 So Easy and Delicious! |

| Not only are the recipes in this book great-tasting, they are very easy to make. Living in an apartment with a tiny kitchen, I could never make complex recipes with long lists of ingredients, but this book was perfect. It emphasizes fresh flavors and even though the recipes are very straightforward, I found the dishes to be sophisticated and elegant. Even as a beginner cook, I was making grilled lamb chops with rosemary and glazed salmon steaks at least once a week. You realize that you don't need a gourmet kitchen and lots of equipment to make excellent meals and eat well. I especially liked that her recipes sometimes include the main dish and a vegetable side dish, all made in the grill pan at once, making preparation and clean-up even easier. I bought this book a year ago, and it really inspired me to learn to cook and to expand beyond just the grill pan. I would be interested in other cookbooks by this author as well. |

| Good cookbook with easy directions, and by and large, not too many difficult-to-find ingredients. Normally I shy away from special appliances and the books to go with 'em (always believed you should just learn to COOK, period), but I got a grill pan for xmas and then I bought this book. I'd say I now cook at least 50% of my dinners with the pan, and this book covers the topic well -- a good section on basics of using a grill pan. The recipies are not complex, they're more there to teach and reinforce general grill pan techniques. It covers vegetables, meat, poultry, fish, etc, so it pretty much runs the gamut. If you use cookbooks only for step by step verbatim technique and ingredents, this gets the job done. If you use cookbooks to guide you through a technique to add to your kitchen skills, this is excellent. |
Great book for anyone who really cooks

| This is a great cookbook because of it's variety and simplicity. It has a wide range of receipes (appetizers and main dishes; seafood, vegetables, and meats) that are not overwhelmingly complex. Most require readily available ingredients. It's not overly basic, but simple enough to use everyday; unlike some cookbooks that are targeted to someone who can afford to be in the kitchen all day. |
The best christmas present ever!

| The Grill Pan Cookbook was a bonus inside the new ALL-CLAD double burner grill pan my sister gave me for christmas. I am now giving this book for three birthdays this month. Thank you Jamee, my family and friends are starting to think of me as a very good cook. So easy..so healthy! This will change the way you make dinner. And, trust Jamee, read and follow her instructions, it will be perfect everytime! |
I HAVE GIVEN THIS BOOK TO ALL MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS

This is the essential book to have. I have made almost every recipe and they all turned out soooo good. Make sure you get a very good quality grill pan like All-Clad. Even the friends I have who did not cook before now can because of this book. One pan cooking was never better!

| This cookbook has some of the most delicious looking dishes in it! Most seem fairly easy to prepare and I am highly looking forward to having time away from traveling to try several of them. If you are buying a grill pan I would very much recommend this book, if not for educational purposes then just for fun! |
