This is a great example of the kinds of recipes I loathe. I'm not into this "can of" and "package of" stuff. It took conversing with a friend in Slovakia to learn those recipes are not accessible. Even if these recipes are US-based (or so it seems), the conversions at the beginning of the book are pointless since most of the recipes require you to buy a "package of" something. It's not a 5-ingredient recipe book just because you're skipping several steps by using something that's premade. That kind of stuff...it's a cheat, misleading and ridiculous. I got into this category of recipe books (fewer ingredients) because cooking isn't my BFF right now (atypical anorexia recovery and all), and I got sick of the recipes on food blogs that use premade ingredients instead of telling me how to make it myself. I have yeast and mold allergies. The bulk of this book is utterly useless to me.
