At first, the sheer number of recipes in this cookbook will overwhelm you. Then, flipping to the index in the back you will find that you are able to look up dishes based upon their main ingredient (e.g. chicken, zucchini, potatoes).
We use this cookbook far more than any other book in the kitchen. Of all the dishes we have made, I can only recall not liking one.
It's naturally heavy on breakfast and brunch foods, but it has something to satisfy anyone's tastes - desserts, main courses, appetizers, beverages.
The biggest pain with this book is that it is separated by bed and breakfast rather than by kind of dish. This makes it rather time consuming to find a recipe. One has to turn to the index and then go down through the list flipping to various pages to find the "perfect" chicken dish, for example.
Separating the recipes out by type would have saved the recipe searcher a fair amount of time.
Still, it's a wonderful cookbook. I'm glad we have a copy. WARNING: This cookbook contains absolutely no photos of the food, so those who like seeing what the dish will look like will not enjoy this book.
