I've never reviewed a cookbook before, but lately I've been looking for some good-tasting, easy recipes for my house full of men (and one almost-daughter-in-law). I've also been looking for how to keep from piling on pounds prior to aforementioned almost-wedding. Voila! Eating in the Middle, by Andie Mitchell.
First, I really enjoyed sitting down to read the author's personal stories and thoughts. Not having read her book It Was Me All Along, I was curious to find out more about her life. Highly encouraging!
Then, I went though the book marking recipes I not only wanted to try, but felt were reasonable to try in terms of my time and the reality of how tired I often am at the end of a day. I was surprised at how many pages I marked!
Lastly, I made a couple of the recipes last week to see if they 1) were as easy as they looked and 2) tasted as good as they promised. I made the Chicken with Sun Dried Tomatoes and Feta, as well as the Lemon Herb Fish and Crispy Oven Fries. Both dishes turned out fantastic, and my family was happy. Voila!
Happy me, happy family.
