If you haven’t got time to waste, Jamie and Bobby Deen have
the meals to make. Imagine getting dinner on the table for
your family in forty-five minutes or less. In this inspired
and indispensable new cookbook, Paula Deen’s sons show you
how to whip up 125 delicious Southern-style recipes quicker
than you can say, “Come and get it!”
The Deen
brothers know a lot about cooking good food fast. They
hosted the Food Network hit Road Tasted, appear
regularly on Good Morning America, and are co-owners
(with their mom) of Savannah’s famous The Lady & Sons
Restaurant. Their fast-paced lifestyles require no-fuss
meals without a lot of prep. Jamie’s a family man who’s got
to work, serve supper, and still chase after his
three-year-old son. Bobby, one of People magazine’s most
eligible bachelors, appreciates a good meal before heading
out to work at his restaurant or for a night on the town.
They’re the perfect guys to write a guide to swift dishes
that don’t stint on taste or Southern
authenticity.
This mouthwatering collection offers
dishes that really deliver on flavor yet can be prepared
within a budget. There are no hard-to-find ingredients or
tricky techniques to follow, just the tasty, irresistible
cooking that the Deens have come to be known for. For lunch,
dinner, or late-night snacks, if you’ve got meat in mind,
how about Speedy Mini-Meat Loaves with Baked Sweet Potato
Wedges? If chicken’s your choice, Broiled Pesto Chicken with
Cherry Tomatoes is a satisfying possibility. And if you’re
really on the go, there are whole chapters devoted to simple
grilling and crockpot cooking.
Lighter fare includes
Turkey and Black Bean Burgers with Corny Salsa and Jerk
Shrimp Kebabs with Tomatoes, Onions, and Peppers, and
main-course salads such as Jamie’s Nutty Orange Chicken
Salad. If you have kids, they will love Yummy Orange Beef
Fingers. In fact, in honor of Jamie’s son, there’s a whole
chapter devoted to kids’ food called “Jack’s Favorites”
(which might become your kids’ favorites too!). And what’s a
meal without dessert? Jamie and Bobby offer their favorite
temptations, ranging from Chocolate Peanut-Butter Malteds to
Quick Blackberry Cream Pie.
Seasoned with wonderful
never-before-seen color photos of the entire Deen family and
sprinkled liberally with Jamie’s and Bobby’s down-home
charm, and including signature dishes from The Lady &
Sons Restaurant, The Deen Bros. Take It Easy is a
treat in itself for anyone with a full life and an empty
stomach.
