Cook the Book: 'New Classic Family Dinners'

When I think of family dinners I think of meatloaf and mashed potatoes. That probably stands out in my mind because I enjoyed mixing it together with my hands!

For yeast bread, definitely challah. But I love making all sorts of quick breads and muffins with "hidden" vegetables!

We called it "chicken and glop", but it was chicken and rice. How did my mother put up with us?

It depends on the weather for me, but at this time of year it's roast chicken, mashed potatoes, peas (homegrown, please; frozen peas from the store are inevitably overripe), green salad, and pie.

Gosh, my favorite family dinner!? That's hard . My family is full of great cooks so I guess it has more to do with the atmosphere. So then I would have to go with Christmas eve dinner. 14 cousins plus 16 Aunts and Uncles all eating and drinking and being merry. Usually there's a goose (which doesn't hurt) and floating islands for desert. super yummm, it warms my heart just to think about it.

Our favorite comfort food is mapo tofu - spicy and warming - over rice with some sauteed greens. Something about one bowl foods you can hold in your hand do it for us...

Boring but comforting - an overly stuffed tuna salad sandwich, on wonderful crusty rye bread, a slight smear of mayo, crisp iceberg lettuce, juicy tomato, cut in half please.

Irish Coddle. A big pot, almost stew but with not quite enough liquid, of potatoes, bacon, sausage and onion. Gets you fattened up for hibernation season.

One of my favorite family meals is banh xeo. They're savory, yellow crepes and having all sorts of people in my family through marriage, some being born in Vietnam, some being born here, etc., my mom gets a lot of different requests as to what to put in them. First she makes the vegetarian kind for those folks then regular Americanized ones then the hardcore ones.

(I posted this in the wrong place earlier today--so this is a "re"post!) A general comment about all the "Cook the Book" posts and recipes: The publishers are very smart to provide five free copies to SE because your write-ups have caused me to go online and buy many many cookbooks that I never would have known about otherwise! Sometimes I enter the giveaway with a comment, but I know my chances of winning are slim, so I go ahead and order the book in a frenzy of impatience. The Mark Peel cookbook is an example; it will be winging its way to me today because I love the cover photo and the recipes for green bean salad and mashed potatoes--and I can't wait to receive it! This has been true for several other cookbooks, too. (One time I actually won the cookbook in the SE giveaway, and had to give that second copy to my son. He was Seriously Happy!)

My favorite family dinner that I make for my roomies is pulled pork sandwiches! Maybe a side of spicy thai cole slaw.

Homemade pizza! Usually 3 different varieties... last time it was alfredo sauce, fresh mozz, marinated artichoke hearts, baby spinach, leftover grilled chicken; marinara, fresh mozz, diced fresh pineapple, julienned canadian bacon, and oregano; and marinara, shredded mozz, and pepperoni for the kids. Everyone gets to help and everyone gets what they want. Then a big caesar salad w/homemade croutons and dressing.

I would have to say that my favorite has always been a tie between my grandmothers beef roast and fried chicken. The roast was always cooked with carrots and potatoes that was grown in our garden, served with green beans that we canned our self, and cabbage slaw made with Italian dressing. The fried chicken was always served with mashed potatoes, fried squash from our garden, fried okra from our garden, and green beans. Their was always rolls to go with it, slathered with jelly she had canned. She always makes gravy, brown from the roast, or light white gravy from the fried chicken. It's always better when my grandmother makes it, even if my mother tries to replicate it.

My mother's fried chicken, green salad with Italian dressing (and lemon juice and celery salt), potato salad, dirty rice, and iced tea. Standard Sunday lunch growing up.

I love bbq ribs with corn muffins, macaroni and cheese, and collard greens as a favorite family meal. So delicious!

I always remember having a homemade pizza being a great family dinner. It gets the whole family together for prep and everyone can have their own input...I am excited to be able to use pizza as a bonding experience when my children are ready for it.

I think of evenings at my grandmothers house when she would make a big pot of Japanese style curry (in the cubes they sell at Asian food stores) served with chicken katsu, rice and homemade pickles. mmmmm
