  • Shrimp curry

      loved this because its heavy on the vegetables, and easy to throw together on a weeknight

  • Rose's vinaigrette

    • whitewoods on May 20, 2019

      I needed a substitute for Maggie Beer's Quince, Apple Cider Vinegar & Extra Virgin Olive Oil Vinaigrette. So I just adapted this recipe and used apple cider vinegar instead of red wine vinegar and left out the quince. It's fine.

  • My mujadara

      Mom liked this, but I'm just not crazy about Middle Eastern rice dishes. Two cups of lentils and two cups of rice made for a very large yield, and by cooking the rice with the lentils, some of the rice was definitely under-cooked.

  • Black beans and rice

    • whitewoods on November 15, 2019

      An omnivore like me is always a little skeptical of just beans and rice for a dinner. As much as I love rice, I still think of beans and rice (when there's no meat) as a side dish. So I reluctantly made this one on a weeknight for Mom and me. (She's closer to a vegetarian than I am.) But it was very nice and easy to make and cheap. They list avocado as optional, but for me avocado is never optional. I would never want to leave that out. All three garnishes (raw onions, avocado, and lime juice) really contributed to the yumminess.

  • Eat the Love

    ...as I love ambitious “weekend” project meals, I often need to dishes that I can pull together on a weeknight. This is the sort of everyday cooking that most folks can pull together...

    I agree with the author that passing the knowledge of how to cook to others is important and I think this book is a valuable tool to help accomplish that.
