I enjoyed looking and reading through this cook book. It had a little bit of everything for the taste buds. And it all cooked in one pan. There were pictures of every meal to see what it looks like after made. I tried some of the recipes and it was all good. It was easy to follow the directions.

I received a complimentary copy via Netgalley. This is my honest unbiased opinions.

The first thing I did when I got approved, was to get myself a cast iron pan.

The recipes are easy to follow and end results are tasty.

Unfortunately, being a novice cook, I ended using more than one pan for a few of the recipes. Lol!

Thank you NetGalley and Sasquatch Books for giving me the opportunity to use this book!

This is one of those books that would be great at home, at camp, on vacation, for Father’s Day… you name it. Cast iron skillet meals are great to make and healthy to eat. I loved reading this and can’t wait to stock it in our library.

I thought this was a great cookbook about recipes people can use their cast iron skillet. I also like how the author talks about what the cast iron skillet and how to take care of it. I also written down recipes that I thought would be tasty to make. I can not wait to try them.

When Jackie Freeman says one pot, they truly mean one single cast iron skillet. Yes, you can make any of the recipes in Cast Iron Skillet One-Pan Meals in a single 10 inch pan.

I really enjoyed Jackie Freeman’s writing style. They have a fresh, friendly, and downright funny approach to delivering the facts which made this cook book a joy to read. Cast Iron Skillet One-Pan Meals is also chock full of stunning, and endlessly helpful pictures. There are a nice variety of super simple entrees, as well as more complex and impressive options. The author also includes a good selection of veggie, meat, and fish options.

As I made my way through, I bookmarked so many recipes I literally had no choice but to start cooking! In fact, I made several of the chicken recipes and most of the non-meat selections, and was very happy with them all. The recipes are easy to follow, though I only attempted the easier ones.

Cast Iron Skillet One-Pan Meals is filled with clever chef tips, both general ones as well as specific to Jackie Freeman’s recipes. One that impressed me is in the chicken enchilada recipe, with the option to cut the tortillas into triangles mixed in before baking. (Or make life super easy and simply serve corn chips on the side.) Nice!

I love recipes that has minimal clean up afterwards. CAST IRON ONE PAN MEALS by Jackie Freeman follows that idea deliciously.

Filled with gorgeous pictures of every recipe and easy to follow directions, there’s several recipes I can’t wait to try. It has meat and vegetarian dishes so there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

The cookbook is great for those new to cast iron cooking and those that have used cast iron for years. 5 stars!!

Thanks to NetGalley and Sasquatch Books for allowing me to review this ebook.

This is a great cast iron cookbook! Cast iron can be hard to use, it retains heat and can’t be used for certain dishes. This cookbook delivers delicious sounding recipes along with good pictures. I made a few of the chicken dishes and they were great. 4 stars.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed as in this review are completely my own.

I am new to cast iron cooking pots but have been told they are a very versatile pan; combine that with one pan complete recipes and I am sold.! This book has many interesting and delicious sourcing recipes I can’t wait to increase my cast iron skills trying them out.

Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Jackie Freeman's Cast Iron Skillet One-Pan Meals is a decent cast iron skillet book. I'm still learning how to diversify what I make in my cast iron aside form meat and I greatly appreciated the tofu, pasta, and vegetable recipes. .

Thanks to NetGalley and the Publisher for providing this title for review. All opinions are my own.

While some of the recipes are a bit beyond my current skill level, I enjoyed reading the descriptions and seeing the vibrant pictures. I tried the roast chicken recipe and found it easy to follow. I have previously used my skillet for nachos, and thought the included recipe looked tasty and at an easy level for a home cook. Now, if someone could help me keep a good seasoning on my skillet, I'll be set!

The cast iron skillet is such a versatile piece of cookware for your kitchen! This cookbook has a ton of meals that you can make with only the skillet. If you are new to cast iron cooking, don't worry, because this book has a ton of recipes that are great for a beginner as well! I particularly liked the fact that it is divided by food type, so you can find something even if you are a vegetarian.

This is an excellent cookbook, especially for older people, or families of two. The recipes are approachable, and wholesome.

I have been using this book for a while now and finding the recipes easy to use and really like them. I am always after nice easy recipes especially for a family of 5 adults living in this house.

I was given an advance copy by netgalley and the publishers but the review is entirely my own.

First, I have to say that I might be a tad biased. I am obsessed with cast iron skillets and one of my most prized possessions is an old cast iron skillet that I inherited from my grandmother. I prefer to cook with my cast iron over anything else. This is so much more than just another cookbook. For anyone new to cast iron cooking, this book will give you all the details on how to season, store, and even repair your cast iron cookware. Christmas is coming up and I can't think of a better gift than this cookbook with a skillet! Thank you Netgalley for providing an advance copy

I recently bought a cast iron skillet and this cook was great. It gave some background info on how to care for a season your skillet. I enjoyed this as I have never had one before. All the recipes included photos which I think is so important in a cook book. Lots of healthy meal ideas. If you are a seafood lover there is an entire section on seafood recipes. I can’t want to try the miso chicken it looks and sounds amazing.

Thank you NetGalley for this ARC.

Absolutely enjoyed this cast iron skillet cookbook. Thank you so much NetGalley & publisher for this eARC!

My husband and I have a cast iron but we're such newbs when it comes to using it so I was hoping to find some tasty meals to try and experiment and this definitely delivered! The tips to handling the cast iron (like no metal utensils despite us being told we could from other people!) to the great and creative meals - this was definitely a winner for my family!

The turkey pot pie & turkey chili is probably going to be in our future this holiday season!

Got this ARC from Netgalley, I skimmed through, cooked one recipe, and then ordered a copy for myself.

There is a lot of variety in the book and so many great recipes with different styles and flavours. I really appreciate that it also has information on properly seasonings and caring for cast iron skillets.

This would be an excellent gift for someone looking for interesting but also family friendly recipes, or for anybody just getting started on their cast iron cooking life.
