Book Reviews of The Little Black Apron: A Single Girl's Guide to Cooking with Style and Grace

Book Review: Fantastic!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I learned alot from this book. There was way more information on nutrition that I expected, and it inspired me to start eating much healthier. It's helpful to read about the cold, hard numbers of the nutritional facts. The recipes are super easy, too! I have made four or five of them already, and they are very easy to make, easy to alter, and easy to improvise with. This book has many very helpful tips. I highly recommend it for any girl living on her own.

Summary of The Little Black Apron: A Single Girl's Guide to Cooking with Style and Grace

Even the busiest, most kitchen-clueless woman dreams of one day making the perfect egg salad sandwiches for ladies' luncheons and baby showers. But until then, she's stuck in her kitchen for one, where she can't tell a can opener from a whisk, haricots from Gruyere, or carmelized from caramel. And even if she could, cooking herself dinner from scratch is the last thing on her mind when she leaves for work in the morning.

That's why The Little Black Apron is the accessory for women in their 20s and 30s. Whether fresh out of college or on her own after a messy breakup, any woman who's on unfamiliar footing in her kitchen will feel like M.F.K. Fisher in no time. Nutritionist Jodi Citrin, chef Katie Nuanes, and writer Melissa Gibson offer tangible solutions to healthy and simple cooking, along with hilarious commentary on what it's like to be all grown up and single. This book provides the 4-1-1 on essential utensils, pantry staples, and basic cooking techniques for more than 100 delicious and nutritious recipes.

With The Little Black Apron, a woman on the go needn't neglect what's important in her life, whether that's dating, friendships, or work. Armed with the tips and quick prep ideas on every page, she'll have dinner on the table in no time.
