Customer Reviews

wonderfully easy and delicious

This cookbook is designed to "help time-pressed cooks fit gracious entertaining and delicious family meals into a crowded schedule." It is organized around the principle that preparing parts of the meal ahead of time gives the hostess time to set the table, enjoy the company, take a bath, or run errands at the last minute. There are more than 175 recipes in this little book, all of which can be preassembled and left to cook or complete at a later time. Many can be frozen and reheated when convenient. There are eight chapters covering appetizers, soups, salads, meats & main dishes to breads, enhancements and desserts. All of the dishes I have cooked, have been wonderfully easy and delicious, a must for the cook who loves to entertain with a minimum of stress.
