Kabobs: 52 Easy Recipes

I recently heard the author, Sally Sampson, being interviewed on "Food Schmooze" by Faith Middleton. Her ingredients sounded just delicious and I couldn't wait to purchase the book. In fact, I bought several copies -- it's my current "special little treat" gift for friends, thank you's, etc. The recipes are simple and full of flavor & variety.

Tasty recipes the easy way!

This is a nice little book with some attractive and colourful photographs depicting the recipes.I have tried some of them with very tasty results.Book is recomended.

Great ideas for every night of the week!

This cookbook is only about 100 pages long so at first you'd think it couldn't possible provide descent meals for every night of the week but it does just that! There are 52 recipes but next time you change out the meat option and it's like a completely new dinner. There are tips on grillings, tips on skewers, and then a section on necessary kitchen equipment. All the pictures are fantastic photographs, they show the true feel of the dish. Not every recipe has a picture but there are many. The options are to make the kabobs into salads, or add rice, there are many different international flairs (indian, chinese,etc) so it's like a completely different dish each time; even though the basic premise is a skewer full of meat. There are tofu options as well. There is a recipe for Asian Shrimp that is too die for. It's very good with nothing more than soy, hoisin, sesame oil, rice vinegar, chili paste and a few other ingredients. Certainly things you'd have on hand in your pantry. You could even use a ziploc baggie and make this a freezer meal and then thaw in the fridge overnight and when you get home put it on some skewers and grill. The picture shows adding broccoli and white rice but you could also serve on a bed of greens for a salad if you'd prefer. The next time around use beef tips with the same ingredients and you'd have another dish. Next time around use pork and so on and so forth. All the recipes favor fresh herbs over dried but you can substitute dried if that's what you have. Also, there is minimal fat involved as you are grilling rather than frying all the food. And most grilling meals can be completed in under 10 minutes. We've even used our George Foreman with great results. There is also a recipe for beef with herb butter that is delish. But I could see using swordfish to make this meal and it be just as great. Many of the recipes have a little blurb about where the author first tried the dish or some other little tidbit of information so it's almost like a friend telling you about her experiences. Hope you will give this cookbook a try. It's great as far as I'm concerned. I'll have to check out her 52 weeks of cookies next!
