Details …
There are more than 750 recipes to choose from because we’ve tried to make sure home cooks have a selection to suit every possible occasion — from a dress-down backyard barbecue to the most elegant sit-down dinner. We’ve also considered the need to satisfy a variety of dietary preferences, from strictest vegans to wide-ranging omnivores. And since we know busy families are probably doing lots of things at once, many recipes can be prepared ahead of time or, if so inclined, made in a slow cooker while busy doing something else.
The book is structured to cover a broad range of options. There are 16 chapters built around specific types of dishes, such as dips and spreads, or specific ingredients, such as fish and seafood or cheese. We’ve also categorized by presentation since it’s such an integral component to appetizers, so chapters are organized by categories, such as “Wraps and Rolls” and “Sticks and Picks.”
Our Thoughts …
This book is full of ideas. If you are planning a Thanksgiving event, Christmas dinner, or just a holiday party, this book would be a great place to start. Maybe the Zucchini Hummus or Chive and Navy Bean Dip would be great to add to your next event. I think the Honey Mustard Dip might show up on our menu soon for a weekend football watching meal!;)
Amazon has a great deal on this book as we head into the holiday season!
