Book Review: Simply Symon Suppers: Recipes and Menus for Every Week of the Year: A Cookbook by Michael Symon

Simply Symon Suppers: Recipes and Menus for Every Week of the Year: A Cookbook Simply Symon Suppers: Recipes and Menus for Every Week of the Year: A Cookbook by Michael Symon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is Michael Symon's 8th cookbook, and he focuses on the family meal tradition, "Sunday Supper," and seasonal meals.  The book is divided into four seasonal chapter, plus holidays, desserts, and batch cocktails.  Each of the recipes in the seasonal sections is actually an entire meal -- main dish paired with a side and a salad.  Due to his heritage, there's an emphasis on Greek/Mediterranean and Eastern European recipes.  Beautiful glossy photos are included for all of the dishes.  Plus there's a handy chart in the back with all the recipes listed, plus their designation if they are flour-, dairy-, or meat-free.  Lots of recipes that I want to try!!  Highly recommended.
