Default countif function question

I have a basic knowledge of countif but I am trying to use it to count if a
value is contained in the cell instead of equals the cell value.
Example
I would like to count the number of occurences of the phrase " blue book" in
the range below

blue book
blue book, red shoe, yellow car
blue book, brown box
