Comfort Food Fast: Easy and Elegant Food that Soothes the Soul

by Anne Gardon
(Firefly Books, paperback)

OK, so some of us go back to the likes of macaroni and cheese or tuna casserole when we think of the comfort foods of our youths. You won't find those here, but go with the subtitle thought--easy and elegant food that soothes the soul--and you'll turn out a happy winner from the pages of this yummy book.

In truth, who wouldn't draw some "comfort" from the likes of Polenta and Eggplant Parmigiana, or Acorn Potpie and few would fail to be soothed by Chocolate and Raspberry Clafoutis, or an easy version of that old standby, Quick Apple Pie, using readymade phyllo pastry sheets in place of homemade crust.
