Review: Not bad at all, just nothing I was interested in trying

The recipes included do seem to be quick, as advertised, and do not rely completely on mixes and pre-packaged items to get there (some recipes do, many do not). Most include ingredients I wouldn't have around and wouldn't use the leftovers if I bought them just for this recipe. Or things I just don't particularly care for.I will admit that two of my pet peeves are recipes that are so simple they are only useful for the most novice "cooks", or "fast" because they simply combine pre-packaged pre-prepared ingredients, and while *some* of these recipes fall into either category, it's not the vast majority.The directions are clearly written and straightforward, the ingredients clearly listed.Nutritional information included may be fairly complete, or may only show calories and fat, for instance.Overall, three stars because of all the recipes included, I did not find a single one that interested me enough to try, but that isn't because they are inherently "bad" recipes. The chances that any other reader would find at least a few they wanted to try? I would say pretty good. And if so, they should be easy and quick.
