{Book Review} Breakfast for Dinner

My copy of Breakfast for Dinner arrived the day I was making my meal plans for the next two weeks. I thumbed through it and added a few recipes to my list. I tested out three recipes for dinner and one dessert. I was really looking forward to the release of this book as I make pancakes and eggs on a regular basis for dinner.

I’m a big fan of Lindsay’s first book, The Cookie Dough Lover’s Cookbook, and I had pretty high expectations for this book. She is pretty much my favorite blogger/author. I find her ideas original, creative and written for the everyday person. She’s managed to take a pretty standard idea and make a whole book of ideas without it being gimmicky.

Some of the recipes are a little more “out there” than the kind I usually make for a weeknight dinner but both the Grapefruit Risotto and Moroccan Chicken Cinnamon Rolls were tasty and a welcome break from my routine dishes. Alex even requested that they be made again soon. The Vietnamese Coffee Pops I made from the dessert chapter were a fun spin on a morning cup of coffee. I made the chocolate chip pancakes for dinner last night. I LOVE pancakes and these were perfect and fluffy with evenly distributed chocolate chips.

Quirk is also my favorite publisher. The books are good quality and the layout is always impressive. The book has three chapters, Main Dishes, Sides & Starters and Drinks & Desserts. All the recipes are in American cups but there is a metric conversion chart in the back for the Brits.

I received my copy from the publisher for review
