About this title

Synopsis

:In this 224-page book Jim Valvano shares his favorite Italian family recipes. He writes that he wanted to share these recipes because they are an important part of his heritage. "When I think of what we ate together, I think of the people and the love we shared. I wanted to keep the legacy of all my relatives for my children. I wanted to share what they meant to me. I wanted to write it all down so that the meals and the joy would not be forgotten." He further writes: "Some of the recipes are strictly sentimental, Some are gourmet. They come from friends all over the United States, from my family and from restaurants. All are good eating. And any average cook could prepare them with the directions I've given." Jim Valvano, aka, "Jimmy V" was a college basketball player, a coach and a broadcaster. He is best known for his outstanding coaching career at North Carolina State University and for a speech he made saying "Laugh, think and cry each day, don't give up, don't ever give up." So, sit back and browse through dozens of Jimmy V's favorite recipes and also learn some things about his background, his growing up years and his years as a basketball player and coach. You're sure to find a few interesting recipes to try.
