Summary: Just plain fun!
Comment: Better Than Take-Out is a very creative manual for busy people who like to eat well. Chapters on Extra Easy Appetizers, Simple Soups, Made-in-Minutes Main Dishes, Scrumptious Salads & Sides, and Desserts in a Dash offer up quick, nutritious, zippy entrees with style. Each chapter title page has the index of recipes and page numbers displayed, making for quick and easy finding of favorite recipes. One of the most fun chapters is the first, Cook As You Are. From Red Beans and Rice, to Mediterranean Starter, this chapter is about fast, experimental, creative approaches to good eating. The author suggests,"Come back to this section whenever you don't know what to put on the table or are feeling that mealtime is monotonous." With Better than Take-Out, it is a guarantee they won't be!
A few example of tantalizing recipes are Linguine with Gorgonzola and Broccoli Sauce, Black Bean and Corn Tacorito, New Mexican Posole (a stew of hominy, ground pork, chiles, lime, and spices), and Warm Rice Salad with Shrimp. Dessert ideas include Raspberry Trifle, Fresh Berries and Sweetened Sour Cream, and Chocolate Banana Cream Pie.
Better Than Take-Out is obviously designed to be user-friendly. What makes the book a bonus is it is just plain fun!
