Theo's Family Kitchen: 75 Recipes for Fast, Feel Good Food at Home - Hardcover

by Theo A. Michaels (Author)

75 recipes for feel-good family food from a busy chef, TV personality, and father of three.

This invaluable cookbook from popular chef, columnist, TV personality and father of three Theo Michaels holds the answer to the challenges of feeding a family with easy and fun recipes for every day. In your average week you'll encounter ravenous kids desperate for an almost instant after-school snack, you'll often need to rustle up tempting and filling platefuls of something fast, take more time to prepare something special for a sit-down meal at the weekend, and occasionally cook for extended family and friends. Among these ingenious recipes there's easy comfort food for those days when the world has conspired against you, dishes that the kids can get involved in preparing, tray-bakes and one-pots (especially useful if the dishwasher has broken), fun Friday fake-away ideas that are kinder to your household budget than ordering in, and a few special occasion treats. You'll find ideas here to suit the fussiest of eaters, veggies and carnivores alike, things to please a sweet tooth, and new ways to put a spin on store-cupboard standbys and get the most out of forgotten food lurking in the ice box. Complete with tips and tricks from a busy working chef, this is the ultimate feel-good family cookbook.
