Awesome Snacks and Appetizers

Awesome Snacks and Appetizers by: Kari Cornell with photos by Brie Cohen

Read & Reviewed by: Cris



My Review: I gave this book 5 stars, and would recommend it to those that want to involve their children in cooking, or who are just starting out in the world of cooking. This book has good common sense safety tips, measuring conversions, supplies list, notes on special ingredients, and several simple but fun snack food recipes. I felt this book would make a great present for a tween/teen just starting out in the kitchen, the recipes are easy to follow and there are good pictures to go along with each recipe. My 4 year old was excited to be able to help out making the guacamole and apple slice sandwiches, especially that he was able to look in the book and do the prep work of pigs in a blanket with minimal help from me. It is overall a great book for less experienced cooks or ones with kids that want to help out. If you fit in either of those catagories go out and pick it up starting this coming Sunday!  

Synopsis: Ready to turn your kitchen into snack central? You can be the chef with these easy-to-follow recipes, including pigs in a blanket, cheesy fondue, chicken dippers, and apple slice sandwiches. You'll find simple drawings of important steps as well as photographs of the finished dishes. This book also provides key information, such as an equipment list, a technique list, safety tips, notes on special ingredients, and more. 

What are you waiting for? It's time to get cooking!
