Come for Dinner 
Contemporary recipes and menu suggestions for casual but elegant home entertaining

More and more people are returning to the dinner table to rediscover the comforts of home through the pleasure of relaxed entertaining with friends and family. Come for Dinner celebrates home cooking with fabulous recipes and menu ideas that are low stress and appropriate for today's busy lifestyles.

Lamb Shanks with Red Wine and Green Olives, Mini Meat Loaves, Mashed Potatoes with Caramelized Onions, Pistachio Sugar Cookies...these are just a few of the delights that will entice hungry dinner guests to gather around the table. More than 125 recipes, covering everything from soups and appetizers to main courses and desserts, give cooks flexibility to put together their own memorable meals by choosing which dishes to serve together. As a bonus, two large sections of inspiring menu suggestions offer tempting possibilities for everyday dinners, special occasions, and theme ideas. Plan-ahead tips accompany every recipe to make entertaining truly effortless.

Written in a warm, engaging style as inviting as the dishes themselves, this beautifully produced package contains 16 pages of stunning full-color photographs to showcase the beauty of entertaining at home with simplicity and style.
