Product Description: No matter how busy you are, at the end of the day you want fresh, flavorful meals that are easy to prepare. And you want lots of choices and variations—recipes that call for your favorite foods and take advantage of excellent (and readily available) ingredients. In the first book from the award-winning magazine Everyday Food, you’ll find all of that: 250 simple recipes for delicious meals that are quick enough to make any day of the week.
Because a change in weather affects how we cook as much as what we cook, the recipes in Everyday Food are arranged by season. For spring, you’ll find speedy preparations for main-course salads, chicken, and poached salmon that minimize time spent at the stove; summer features quick techniques for grilling the very best burgers and kabobs as well as no-cook pasta sauces; for fall, there are braised meats and hearty main-course soups; and winter provides new takes on rich one-dish meals, roasts and stews, and hearty baked pastas. Finally, a chapter on basics explains how to make year-round staples such as foolproof roast chicken, risotto, couscous, and chocolate sauce.
Designed in a contemporary and easy-to-read format, Everyday Food boasts lush, full-color photography and plenty of suggestions for substitutions and variations. With Everyday Food, even the busiest on-the-go cook can look forward to meals that bring freshness, nutrition, and a range of flavors to dinner all week long.
Amazon.com Review: If you are a fan of Everyday Food magazine (and you should be), you will be wowed by Great Food Fast, a gorgeous full-color cookbook filled to bursting with recipes for fresh, flavorful food that is easy to prepare. Organized by season, Great Food Fast features simple recipes for year-round cooking, including no-cook pasta sauces, main-course soups, one-dish meals, and more. --Daphne Durham

Pan-fried Shrimp with Green Curry Cashew Sauce
Serves 4 Prep Time: 15 minutes Total time: 15 minutes
You can purchase bottled Thai green curry sauce in most supermarkets, but this recipe proves how quick and easy it is to make your own. Refrigerate any leftover sauce, covered, for up to 3 days.
1 slice (1/4 inch thick) peeled fresh ginger 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons roasted unsalted cashews 1/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt 1/4 cup packed cilantro leaves 1 tablespoon brown sugar 1 teaspoon curry powder Coarse salt and fresh ground pepper 1 1/2 pounds peeled and deveined large shrimp 2 tablespoons olive oil
1 In a food processor, pulse the ginger until finely chopped. Add the 3/4 cup cashews; process until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. 2 Add the yogurt, cilantro, sugar, and curry powder; season with salt. Process until incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed. Transfer to a serving bowl; sprinkle with the remaining cashews. 3 Season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the shrimp; cook until opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining tablespoon oil and remaining shrimp. Serve the shrimp with the sauce.
Customer Reviews Average Rating:  Rating: - Flavorful and easy! I huffed a little haughtily at buying a Martha Stewart book and again when I saw the simple recipes."How can it really be that good with so few ingredients?"

Rating: - I love this cookbook! I really like this cookbook. Within the first week of getting it I made two recipes from it. The recipes are simple but delicious and there is a section with basic tips and recipes.
Rating: - Great Food Fast Good cook book, using for the most part everyday ingredients.Easy meals out of the mundane, book arrive on time as described
Rating: - One of a handful of go-to cookbooks I subscribed to "Everyday Food" magazine when it first came out, and found the recipes to be original, fresh-tasting, and generally quick to prepare. The only problem with my growing stack of the little magazines was that I couldn't reliably find my favorite recipes. This cookbook distills down those first few years of the magazine to the very best recipes, and organizes them by season.
The photography is beautiful, as one would expect from Marfa, but this isn't just eye candy. They ... Read More
Rating: - Tasty and Useful! This is hands-down my favorite cookbook.The recipes are clear and always turn out well.The results are always much more impressive than one would imagine, given that most of them can be made in about half an hour.To me, this is the mark of a great cookbook.
The organization of the recipes by season is also a wonderful idea.It encourages readers to use seasonal ingredients, which means that simple recipes with fresh ingredients can be made to taste great without lots of extra work ... Read More
