With 250 tempting recipes to take you from breakfast all the way through dessert, Everyday Food: Fresh Flavor Fast is the indispensable collection that home cooks yearn for.

A section on enticing vegetarian main dishes as well as a roster of irresistible desserts round out this comprehensive collection. Here’s a taste of what’s inside:   Breakfast: Jam-Filled French Toast  Sandwiches and Pizzas: Eggplant and Mozzarella Melt  Appetizers: Goat Cheese Crostini  Salads: BLT Salad with Buttermilk Dressing  Soups and Stews: Minestrone  Pastas: Spaghetti Puttanesca  Main Courses: Meatballs with Rosemary  Vegetarian: Mushroom and Parmesan Risotto  Side Dishes: Roasted Sweet Potato Fries  Desserts: Gingered Blackberry and Plum Shortcakes    Brimming with great time- and budget-saving tips as well as smart kitchen techniques, Everyday Food: Fresh Flavor Fast helps you use what you have on hand to make everyone’s favorite foods. With an easy-to-read format, a photograph of each and every dish, and plenty of ideas to keep you inspired, this is the cookbook you will turn to day after day for wonderfully simple, delicious meals.
