Archives for November 2012

It’s a fact: carpools, soccer practice, work deadlines, and homework have all cut into the time you have to plan and prepare dinner. Whether you’re a beginner in the kitchen or a seasoned cook, you need practical and delicious dinnertime solutions for your family, and Southern Living’s Complete Quick & Easy Cookbook (October 9, 2012; Oxmoor House; $24,95/Paperback) has those solutions.

One of the cookbook’s most exciting features is the “make ahead” icon. This book will tell you what can be partially or totally made ahead and how much time is needed to prepare each recipe. There is even a special notation when a recipe can be made in ten, twenty, or 30 minutes or less. In addition to these features, the book includes more than 250 taste-tempting photographs.

This cookbook is just perfect for busy moms! I like this book because there are so many recipes that can be made so fast & easily! Some only take 10-15 minutes from beginning to end! Delicious recipes such as Garlic Fried Chicken breasts and Easy Enchilada Casserole. One of my favorite sections in the book is “Healthy ‘n’ quick” with recipes such as Southwestern Tabbouleh Salad & Roasted Garlic-Potato Soup. There are also delicious and easy Soup recipes such as Caramelized French Onion Soup and Homestyle Potato Soup. This is really a Mom-Must-Have for this Fall!
