Book Reviews of Quick Simple Food

Book Review: A beautiful book full of delicious food
Summary: 5 Stars

Even though I own a few hundred cookbooks, I find myself in a rut sometimes, where I can't get inspired to cook anything. This book changed that. Thumbing through these beautiful pages makes me want to cook just about everything. Tonight we're having real good turkey burgers; later this week, I'll try the tuna with miso sauce. Thank you, Susie Quick, for providing the inspiration to get me back in the kitchen.

Summary of Quick Simple Food

"Life is too hectic to cook gourmet food every night." "There are too many ingredients in the really great recipes." "Eating healthy is too much work." "If it doesn't take a lot of effort, it won't taste good." These and many other misconceptions are proven wrong in Susie Quick's Quick Simple Food, packed with 150 recipes sizzling with flavor, flair, and style-and without the hassle. These fresh, healthy dishes encompass the entire meal, from satisfying salads and amazingly quick pastas to nourishing stews and delicious desserts.

Quick Simple Food takes the path less traveled by quick-and-easy cookbooks and presents a world tour of sophisticated cuisine, from Latin America, Italy, and Greece to India, China, and Japan-and featuring a delectable array of updated American classics-while maintaining a focus on accessible ingredients and easy techniques.

And although nearly everything takes less than thirty minutes to prepare, this is more than mere daily sustenance-these recipes are for sophisticated diners who happen to be short on time, not just for can-opener cooks who happen to be hungry. The beautiful color photographs and the elegant design prove another myth wrong: quick and easy doesn't have to mean dull and dowdy.
