What’s for dinner, mom? Is this a question that plagues your house like it does mine? Seems like it happens everyday these days…
That is why I just love it when my friends over at Gooseberry Patch cook up another great cookbook and send it my way. Long time readers will know I have mad love for GP. And, so it comes as no surprise that their latest book, Good for You Everyday Meals has me cooking up a storm these days.
Now, let me be clear, this is not a diet book. And, thank heavens for that!
No, in my opinion Good for You Everyday Meals is a great book for real people who just want to eat good food and feel good about it. I just love that this book is filled with ideas that I can tailor to my family’s tastes and needs.
Truth be told I was surprised at the number of great recipes that would fit into our normal meal rotation without the family really noticing that I am…
Adding a side salad with an ah-mazing homemade dressing like we did with this Homemade Balsamic Vinaigrette Salad Dressing.
My “Fried” Baked Chicken is even in there too!
This is one of my favorite recipes that Mom taught me when I was a young cook. Mom really got that getting the family to eat well was all about finding ways to make good food taste good too.
Psst…

The Fried Baked Chicken looks good. I don’t like frying food anyway, too messy.
Vicki Davis says
I’m thinking those banana nut muffins and vinegar are on my list of wanting to make! They look like something we have to buy and would rather make! Thanks

I really want to try the homemade Balsamic Vinegrette. I’d rather make it than buy it.

The Balsamic Vinaigrette sounds fabulous… when it warms up!

The “Mile High Biscuits” look like a great one to try in the hunt for the perfect biscuit recipe!

I am trying to make more salads with a little variety and the Corn, Tomato & Black Bean Salad looked good. I so love their cookbooks – they are a treasure to read and look through. ~Kathey

I am interested in making the balsamic dressing for salad. It looks very similar to a dressing that was served at a funeral luncheon I attended.
