Notes about Recipes in this book

    • FoodSleuth on January 18, 2015

      Makes green salads tastes fresh and inviting for dieters.

  • Chicken en papillote

    • spharo00 on April 04, 2012

      The chicken and vegetables inside the parchment were very moist and flavorful. The tarragon and orange zest really put it over the top. I served this with a salad and boiled red potatoes.

  • Cracked pepper steak

    • MWFhome on May 24, 2014

      A great, tasty way to enjoy steak; can be cooked on a grill.

  • Pan-roasted steak and onions

    • spharo00 on January 27, 2013

      I made the mistake of buying the wrong cut of meat for this recipe and so it was a bit too tough by the time I finished cooking it. The onion mixture was delicious served over the top of the steak. I actually prefer this dish made with chicken. I've done that several times and it is always so good.
