What users are saying about Must-Have Recipes:
• Love it: It is like having a cookbook on my phone. But easier to search. Very helpful tips, too. —Lindsey mykel
 
LOVE THIS. I’ve never even rated an app but I’m so impressed with this one that I had to! It’s AMAZING. I’ve tried at least 8 cooking apps and this is, by far, the best one. It’s well rounded user friendly and full of great recipes!! It even has general cooking videos that are greatly appreciated by a college student : ) I’m obsessed with this app, great work. —jhking90
 
Fantastic Cookbook App!!!! Love the hard copy BHG cookbook, and this is even better! Organizes your favorites into your own groups, and the shopping list it compiles from each recipe you want to make is invaluable!! Incredibly elegant programming that makes sense, works the way you’d expect it to, and fantastic graphics. An incredible app. And all for FREE!! Download it NOW!!!” —Spinnin’ Wheeler

Must-Have Recipes from Better Homes and Gardens app good for

Great app! Very user friendly with great reipes. Helpful nutritional info.
Have tried numerous recipes on here . Find the shopping list very handy too . Great app .
Great so far! Made the beef and been enchilada casserole. Very tasty and authentic!
I love the recipes but everytime I try to access my favs the app crashes
Awesome App. So easy to personalize it!! Only drawback is that the printing is a bit blurry, in 2x mode. Wish it were razor sharp as it is for the iPhone and the iPod. Recipes are great. Thank you BHG!!!!!
I found the recipes I needed and made my grocery list right in the app in five minutes. Awesome!!!

Some bad moments

This book should be free for Canadians too... We love cooking different things too....
Although this has some good recipes they are missing the normal ones. I would like to know how to add my own recipes to it.
The recipe ideas are fabulous. I do have a concern though. I purchased the additional recipe packs but then had to reset my iPhone. I didnt get those recipe packs back. The app is telling me to rebuy them. I did save everything to iTunes. Please help.
Some of the recipes you have to pay .99 cents for a bundle of recipes
Loved this app at first, but I paid for a few extra recipe chapters and just went to use the app and all the extra recipes I paid for are gone...rip off!
Just updated and now it wont open at all. Please fix this now
