The 30-Minute Cooking from Frozen Cookbook: 100 Delicious Recipes That Will Save You Time and Money―No Pre-Thawing Required! by Carole Jones
Family life today just seems to be getting busier and busier, so The 30-Minute Cooking from Frozen Cookbook sounds like the perfect solution for modern, busy lifestyles. With this in mind, I was really excited to review this new cookbook from Carole Jones publishing November 1st, 2020, from Adams Media.
Jones lays out the cookbook nicely, starting with a primer on cooking with frozen ingredients, then moving onto the recipes in easy-to-understand categories such show more as:
• Breakfasts
• Sides
• Chicken Dishes
• Beef and Pork Dishes
• Fish and Seafood Dishes
• Vegetarian Dishes
• Desserts
The introductory section to cooking from frozen is excellent, outlining helpful tips in regard to how frozen ingredients differ from fresh on the stove top or in the oven.
With the prevalence of low carb dietary choices among American consumers today, I was a bit surprised to see the recipe book was fairly full of higher-carb option. However, there are a few lower-carb options, as well, for those on keto, whole 30, paleo, and related meal plans. Some offerings that this reviewer is excited to try include:
• Tropical Yogurt Parfaits
• Sweet Pea and Bacon Salad
• Citrus Basil Cod
• Blackened Lime Mahi-Mahi
• Cheesy Vegetable Soup
The 30-Minute Cooking from Frozen Cookbook is an excellent choice for busy families who don’t mind traditional, high-carb, American dishes, or for those who would love to use it as a stepping-off point for learning how to cook from frozen.
A big thank you to Carole Jones, Adams Media, and NetGalley for providing a complimentary Advanced Reader Copy in exchange for this honest review.
