This is the first cookbook I've owned that *actually* has quick and easy recipes that feel do-able for weeknights when I don't want to cook。 Everything I've tried so far is really yummy and the book itself is beautiful。 Can't recommend enough！ This is the first cookbook I've owned that *actually* has quick and easy recipes that feel do-able for weeknights when I don't want to cook。 Everything I've tried so far is really yummy and the book itself is beautiful。 Can't recommend enough！ 。。。more
