"Easy to prepare, simple to serve, perfect for making ahead - and transportable - one-dish meals are essential to any home cook's repertoire. Now Jeanne Jones's Cook It Light One-Dish Meals gives us more than 100 recipes for complete meals that won't tip any high-fat scales." "Moving beyond casseroles, Cook It Light One-Dish Meals offers recipes for everything from main-dish salads, soups, and stews to skillet dishes, pasta, and savory pies." "Still, who says one-dish meals have to be homely? Jeanne has also tapped the talents of gourmet chefs for some extraordinary cooking. From Jean-Louis Palladin (the Watergate Hotel), there's Black Olive and Clam Soup. From Jerry Peters, executive chef at Enchantment Resort, try Curried Rice and Smoked Chicken Salad. Or sample executive chef Harald Markt's Sauteed Chicken, Olives, and Bell Peppers with Lemon Couscous, a Greek country staple on the cruise ship Seabourn Spirit." "Each recipe is accompanied by a complete nutritional breakdown per serving, including total calories and grams of fat, cholesterol, and sodium."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
