Sam Zien is a regular guy who cooks great food. No cutesy
patter. No foo-foo ingredients. Just easy, great-tasting
stuff that real people like you can make, served up with
lots of humor. All of which has made him one of today's
fastest-rising TV food stars—the host of Sam the Cooking Guy
as well as Just Cook This! on the Discovery Health Channel.
Sam's e-mail inbox has long been flooded with requests for a
cookbook. Now, he finally delivers. Just a Bunch of Recipes features 126 of Sam's all-time
favorite recipes. All of them are big in taste and small in
effort—crowd-pleasingdishes that skip the weird ingredients
and complicated steps and focus on the flavor. You can't go
wrong with any of Sam's recipes—they're all seriously good
and seriously easy. Once you start fixing them for your
family and friends, you'll be the one everyone turns tofor
great everyday food. For quick family meals, Sam is your man. Choose from recipes
like Shrimp Tacos,Buffalo Chicken Pizza, and Steak Salad
withBlue Cheese Crumbles as well as super-fast favorites
such as Chili Corn Chip Bags and Tomato and Potato Chip
Sandwiches. On weekends, kick things off with a Pastrami
Benedict or Banana Bread French Toast for brunch—then wow
your friends with "company" dishes like Tomato and Yellow
Pepper Gazpacho and Teriyaki and Bacon Scallops. Try out a
"Three-Two-One" Bloody Mary, Sammy-Boy's Margarita, or Lager
and Lime for good measure. And for dessert, forget about
it—you haven't lived until you've tried Sam's Ice-Cream
Sandwich Deal, Doughnutmis? ("tiramis?" made with powdered
doughnuts), and Grilled Pound Cake with Fresh Fruit. Complete with photos of Sam as well as his inimitable take
on essential kitchen tools and ingredients, Sam the Cooking
Guy is all you need to start fixing food that's unbelievably
easy and delicious. So make a run to the store, invite some
friends, and head for the kitchen. As Sam says, "You can
