I'm always on the lookout for easy dinner ideas, so I was glad to find this available on Netgalley for review. I've heard good things about Giada (though without cable, I've never seen her on tv) so I was curious to see what she would come up with for meals that don't usually merit media attention. I liked the fusion section with its asian twist, and the breakfast for dinner portion seems like it would be good anytime. Most of the recipes are things that anyone could whip up, though there are of course a few that aren't appropriate for a singleton or at those without an extra hand. Most of the time when I check out a cookbook I'm looking for recipes that augment what I could come up with on my own, and this one does the job, with pretty pictures too.
