Tuesday giveaway: The One-Armed Cook

Today's giveaway is a product I mentioned back in December, The One-Armed Cook. Here's what I wrote about it then when I first got a copy in the middle of my morning sickness:
For all you new mommies, mommies-to-be, and in-the-throes-of-morning-sickness-mommies, (I guess I would fit all three of those categories!), I just have to elaborate more on the great new cookbook I mentioned above - The One-Armed Cook: A Kitchen Survival Guide for New Parents. In my current state, I lapped this thing up; it was just what I needed.


Two moms who have "been there, done that" tell you how you can do it, too! Some of it was very basic stuff, like how to stock your kitchen and pantry, how to utilize your freezer, and so on, but I need basic stuff right now. My brain is functioning in low gear, especially when it comes to the kitchen, so having the detailed step-by-step help works for me. The added bonus is that it has some great recipes in it, too. Not all of them are ones we would eat, but the majority of them look great. Plus, they don't require lots of work or effort to get onto the table. Many of them can be frozen or made ahead, with very few steps involved.

The best part of all is that, surprisingly, the recipes are all fairly good-for-you, with little unhealthy prepared/packaged/boxed/canned stuff used (Believe it or not, there was not one canned cream soup called for in the entire book that I saw!). As we try to eat fairly healthfully and avoid a lot of processed foods, I was especially thrilled about this.

Though not written from a Christian perspective, this cookbook is one I would highly recommend to any mom looking for help getting dinner on the table while juggling babies or morning sickness or both. And, it would make a great baby shower gift for a mom-to-be.
