Marie Claire Easy

by Michele Cranston

Great food doesn't have to be complicated. Take seared lime salmon with poppy seeds for example — it couldn't be easier to prepare. Or delicately glazed mandarin cupcakes — they're easy and gorgeous. If you're craving light, simple food that doesn't skimp on fresh, vital flavors, then Marie Claire Easy is for you.

The newest title in the innovative Marie Claire Cooking Series is filled with 185 delicious and easy-to-prepare recipes for starters and sides, light meals, main meals, sweets, drinks and basics.

Created by chef and food writer Michele Cranston, Marie Claire Easy showcases a contemporary approach to cooking and entertaining, focusing on bright, clean flavors and crisp textures.

Learn how to use fresh, flavorful ingredients like lemons, herbs, tropical fruit, noodles, scallops and jasmine tea to create simple and satisfying dishes like rustic leek and squash risotto, impressive fig rolls with pecorino, crispy citrus scallop won tons, and a smooth-as-silk mango lassi. Tantalizing photographs of each dish are beautifully presented alongside each easy-to-follow recipe.

Cooks of all levels will find plenty of inspiration on every page!
