Product Description
Even if a hectic schedule leaves you with no time to think about what's for dinner, you don't have to resort to leftovers or take-out! Getting a wholesome, homemade meal on the table after a busy day can be easy, and Diane Phillips shows you how in You've Got It Made. This book features 150 recipes that can be prepped and assembled ahead of time, refrigerated or frozen, and baked right before serving. Dishes include everything from appetizers to entrees to desserts, with casseroles, quiches, gratins, pasta and grain dishes, potpies, breads, fruit cobblers, cookies, and more. Recipes include Prosciutto Palmiers, Honey-Teriyaki Chicken Wings, Asian Braised Short Ribs, Pork Osso Buco with Parmesan Polenta, Tuscan Stuffed Chicken Breasts, Old-Fashioned Mac and Cheese with Variations, Seafood Florentine, Bananas Foster French Toast, and Chocolate Lava Cakes. For each recipe, Phillips gives you tips on do-ahead preparation and how best to freeze/refrigerate your meals, and her thorough introduction covers all the basics of making food in advance, including ingredients, equipment, food safety, and technique.

no pictures needed April 10, 2009
Susan W. Shepard (Redwood City, CA USA)
This is a terrific cookbook-especialy the recipe for chicken enchiladas-it does not need pictures to make it a good book. The whole concept of needing pictures in a cookbook is beyond me. I co-authored a cookbook that sold thousands upon thousands of books with nary a picture and never heard one complaint about the lack of them.
 Too much fat January 19, 2009

I like the flavor combinations suggested in the recipes, but the liberal use of butter and heavy cream is shocking to me. I didn't think people really cooked like that anymore. I will be returning it because a freezer full of calorie bombs doesn't help me so much as hurt me.
 Fantastic Book January 8, 2009
Faye Weaver (Spokane, WA USA)
This is a great book, full of easy to follow recipes. I found a recipe for every occasion.
What A Great Find! May 29, 2008

When my hubbie and I needed to go across the state to help out my uncle and aunt (both in their 80s) after a hospitalization, I was able to make up several (one very easy, one a bit more work) dishes before we left to take with us. What a great thing to just be able to pop an already prepared meal into the oven for a bit. What I really enjoyed is that these recipes are a blend of casserole types so not all of them have a rice or noodle base.
The recipes we tried were absolutely delicious and I have ear-marked many others to fix. The only thing I could see as a drawback is no nutritional values are listed.

M. A. Freeman (Florida)
This is a superior book for those who like to get the work done ahead of the dinner so they can enjoy their guests. The recipes I've tried so far have really wowed our guests, especially the appetizers that were wrapped in puff pastry. I love Diane Phillips books!
