Perfect Recipes for Having People Over: member book reviews

Queezle_Sister from Salt Lake City, UT

This book appears to have reliable recipes, but its unique attribute is that it helps you entertain. Each recipe is accompanied by a side bar that includes headings such as "when should I serve it" (eg buffet parties); "what should I serve it with" (easy menu planning, with the accompanying recipes being in this cookbook); "how far ahead can I prepare it"; "what about leftovers?"; and "how can I vary it".

The index of this book is good, it has some nice photographs (but not every dish is pictured), and the recipes are diverse.

Entertaining is also considered in a broad sense, not just dinner parties, but also outdoor meals and breakfast for company.

I have borrowed this book from the library, but its excellent and I would be happy to have it on my cookbook shelf.
