Guide Review - Fix-It and Enjoy-It Cookbook

As much as I like to cook and eat contemporary, gourmet food, there are many times that I turn to a cookbook for tried and true classic recipes. It might be because my guests include a bunch of fussy kids, or it may be that I know the adults I'm serving like more familiar fare. When those opportunities arise, and they often do, the "Fix-It and Enjoy-It Cookbook" is the type of book to which I turn. With soups, stews, chilis, brunch dishes, main course recipes, salads, sides and drinks, this book covers all entertaining situations. There are lots of choices in each category, and many recipes include variations, as well. You'll find that this cookbook is as useful and as comfortable as your favorite pair of summer sandals.
