 FAST AND FABULOUS ENTERTAINING MENUS

by Phillis M. Carey

In an era when even discerning cooks are pressed for time, Phillis Carey comes to the rescue with a cookbook that takes the planning out of the entertaining equation.  With 50 full menus including over 250 recipes to choose from you are sure to find just what you want to prepare for your next party, whether that party is dinner tonight for the family, an elaborate buffet or even an elegant feast for the boss. 

Organized in five chapters and featuring cuisines from around the world Carey’s recipes are simple enough for the beginning cook and intriguing enough for those who have spent years in the kitchen.  While reading menu titles like Backyard BBQ Bash, Midnight at the Oasis, You Bring the Wine, California Fiesta and Roman Holiday you’ll find yourself jotting down the guest list for your next get-together.

Some of you may recognize the format of this cookbook. Yes, it was orginially published as The Casual Gourmet.  I have updated the recipes and added several new ones so don't let that stop you from grabbing a new copy!

The cookbook is available now.  Cost--$18.95. You can pick up a copy at The Kitchen Witch in Encinitas, Great News in San Diego, Voila in Del Mar, Sur la Table in Newport Beach or A Store For Cooks in Laguna Niguel.  To order online either contact me using the email link to the right to arrange payment and shipping or you may order direct from https://shopkitchenwitch.com. 

Enjoy Cooking the FAST and FAB way!!
