Giada DeLaurentiis offers a great, wide variety of relatively easy to prepare recipes in her new cookbook designed to make quality weeknight dinners easier. As a novice chef, I found this book to be completely fun and accessible – not only did I learn to make crepes doing one of several recipes from this book, but never imagined how delicious peanut butter and jam filled crepes would be! From entrees, to sides, and even suggestions for “breakfast for dinner,” the offerings are diverse. Some of the selections embrace her own home philosophy of having “Meatless Mondays”. Whether or not you are a fan of her cooking shows, if you’re looking just for new things to try that aren’t intimidating to all but the expert chefs, this cookbook should fit the bill.
