Review Quotes

I've been so anticipating this book! Seattle, WA

After purchasing 3-4 backpacking recipe books, I didn't think there were enough new recipes for another book. I have been proven wrong. Your recipes are modern, easy to follow, and sound oh-so-tasty. You have created a gourmet recipe book that even I can cook on the trail. So much fun!! Pre-release Reviewer
