There are lots of cookbooks that are beautiful, or that tempt you out of your culinary comfort zone, or that just plain make you hungry. To me the mark of a great cookboook is utility: will you turn to it day after day to help you put dinner on the table, and will the dinner turn out to be something you actually want to eat? By that measure, Tuesday Nights earns an A+, while also being terrific to look at.
Broken into three primary sections, Fast, Faster, and Fastest, these are meals you can have on the table in 20 - 45 minutes. Other chapters include One Pot, Pizza Night, Supper Salads, you get the idea. Basically, the reader decides which approach he wants to take for dinner, and the book gets you there, with clear instructions and nice photos. I can personally vouch for: Persian Barley-Vegetable Soup, Sopa Seca with Butternut Squash, Soba with Edamame and Watercress, and Columbian Coconut Chicken. Comprehensive and recommended.
