I've looked at this on Amazon and wondered if it was worth buying. I have a few cookbooks that I keep in the caravan, including one for the Remoska, but am a bit of a sucker for cookery books (OK, books!). I would be interested to hear how you get on with it. I really need to talk myself out of buying any more stuff to take away and I do have a huge collection of tried-and-tested recipes that I have gathered over the years to use when we are in the  caravan, so I am really half-hoping you are going to report back that this one is total rubbish! On the other hand, if it is totally indespensible, I will just have to get one, won't I!

Hi chrissie7. The book has easy to follow and tested recipes. An ideal book for the first time caravaner. Even has a bit on BBQ's. It is not a rubbish book but I think you could do without it

To save weight I tend to use BBC recipes off the web as they are normally easy to follow and it saves me hauling a pile of cooking books around with me. It is very handy if there is an unusual local produce that you are not sure how to cook but fancy trying it. I did look up squirrel recipes when I was last at Ferry Meadows but that was more of a threat than a desire to eat the little darlings Pigeon and rabbit recipes would probably go down well at Sandringham CC and CCC sites and I can think of a few where a good venison recipe would be useful. I love foraging for food especially in the autumn with the abundant supply of fungi and nuts and therefore a handy source of recipes is always useful to have.
