Are the recipes complicated, are there alot of ingredients involved?

I have it and the recipes are fairly simple, IMHO, but I've been cooking for over 50 years!
Lost of the recipes are already in our Recipe Section.

I got it at the library and I've been using it for the past couple weeks. I wouldn't buy it, just because the bulk of the recipes have meat and I don't eat or prepare meat, but the recipes I have tried and liked have been very good. I don't know if I have actually made the thirty minute "deadline" just because I have gone back and forth between the recipe and cooking, you know, but I'm sure once I have them under my belt, per se, they would be a lot quicker to make. I cook and bake on a regular basis and they haven't been difficult at all for me. Some of the breakfast recipes are quite simple. I've found the directions to be very clear.

Hope that helps!

I love the quick and easy cookbook (I love all the SB cookbooks). Most of the recipes are very easy and there is a good variety of ingredients. I don't think there is anything too complicated.

I have it and like a lot of the recipes. Some take a lot of ingredients but none of them are difficult.

I don't own the book but have made a few recipes from it. The recipes are very easy. But then again I made my first lasagna when I was 8 so I think I'm a pretty seasoned cook. I, personally, think that there are so many recipes online you don't really need any SB cookbook. I found it very easy to modify recipes I use frequently to coincide with SB. You could try that too. If you want something easy and fast, it's easier to stick with what you know and change it up.
