Each month, millions of readers turn to Family Circle for recipes they can count on to fetch rave reviews at the dinner table. Since “Busy Woman Cooks” is one of the magazine’s most popular features, Family Circle’s editors have now created an indispensable cookbook with a wide range of dishes to make in a hurry–all in an engaging, clever format.
At a glance, readers of Family Circle Quick & Easy Recipes can use icons to choose the right recipe for any given night; the seven choices range from “Five Ingredients or Less” to “One Pot,” “Quick Cook,” and even “No Cook.” The flavors in each selection are just as fresh as the book’s concept. While it offers a hearty helping of old-time favorites, flavorful international choices are included, too, with great ideas for every course: Sesame Shrimp Salad, Chicken Enchiladas, Pork Marsala, Ratatouille and Polenta, and dozens of innovative pasta dishes can all be on the table in a jiffy. Even dessert is a snap, with quick-and-easy techniques for unheard-of weeknight treats such as Chocolate Mocha Cake and Key Lime Pie. Nutrition information is included with every recipe as well.
Designed for hectic nights when both the kids and the stove need attention at the same time, this is the ultimate rescue manual for tasty, tried-and-true meals the whole family will love.
