The Best of Food: Marion Kane's Favorite Recipes from the Toronto Star

This book is packed with meatless main dishes featuring grains, beans and gussied-up veggies, from risotto to ratatouille to tamale pie.

A chapter devoted to holiday cooking will be a boon for harried hosts-it runs the gamut from latkes (a must at Chanukah) to turkey with its trimmings (including an indispensable roasting chart), to a luscious carrot cake ideal for weddings.In a nutshell, these are recipes for real food that real people will want to make. This is a book that reflects the current trends, without being trendy. These recipes are tried, tested and true-this is truly a cookbook that no kitchen should be without.Marion Kane is the author of 'The Best of Food: Marion Kane's Favorite Recipes from the Toronto Star' with ISBN 9780969038849 and ISBN 0969038844.
