After contending with a cheap and nasty product printed by Amazon, it was a pleasure to read this. I recommend this book (as does Jamie Oliver, but don’t let that put you off).

I bought this cookbook for my sons 13th birthday(April 2021)
I’m doing a 13 things beginning with the first letter of his name.
He loves books, I’ve lost count how many he’s got. With him becoming a teenager, I wanted to get a book that’ll help him in life, thus cookbook is ideal!
I love the fact it’s got the whole meal selection for throughout the day(breakfast, lunch etc).
Honestly I think this is such a good idea for teenagers!

This is a really good book – when they say teen, really this book is aimed at anyone who has the desire to get into a bit of cooking, but perhaps lacks the skills or confidence to attempt complicated dishes. There are good pictures and the recipes in the book are easy to follow. You might have assumed as a “teen”cookbook it’s more focused on things like upmarket beans on toast, but actually it’s got some pretty impressive dishes in there, such as spiced duck breast pancakes. A few shortcuts are taken, like not making the pancakes from scratch – but that’s welcomed by most people.
In summary – a great book but have no idea why this is a “teen” cookbook.

Bought for my grand-daughter for Xmas. Recipes look good but not totally sure about it as it’s a bit (lot) laddish

It was a gift for my grandson and I had a sneaky peak. Thought the recipes were very clearly illustrated and easy to understand. Ideal for teens and others who don’t claim to be cordon bleu cooks.

My grandson is currently studying food technology at school. This book is ideal as a way of encouraging him to be more confident and able to cook easy meals.

The recipes look good but I think my son will find the pictures hilarious! So dated, takes me back to the 80s! Can’t say they are very inspiring. It does look like I bought if from a charity shop if I’m honest.
