The Working Stiff Cookbook: Great Food! Easy Recipes!

It's 8 pm and you just got home from work. What's for dinner? Perhaps a delicious bowl of cold cereal awaits. Or maybe you could order Chinese food -- for the third time this week. Who wants to slave over a hot stove after slaving for a wage all day? No matter how late you work or how fast you eat, Bob Sloan has a recipe for you. Quicker than you can change the toner in the fax machine, you can make a Fast and Furious Stir-Fry. If the thought of washing dishes makes your eyes glaze over, whip up a one-pot meal like Paella Rapido. Need lunch for tomorrow? A Lazy Man's Lasagna makes for plenty of leftovers. The Working Stiff Cookbook has colorful tabs for fast flipping, a spiral binding for easy viewing, and laminated pages for no-fuss cleanup. A smart addition to any kitchen, this is the one cookbook that will earn its keep in painless and delicious weekday meals.
