Product Description

"CJ delivers the mouthwatering scrumptiousness every time. Her dishes are delectable. And I am a connoisseur of all things delicious."
-Jack Black

Tired of forking over hundreds of dollars for entertaining her friends and family, Christiane Jory made a decision. She challenged herself to create more than 100 gourmet recipes for appetizers, side dishes, main courses, and desserts-solely with items she found at 99¢ Only Stores! In this delightful, practical cookbook, Jory serves up delectable dishes, including:

Artichoke Spinach Bake on Homemade Pizza Bread
Green Beans Au Gratin
Chicken Tetrazinni
Pinot Noir Poached Pear Tart

This handy guide is filled with sample menus, a glossary of cooking terms, and space for creating recipes of your very own. Each recipe includes an estimated cost and helpful kitchen hints, such as uses for recycled milk cartons and how to freeze egg whites. Never again will finances be an excuse for not entertaining with pizzazz. With The 99¢ Only Stores Cookbook, feeding a family, playing host to five or six, or even simply cooking for one at home needn't cost a small fortune ever again!

Summary: Waste of money 2008-11-26
Comment: This is a book filled with things you could make if you were to find these items at a .99 cent store. The only thing you need to know is, if there is food available at your dollar stores buy it! Some items are cheaper at a grocery store. The food you find at the dollar stores is safe food.

Summary: 99 cent only stores 2008-10-27
Comment: This book is very interesting, but don't hope to find all ingredients at your local 99 cent store. We needed a few items for one of the recipes and found none available at 3 local 99 cent stores.
The recipes look good, but you might have to go to a regular grocery store to buy the ingredients.

Summary: Read it in Nine Minutes 2008-06-07
Comment: I read all 99 pages in 99 minutes over a period of 99 days..

Fascinating research into how to make the most of a store that stocks so many odd items that you are not always sure how to prepare them. Try the dip recipes!
