Overview

Second in the Monday-to-Friday series, here's a pasta book with a difference. For two-worker families, single parents, and other busy people, Ms. Urvater marries the innovative Monday-to-Friday pantry-based approach with everyone's favorite food, pasta. The result is a guide to making over 175 delicious pasta dishes in roughly the time it takes to boil a pot of water. The range of recipes includes soup (Comforting Pasta Fagioli), seafood (Scallops Casino with Bowties), meat (Beef and Glass Noodles, Chic Chorizo), and salad (Couscous and Lentil Salad, Rotelle a la Greek Salad). Monday-to-Friday and the noodle: It's as perfect a match as spaghetti and meatballs.

Selection of the Better Homes & Gardens Family Book Service and Book-of-the-Month Club's HomeStyle Books. 55,000 copies in print.

This follow-up to Urvater's successful Monday-to-Friday Cookbook (LJ 9/15/91) is likely to be just as popular. This time around she offers close to 200 pasta recipes that take less than half an hour to prepare, along with lots of variations, ideas for jazzing up leftovers, and other tips for busy family cooks. Many recipes include suggestions for making them "Especially Good for Children" (or for adults, for company, or for dieters). Yes, yet another pasta cookbookbut the recipes are different and the format is very appealing. For most libraries.
