Cooking with Judith (Review)

 

Is WOWlicious Cooking for You?

In Cooking with Judith, author Judith Briles shares over 50 of her recipes that she casually put together—some from the simple opening of the refrigerator and pantry, and asking—What can I do tonight? What can I make for tonight with what’s in here?

A handful here and a few tablespoons there. Usually, the goal was a tasty, easy-peasy concoction of some sort that was not complicated and did not require much work.

For Judith, cooking has always been a way for her to re-root when she returns home from a speaking gig on one of her books. A few hours in the kitchen erased the hassles of travel.

What you have here are many of her friends’ favorites—some everyday comfort meals like Chili Relleno Chowder or Italian Tortellini Soup. Salads are welcome anytime. Favorites include Avocado Corn Salad, Apple or Pear Pecan Salad with Honey Mustard Dressing, and Summer Beet Salad. For dessert, a slice of Kahlua Cake with amazing crème is a gift to your taste buds.

This award-winning 104-page book is divided into appetizers, soups, salads, sides, quiches, pasta, Mexican, seafood, pork, poultry, and desserts. 

Any cookbook with a quiche section is a winner in my book! Quiche is a staple in our home and a family tradition on holidays. Usually, we have a large mid-day meal on holidays—whether at home or with friends and family. That means, in the morning, I will make a quiche to tide us over until the big meal. It fills the whole family up enough that they will not feel the need to snack (hopefully). For years, I would revert to the same old recipe; now I am excited to have a couple of new quiche recipes to try.

Mexican is another family favorite. We love to experiment with different Mexican spices, recipes, and variations of the classics. Judith really hit the mark with her Mexican recipes, combining the classic Mexican flavors with the touch of comfort that we all love. Comfort food at its best!
