Everyone has been raving about this book. Does it contain recipes that have been printed before in the magazines, or are they totally new recipes? Thanks!

I believe they are all recipes from the magazines.

Yes, it is all recipes from past issues. So far I've discovered it goes back at least 3 years.

Thanks for the feedback. I've looked at it in the bookstore, and it's 25% off right now on this website. I have collected CL for years, so I suppose I have all the recipes, but not all in one place. And with everyone's raves, I can't help but want it!! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/smile.gif

The nice thing about the cookbook is that it has lots of helpful tips in it as well as those recipes. I finally broke down and bought it and I absolutely love it.

Does this cookbook have pictures?
That's the one thing I don't like about the Annual Recipe books. Very few pics.
I have all of the annual recipe books so I would probably be duplicating many recipes. But if the Complete book is full of tips AND it has pictures of recipes, I would probably buy it.

The cookbook has a lot of picturesof recipes, but not pictures of all the recipes. It also has lots of pictures that show you how to do a certain technique or what an unusual ingredient looks like.
It's an awesome cookbook. Definitely my favorite right now just cause it has a little of EVERYTHING in it!!
