Editorial Reviews

A collection of recipes from the Web site Goodbite.com, these dishes are meant to be simple and easy options for a weeknight meal. Many of the recipes rely on shortcuts, and the most useful are those that help home cooks utilize quality packaged ingredients, such as pairing store-bought ravioli with a garlic-sage brown butter sauce. In many other dishes, however, the reliance on prepared ingredients takes away from the taste of the dish. A recipe that calls for Greek salad dressing would have fared better with simple olive oil and vinegar. Similarly, a recipe that calls for cooked chicken tenders from the deli case would have tasted much better with another supermarket option: rotisserie chicken. The most successful recipes are the simplest, such as a balsamic chicken or grilled flank steak with chimichurri. It's worth noting that the recipes are family friendly, with kid favorites such as lasagna, tacos, burgers, mac and cheese, and pizza. So while busy cooks could find recipes with fresher flavor elsewhere, these dishes are simple to make. (Sept.) (Publishers Weekly, June 13, 2011)
