I just adore Rachel and follow "The Stay at Home Chef" on all social media. I bought four of these cookbooks, one for me, and one for each of my three children. They are always calling me for recipes, and I found that most of Rachel's are just like mine! Many of my recipes were from my mom and grandmom. Love that the recipes all are real home cooked recipes with everyday ingredients that are healthy. This cookbook offers very easy alternatives to buying pre-packaged food that is often filled with unhealthy ingredients. You'll even learn how to quickly and easily make homemade sauces, rather that buying bottled ones.
Every recipe comes with a QR code to look it up on-line or watch a video, with a professional photo, lots of alternatives for those with allergies or food sensitivity, and easy step-by-step directions.
There are hundreds of recipes including appetizers, soups, stews, baked good, desserts, side dishes, main dishes, seafood, etc. I know how easy it is to look up a recipe on-line, but there is nothing like having a physical cookbook to keep and page through when meal planning. Five stars!!!

This is a great, family-friendly cookbook. Every recipe has a picture, accurate timing, and a QR code that leads to a video. If you're eager to master any of these, you have everything you need! I thought that her pork and salad recipes were the highlights. I like that she also include alternate cooking methods where applicable (like her pork roast is done in the oven, but she includes grill and slow cooker adaptations too).
The only thing I didn't love is the name - I don't fully get the 'stay at home chef' concept. And there generally isn't any backstory for the recipes. But this is a large collection of recipes that will satisfy a wide variety of tastes. If getting dinner on the table is one of your chores, this is a great resource.

I absolutely adore Rachel. She is spunky and a fabulous cook! Literally every recipe I have tried by her is amazing. This cookbook is a game changer in the aspect that not only does it list out the recipes and notes like all other cookbooks, but she has QR codes that give you a direct link to videos of her making the recipes. I can absolutely say with great certainty that this is my favorite cookbook, and will 10/10 recommend it to anyone who wants to truly become a natural cook with recipes that will become family favorites!

Lots of easy and fast recipes that you will eat! Some cookbooks have delicious recipes but you won’t cook it because it’s complicated. This is not that kind of book! I am definitely putting this on my to buy list!

Every recipe I’ve tried so far has been delicious and my family asks for the meal again. This book is an instant favorite that I use multiple times per week as a busy mom cooking for six.

So many easy, delicious recipes.
My new favourite thing is grabbing new cookbooks from the library! This one was so good that I will be purchasing my own copy.

I love this cookbook. For one thing, it's got a picture of every dish. For another, it got my picky daughter to love shrimp scampi, what?? The steak bites and gnocchi was another instant family-favorite (although the cut of meat to use is a bit expensive, it is worth it as this dish is so good, and still costs less than getting take-out or going out to eat). Highly recommend for practical dishes that are actually fairly simple to make!
