Reviews

"Even if you never invite guests over spur of the moment, the recipes in this book will lower your stress whenever you're hosting. The book begins with a collection of five minute appetizers. Dinner can mean 10-minute store-bought tortellini tossed with wine, mascarpone, frozen peas, and basil. Or it can mean looking to your pantry and grabbing jars of roasted peppers and olives, along with cans of cannellini beans and cherry tomatoes, and making them into a flavorful chicken dish."--Maggie Hoffman, Epicurious,
