About the Author:
Christa believes in the importance of solid, home cooked meals and has always advocated cooking from scratch, preferring to know what is in the food she eats and serves to her family. "Too much food is pre-packed, pre-made, and preserved these days and cooking and baking to most people means opening a can or a box, adding one or two ingredients, and baking or serving. These basic skills are becoming lost arts," she says. She passed these principles on as she raised her daughter, Tanya, bringing her into the kitchen at a young age.

This book grew out of Christa's desire to share her skills with not only her daughter, but with the world. Designed for the novice in the kitchen, these recipes are easy and most are quick to prepare, while useful for those on a budget. With something for everyone between the covers, Christa and her family hope you enjoy them as much as they do!
