Get cooking with Alice & Megan!
Alice and Megan are writing a cookbook. But Alice is not the world's the greatest cook … so could it be a recipe for disaster? Well, not with Megan's help - as well as advice (whether the girls want it or not!) from Megan's mum, little sister Rosie, Miss Leonard, the Home Economics Teacher …
This fun-filled cookbook is packed with brilliant recipes. Why not wake up to French toast and tropical smoothies? Or go to school with raspberry muffins and pasta salad? Or snack on smores and quesadillas? Or impress your friends with home-made burgers followed by ice cream with toffee sauce? All this and more included!
Brilliant Breakfasts . Lucky Lunchboxes . Super Snacks . Marvellous Main Courses . Delicious Desserts . Cakes & Cookies.

a colourful cookbook ... very easy to read
well written and imaginatively illustrated, this will be a hit with young cooks ... the humourous approach to the recipes will ensure that fans of Alice and Megan will embrace healthy cooking with gusto
Judi Curtin's Alice & Megan's Cookbook published by O'Brien Press offers something few cookbooks do in Ireland, a brand from the book world trying to shift genres. I hope it works, it has promise and is a fun concept.
a cookery book with a difference ... a real fun treat for Judi Curtin fans who love to read and cook
a cookery lesson that talks the language of 10 to 15 year old girls
a cookery book just oozing teenage attitude, mixed with a large spoonful of humour
Curtin shows that cooking can be fun, and that healthy does not have to mean boring
likely to appeal to new readers interested in developing some culinary skills ... cheerful and practical
for aspiring chefs aged 9 to 90
The first few pages sensibly cover safety and hygiene, ingredients and cooking tips. The rest of the book is given over to recipes themselves, divided into sections with inviting titles.
From what I remember of the Alice and Megan series, both girls were more enthusiastic than expert in the cookery department and I was therefore intrigued to find out what they might include in ‘their’ cookbook
One of the most exciting cookbooks to have hit the shelves from Ireland last year was Judi Curtin’s Alice and Megan’s Cookbook ... In the great tradition of so many children’s books, Judi Curtin writes vividly about the wonders of food - but this time readers can bring these treats to life ... cheerful and practical tone ... The instructions are clear and easy to follow.
