Question

despite having developed a reputation as a good cook, i’m really not one. what i am is a really good recipe follower. i put my trust in real chefs whose recipes are posted here on recipe masters. turns out, though, my trust was misplaced. sadly, my weekly supper club dinner that featured a recipe masters recipe for meatball sub casserole turned into a pizza delivery night.

if after reading this review, any of my fellow recipe masters subscribers are still set on trying this casserole recipe, here is my advice: stop after the first step, when the sauce turns into an un - stirrable glob. dont do as i did and continue on, believing things will improve. they wont. following this recipe is a recipe for disaster.

my advice for recipe masters is to ensure that recipes posted here are \tried and true,\ as advertised. we subscribers pay a fee for access to \top - notch, no - fail recipes.\ if we lose faith in your recipes, we might just turn to the free recipe sites all over the internet.

which sentence best summarizes the author’s point of view about the casserole recipe posted on recipe masters?

although the casserole recipe failed, recipe masters is still one of the best sites on the internet for finding good recipes.

the casserole recipe was not up to the expected standards of a paid subscription recipe site like recipe masters.

step 1 of the casserole recipe needs to be revised, or recipe masters subscribers should be refunded their money.

Explanation:

1. Analyze the first option: The author's review focuses on the failed recipe and warns about losing faith in Recipe Masters' recipes, so claiming it's still one of the best sites is inconsistent with the author's tone.
2. Analyze the second option: The author mentions subscribers pay for "top - notch, no - fail recipes" and the casserole recipe was a disaster (turned dinner into pizza delivery, advice to stop at first step). This shows the recipe didn't meet the expected standard of a paid site.
3. Analyze the third option: The author's main point is about the recipe's quality not meeting expectations, not about revising step 1 or refunding money. The author's advice to Recipe Masters is to ensure recipes are "tried and true", not about these specific actions.

Answer:

The casserole recipe was not up to the expected standards of a paid subscription recipe site like Recipe Masters.
