very good !

This is a very good cookbook not only for amateurs but for profesionals as well.I recomend it to everybody loves pasta and to all who collect cookbooks

This book is fabulous

No-cook doesn't mean raw or cold! These recipes are easy to make, flavorful and delicious. And FAST! This is just the book for a hot summer night's dinner. Or even when you want a quick dinner. There is a wide variety of flavors. When I first got this book I made four recipes in a week. My son loves the tuna (canned!) with lemon zest and juice with capers. I like the broccoli with blue cheese. Asparagus with orange and basil sauce is awesome! Ricotta cheese and roasted red peppers is a real pleaser. I used this book for dinner for two separate dinners with guests, and on both occasions, the guests went out and bought the book. I'm looking forward to making the Vodka-Spiked Tomato Sauce this weekend.

The book that got me back to scrumptious meals

After years of cooking lovely, but-oh-so-hard-to-do, meals I got burnt out. Then for nearly 8 years I just snacked; I didn't want to even make a salad because that was too much bother. This is the cookbook (given to me by a well-meaning friend)that got me back to making delicious meals. They are easy, healthy, no-fuss and absolutely mouth-watering. I've made most of the recipes in the book and though I have my favorites, there aren't any that I didn't like or thought was too difficult. I'm buying a copy for a friend who has a boat and needs easy meals for a family of 4 that can be made in a tiny cabin kitchenette. This is the cookbook for her and I'm sure many others will enjoy it too.

The Best and Easiest to Prepare Pasta Sauces!

My neighbor and friend received this book for Christmas and raved about it, promising to let me borrow it. She did....for two whole days then retrieved it. Seems she uses it several times weekly and could not do without it any longer. I searched a couple of local bookstores for it and also a cooking website to no avail. I'm so happy to have found it that I'm ordering one for myself and my sister. It's GREAT!

A must for any cook

As an owner of many cook books I have found this one the most convienient by far for a quick and satisfying pasta meal. The flavor combinations are new and tasty. Ingredients can be subsitued for low and fat free meals.
