What's-For-Dinner Cookbook: A Year-Long Program of Balanced Dinners for Your Family

by Kathleen Botta, Claire Mendonca

Overview

This unique and innovative cookbook is the brainchild of two busy friends who were tired of humdrum meals as well as the daily burden of planning, shopping for, and preparing dinner each night for their families. So they each made a list of their family’s favorite meals then swapped their lists. Soon friends were jealous—they wanted the lists, too. Thus The What’s-for-Dinner Cookbook was born.

In providing more resources than traditional cookbooks, The What’s-for-Dinner Cookbook includes: Weekly and bulk shopping lists, Daily menus complete with recipes, Emphasis on fresh seasonal foods, Seasonal menus at a glance, Time-saving tips for upcoming meals, Preparation times of 30 minutes or less.

Organized by season, the book provides five days of planned, well-balanced dinners for every week of the year. Furthermore, weekly shopping lists are clustered in the back of the book; just follow the list to have on hand what’s needed for the week’s meals.

Martinsburg Journal

For families with too little time on their hands, this is worth examining. Both a cookbook and a course in culinary time management, this guide shows how meals can be planned for a week ­ or even the month ­ without much toil. Here's a bonus: Every recipes takes no more than 30 minutes to make.
