Food Family Style helps you with creating family time
Food Family Style Simple and Tasty Recipes for Everyday Life by Leigh Oliver Vickery Spending time with family is important and what better way to spend this time than in preparing and sharing a meal together. Food Family Style has a wide ranging assortment of recipes. Breakfast to dinner. Dessert to a new favorite drink. Spending time with your children provides a stability that endures throughout their lifetime. Mealtime is the perfect forum to discus and listen. As an extension preparing meals together is an opportunity to learn and share together. Chapter 5 is devoted to what you can talk about at the family table. With an assortment of 50 questions you're sure to have an enlightening dinner as you discover something new about each other. Food Family Style even has a section for kid friendly recipes, so your younger members can create as well. There are recipes that are appropriate for those on a restrictive diet (gluten free or vegetarian). If your schedule is especially busy there are recipes that can be doubled, freeze well, and slow cookers. For this review I required to make one recipe from this cookbook. Not an easy decision, but I used the weather to help narrow down my decision. With the unusual heat streak having taken hold of the Midwest and a family birthday celebration the Frozen Peach Lemonade was my recipe of choice. And was it a hit at the birthday party! The drink was very frothy and refreshing and was so well received I have agreed to make it again for future family celebrations! Available August 2012 at your favorite bookseller from Revell, a division of Baker Publishing Group.

    I found this at my local library and fell in love. The recipes are easy and short not full pages long of ingridients and directions. As a Mom I want to make things for my kids I didn't always have the luxury of growing up but I also know that time is precious meaning every minute away from my kids means minutes stacking up for messy disasters, seriously, elaborate cooking directions are not a mother's friend in the face of spending time with their kids and this book solves that issue.

    I love this cookbook. We spilled sauce all over it & are buying a replacement. The very best pulled pork I've ever had was made with this cookbook's slow cooker pulled pork recipe. The whole book is good & filled with a wide range of easy family friendly recipes. I like the author's introductory remarks for each chapter too :)

    A good cookbook is a valuable addition to any home's kitchen! When I learned about a blog tour for a book called `Food Family Style: Simple & Tasty Recipes for Everyday Life,' [...] I was intrigued! Any cookbook that has the word `Simple' in the title works for me!

    Here is the synopsis of this zesty book:

    365 Simple & Tasty Recipes to Satisfy The Entire Family.

    Here is the biography of the author:

    Leigh Oliver Vickery is creator and founder of Leigh Oliver's, a specialty "fun food" company with numerous products on the market in at least twenty-five states and grocery chains, including Whole Foods Market and Costco. She is the former food editor of the Tyler Morning Telegraph in Tyler, Texas, and now blogs at [...]

    In the Introduction, Leigh tells her readers what they do in her family's home:
    In our home, we try to sit down together to eat at least four nights a week. Yes, it takes work to get everyone's schedule to somehow align and to get food on the table. And yes, many nights it doesn't work out as well as I imagined.
    But we try, and I have seen that the more often we make time to eat together, the better our family relationships become. We have learned how to work together (when the boys are hungry enough, they don't mind helping!), we have learned better table manners, and we have learned so much about our boys' thoughts and ideas we may never have known. (p. 11)

    I prepared the `MOPS Mom: Slow Cooker Pulled Pork' recipe the other day. It was delicious! Here is the introduction to the recipe:

    Heidi Johnson grew up in Texas helping her mom in the kitchen. But it wasn't until she left home that she learned how to really cook on her own. "I learned to cook from my mom, a cookbook called The Joy of Cooking, and the internet," Heidi said. "My husband, Clay, loves that I like to cook."
    Heidi and Clay have a young son, and their second baby is on the way. This favorite recipe is something she created by combining several other recipes into one. "The sauce is my dad's, the spice and mustard rub is from Cook's Illustrated, and the rest came from some slow cooker barbecue recipes on the internet." (p. 166)

    Here are the ingredients from this recipe:

    * 1 (5-7 lb) pork butt
    * ¼ cup prepared yellow mustard
    * 2 tsp. liquid smoke
    * 2 Tbs. ground black pepper
    * 2 Tbs. smoked (or regular) paprika
    * 2 Tbs. sugar
    * 2 tsp. salt
    * 1 tsp. cayenne pepper
    * 1 cup beef broth
    * 2 cups Barbecue Sauce
    (p. 166)

    I plan on trying many more of the recipes in this book! It is always exciting to have more meal options. It is really easy to get into a repetitious meal rut! I look forward to sitting down with my husband, Fred, to decide what to try next!

    This book is available August 2012 at your favorite bookseller from Revell a division of Baker Publishing Group.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great Recipes for Younger Palates that can be Spiced Up for the Adults!
    Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2012
    Format: Paperback
    First of all, I would like to extend a heartfelt "Thank you" to Leigh Oliver Vickery and her publisher for sending me a copy of "Food Family Style" to review for them. I am truly grateful for this generosity. I really appreciate the time, effort and expense it takes to make a reviewer copy available to me.

    When I received my reviewer copy of "Food Family Style" by Leigh Oliver Vickery, I drooled as I skimmed the entire book! Each recipe is marked by symbols that identify them as easy to double, good for freezing, gluten free, healthful, MOPS (Mothers of PreSchoolers) favorites, for the slow cooker, and vegetarian. It's always nice to know when something is easily freezable. The next thing I did was attach sticky notes to the pages containing recipes I wanted to eat right now! Sadly, my next trip to the grocery store was scheduled for Friday, so I got to drool a little more as I added items for my recipes to my shopping list and waited IMPATIENTLY for the weekend.

    But this is so much more than a cookbook. There are tips for getting kids involved in the kitchen, which makes sense considering the MOPS favorites selections. Besides all of the recipes for snacks and beverages, breakfast, pizzas and burgers, soups and salads, main dishes, sides and desserts including more exotic fare featuring lamb, curry and quinoa, this book places a great emphasis on making mealtime a social family event. It contains terrific ideas for starting meaningful family conversations. There are also suggested menus for different occasions, lists of essentials for every kitchen, and a list of substitutions for ingredients.

    My family tried the restaurant-style biscuits, beef stroganoff , magic beef stew and roasted maple butternut squash all in one weekend. Each dish was good overall, just not spicy enough for us. I would definitely consider using these recipes in the future with some modifications to add a bit more zip. Also, I would've really appreciated serving sizes and nutrition information for the recipes, but I suppose it's better for me to do the math and be disciplined about my portion sizes. But those who aren't actively managing their health and/or weight may be tempted to eat more than they should. However, the author specifically addresses proper portion sizes in one chapter later in the book.

    This is a lovely book and so much more than just a recipe book. It's written in a chatty and easy to read style with lots of information. I can't wait to try out some of the recipes with the family and will certainly be taking some of the tips for cooking with children on board to hopefully make it an enjoyable experience for all. Pictures of prepared meals would have been useful though.
