Recipe News: Book offers tried-and-true family recipes

"When I first flipped through “Favorite Family Meals” (Atria Books, $22.95, hardcover), I thought author Annabel Karmel’s three children must be much healthier and more adventuresome eaters that my children ever were. I certainly don’t remember being able to get mine to eat bean sprouts, eggplant or zucchini.

But, after further perusal, I realized that Karmel means for the book’s 150 recipes to appeal to the whole family. She also wants to offer fun and easy recipes that families can prepare without spending hours in the kitchen.

In the 173-page book’s introduction, Karmel writes that she considers “Favorite Family Meals” a book of “everyday family eating.” It contains, she says, her “favorite tried-and-true recipes for all occasions, from healthy breakfasts to lunch boxes, family suppers, recipes for entertaining and even fun foods for children to cook themselves.” And, she says, the book’s recipes have been tested by a panel of children to make sure they have kid-appeal."
