Book description
GrossyPelosi is famously the hostess with the mostest—now it's your turn to invite everyone in.Dan Pelosi believes every day can be a celebration—and wherever there's a celebration, there's a menu waiting to be planned. In his second cookbook, the New York Times bestselling author dishes out more than 100 of his larger-than-life recipes, organized into sixteen distinct dinner parties designed to take the guesswork out of what to serve when and what goes with what. Some celebrations are familiar, like Giving Thanks (but—surprise!—we're having roast chicken), and others prove any time calls for entertaining: Breakfast for Dinner makes your pajamas party-worthy with RAISIN WALNUT BAKED FRENCH TOAST (which you can assemble ahead of time). The menus and recipes will carry you through every season of life, and of the year, too: When the sun comes out, lay out by the pool with BEANY BIKINI DIP or cool off with no-cook-tomato sauce SUNSHINE PASTA. After the showers bring forth flowers, carve out a night for LAMB CHOPS WITH TANGY APRICOT SAUCE, one of Bimpy's forever favorites. Bet you never thought of PUMPKIN CIDER BRAISED PORK SHOULDER as a way to get your seasonal spice fix! And, of course, you'll know when it's time to preheat your oven to replicate Dan's iconic Holiday Cookie Party.Whether you follow a menu as is or mix and match recipes, Dan helps you find the joy in every part of hosting, from setting the guest list to politely letting your company know when it's time to go home, sharing his favorite family tidbits along the way (including his dad's guide for Italian American slang—capisce?). For seasoned hosts and first-timers alike, this book is your manual. Save the date, dress up the table, and choose your outfit ... now LET'S PARTY!
