 Creative, Yet Easy Cookbook
I would highly recommend this cookbook for anyone. The recipes are delicious, yet simple to make. For those who are limited on time.....a must-have cookbook.
great recipe book
this is a great recipe book to have when you run out of ideas with everything else you have. there are many different combinations you can do with bisquick. these recipes are good and many people like them.
 Great recipes, good pictures, but wish it had been spiral bound
I read and re-read the reviews of this book before purchasing it, but I liked the sound of some of the recipes and they are good old favorites along with some new twists--the pumpkin pancakes are absolutely wonderful--our new Sunday breakfast mainstay. I wish thought had been given to spiral binding this book--some of the other Bisquick books are constructed that way, and it is SOOOOO much easier to use one of them. Still, this is a book I will use often as I try new recipes and hunt down old favorites. It's fun to look through and see some of the old advertisements that are scattered throughout as well.
Compilation of all other Bisquick books.
If you own any of the other Bisquick books on the market than you have all the recipes in this one. It's called "Ultimate" I guess just because it combines the impossibly easy pie, bisquick I and bisquick II and the dessert one into one big book. It's a great cookbook regardless. But if you already own the others then you don't really need this one. There are few pictures in this cookbook.
The first chapter covers the Bisquick "classics" you know the ones we've eaten since childhood. The easy pizza pie, chicken fingers, peach cobbler, pancakes, milk biscuits, etc.
Chapter 2 covers favorite recipes for today. Examples are cheese garlic biscuits, banana nut bread, easy hamburger pot pie, strawberry shortcake, etc. if you have Bisquick I I think you have all these recipes.
Chapter 8 was the Impossibly Easy Pies all the same recipes as the little cookbook version by the same name.
The one recipe that was not included which for us is a Bisquick staple is the Sausage-Cheese Puffs. It's a biscuit that I have made and taken to many a potluck and everyone leaves asking for the recipe. You can change up the sausage to hot or italian or even chorizo and it's a perfect biscuit for whatever event you want. You can make them big or little and they're good for a breakfast biscuit or a dinner roll.
The recipe is:
1 pound bulk sausage (flavor is your choice).
3 c. bisquick
16 oz. shredded cheddar cheese (or whatever flavor you choose)
3/4 c. water (I use a whole cup but original recipe calls for 3/4c.)
In a skillet, cook and crumble sausage until no longer pink; drain. In a bowl, combine bisquick and cheese; stir in sausage. Add water and mix with a fork until moistened. Drop by tablespoonfuls on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 400F for 12-15 minutes or until puffed and golden brown. Baked puffs may be frozen; reheat for 7-9 minutes and doesn't have to be thawed first.
I freeze a batch to use for breakfast throughout the week. If you make them smaller and use italian sausage, parmesan and add some chopped garlic you could use for a spaghetti dinner. If you make with chorizo and monterey jack cheese it would be mexican. So you can change it up how you feel.
Cookbook says there are hundreds of new recipes in this cookbook but to change a recipe from peach cobbler to cherry does that really qualify as a "new" recipe? So I'm not sure about the new recipes.
This is a great fall back to cookbook and would help the beginner cook learn as well. It's not necessarily healthy as you are using a prepackage biscuit mix. But nonetheless will make meals to remember (if not for your waistline). LOL.
This one is not necessary if you own the other 2-3 cookbooks that are on the market already.
Same recipes with a twist
I already own every other Bisquick cookbook. This did have some new recipes in it, but most of them were the same recipe just a few ingredients have changed. If I didn't already own the other books I probably would have rated this higher. There are only so many things you can make with bisquick!
