Cook the Book: 'The Bon Appétit Fast Easy Fresh Cookbook'
I marinate a whole chicken overnight in teriyaki and garlic, then the next night it's ready for roasting - scrumptious! I serve it with steamed brussel sprouts doused with lemon and a side of basmati rice.
Cook the Book: 'Olives and Oranges'
baby carrots - I could eat the whole bag in one sitting!

A few years ago I had the joy of spending a few nights on Peru's Amantani island, which is on Lake Titicaca and at an elevation of 12,000 feet. The island has no electricity, so we ate on dirt floors by candlelight in the kitchen quarters of the home. Our hostess made a delectable soup from a variety of local potatoes and vegetables - cooked on an open fire. What a simple but unforgettable meal and experience.
