Not Just Beans
Author - Tawra Kellam
A Book Review By Terry Rigg

Don't ask any questions folks, just buy it. I can guarantee that you will think it is worth two or three times the selling price.

I'm not exactly sure what I expected when I was ask to review a "cookbook". Because I had worked with Tawra previously I was sure that it would be professionally done. But the only cookbooks I see are the ones my wife uses occasionally. I know when she breaks out one of those, to stay out of the kitchen. Mainly because she gets real irritated trying to find that recipe she knows is there.

When my copy of "Not Just Beans" arrived and I opened it, I could tell that this isn't just another cookbook. My wife and I spent about 2 hours going through the recipes and tips. She grabbed a bunch of paper clips and started marking pages. Even before we were through, my daughter and sister-in-law came over and grabbed it. I'm not sure how long they looked at it, but they were here for about another two hours.

I guess the main thing that struck me right off is how well organized it is. I don't believe it is possible to lose a recipe in this book. Next were the tips at the start of each section, relating to that section. Then the conversion tables, leftover recipes, and it goes on, and on, and on.

While most cookbooks are just a collection of recipes, "Not Just Beans" is a complete system of money saving ideas, which just happens to include recipes. And great recipes they are. I've been authorized to take 5 recipes and copy them just for you. Click Here to view these recipes.

I know that most of us are very selective about how we spend our money these days especially on items found on the internet. We are afraid of getting burned. I believe that if you spend the $14.95 (which surprisingly includes shipping and handling) you can retrieve that much and more just by applying a few of the tips you will find in "Not Just Beans". Do yourself a favor and visit Tawra's web site and order "Not Just Beans". While you are there, browse her site and pick up some great money saving ideas right now.
