be bookmarked or found much easierl

Ideal recipes with few ingredients and satisfying flavors.

The only thing I had a problem with this book was that the pages stuck together close to where it would have been bound, but it is a spiral bound, so I like to open it up all the way and lay flat. So when I tried to open the stuck pages they ripped a little, which is minor but a little frustrating. Other than that there are some great recipes that my family really likes.

The recipes are fabulous and on good quality paper but the problem is the plastic spiral binders is separating from the pages and makes the cookbook almost useless. I had to tear out the sheets of the recipes I wanted to keep - I would definitely not recommend this even though it was cheap

I expected this to cater for UK but, found out to my cost, that all the ingredients required were only available in U.S. When I tried to return the book I was informed I had to return it to Miami, Florida. Would cost me more for return postage than the cost of the book itself. Another charity shop donation!!!

very easy to follow recipes - quite a good variety - tasty and inexpensive recipes for a family

This is a great cookbook. The recipes are easy to make. Most of the recipes have common ingredients that you likely already have. I'm happy with the quality of the cookbook. There is lots of variety.

Excellent cookbook. Highly Recommend.

I love the recipes but it arrived with some of the binding missing or wonky.
