Book Description

Even the busiest, most kitchen-clueless woman dreams of one day making the perfect egg salad sandwiches for ladies luncheons and baby showers. But until then, she's stuck in her kitchen for one, where she can't tell a can opener from a whisk, haricots from Gruyere. And even if she could, cooking herself dinner--actually making it from scratch!--is the last thing on her mind when she leaves for work in the morning. That's why The Little Black Apron is the accessory for women in their 20s and 30s. Whether fresh out of college or on her own after a messy breakup, any woman who's on unfamiliar footing in her kitchen will feel like M.F.K. Fisher in no time.

Chapters provide the 4-1-1 on essential utensils, pantry staples, and basic cooking techniques. Delicious and nutritious recipes for single-serving weeknight meals (because a gal should be out with friends or on a date Friday and Saturday!) cover main courses, salads, side dishes, and even desserts. Armed with the tips and quick prep ideas on every page, any woman can have dinner on the table in no time. AUTHOR: Jodi Citrin, M.S., R.D. (New York City), center, is a nutritionist and the president of Citrition, LLC.
