Product Description
Four new, exciting titles build upon the vastly popular, collectible Food Made Fast series from Williams-Sonoma (Desserts, Simple Suppers, Small Plates, & Vegetarian). Featuring delicious food that is simply prepared, each book is designed for today's busy but taste-conscious cook. Welcome solutions make it easy to plan ahead and cook healthy, home-cooked meals in as little as 20 to 30 minutes, so your family can enjoy great-tasting dishes every day of the week, and you can enjoy more time with your family. Food Made Fast Simple Suppers provides a welcome respite to weekday meal-time stress and puts to rest the notion that a healthy, home-cooked meal is a difficult undertaking. You'll find recipes that show how the simplest ingredients, when prepared correctly, can create quick, satisfying, and creative meals for any day of the week. Author Melanie Barnard is a renowned food writer and is author or co-author of a variety of cookbooks, including the James Beard Award-winning American Medical Association Family Cookbook and 365 More Ways to Cook Chicken.

a great cookbook. February 8, 2008

Again Williams and Sonoma has produced a cookbook worth displaying on a coffee table. The photographs are artistic and inspiring. Also, as I have come to expect from W&S, the recipes can be trusted most of the time to be delicious and well-flavored. It is helpful to note however that in this book, unlike in Food Made Fast: Weeknight, most of the recipes do take 30+ minutes. This may very well not agree with everyone's definition of "fast". But, the recipes are conveniently divided into three sections to let you know what your time commitment will be: "30 Minutes Start-to-Finish", "15 Minutes Hands-on-Time" (indicating you should only need to spend 15 minutes, usually at the start and end of cooking, actively in the kitchen), and "Make More to Store" (helpful ideas for cooking meat once and reusing the leftovers). Another helpful point is that the timing for the recipes is only accurate if you have the ingredients in the exact form as they are on the ingredients list. (Often, there is a good bit of time spent in the Mis en Place before you can begin to cook-- this time is not included in the 30-minute figure.)
One last note I would give is that there are an awful lot of recipes in this book which use pork. So, if you're not a fan of pork, that may discourage you.
A great cookbook. I love it.

My daughter in law had placed this item in her bridal registry last year, but did not get it. This made a perfect Christmas gift, being very reasonably priced and quick delivery from Amazon.
