Gerard Mazza's Real Family Cookin': How to Feed a Big Family

If you're raising a large family, you know how expensive a trip to the grocery store can be. In Gerard Mazza's Real Family Cookin', this former meat cutter turned stay-at-home dad shares his own recipes as well as traditional recipes passed down from his grandmother and mother. Penny-pinchers will be guided through the process of cooking delicious meals for their large families without spending a lot of money. Former New Yorker Gerard Mazza and his wife are raising five children. He has spent a lot of time in the kitchen cooking for his large family. In this book, Mazza shares a multitude of recipes with readers who want to buy food in bulk so that they can prepare popular comfort foods, such as chicken and dumplings; meals for a crowd, like barbequed pork; and delectable desserts, such as lip-smacking chocolate pie. All of the simple recipes use easy-to-find ingredients and will serve at least seven, with some recipes feeding as many as thirty guests. Throw the frozen pizzas away and stop frequenting fast-food restaurants where everyone knows your name. Gerard Mazza's Real Family Cookin' provides you with fresh ideas and traditional recipes, so you can feed your family at home for much less!
