"[Keepers] may be the best-value weeknight cookbook around." --The Boston Globe

Keeper: A brag-worthy, reliable, crowd-pleasing recipe that you confidently turn to again and again.

We all need keepers in our lives, especially when it comes to weeknight meals. Whether you have a family to feed, are a couple stuck in a jarred pasta sauce rut, or are single and in charge of your own kitchen for the first time, weeknight cooking can be challenging. Finding the time and inspiration to put good, healthful, homemade food on the table day after day isn't easy.

Drawing from two decades of trial-and-error in their own kitchens, as well as working alongside savvy chefs and talented home cooks, former Saveur editors Caroline Campion and Kathy Brennan offer 120 appealing, satisfying recipes ideal for weeknight meals. They include classic dishes with options for substitutions, updated old favorites, one-pot meals, "international" dishes, and others that reheat well or can be cooked in individual portions, such as:

- Fish Fingers with Lime-Ginger Dipping Sauce
- Coconut Chicken Curry
- Smoky Turkey Chili
- Beef Stroganoff
- Asian Pork Sliders with Magic Miso-Mayo
- Black Bean and Butternut Squash Enchiladas
- Kale Carbonara
- One-Bowl Summer Spaghetti

- And much more!

Along with these timeless recipes, Keepers is filled with invaluable tips on meal planning and preparation, all presented in an entertaining, encouraging, and empathetic style.
