Bread Tomato Garlic is a cookbook written with quality of life in mind. Each recipe focuses on just three main ingredients, so that preparation time can be minimized and enjoyment and relaxation can be maximized. For breakfast try hearty sourdough bread topped with bacon and avocado; for lunch whip up a warm Italian salad of fresh baby clams and cannellini beans flavored with fresh mint. Serve sea red lamb chops in hoisin marinade accompanied by Chinese broccoli, and your Friday night dinner party will go off without a hitch.

Review
The title "Bread Tomato Garlic: Quick Cooking With 3 Main Ingredients" may lead you to think that this book is based solely on meals with crusty bread, succulent tomatoes and aromatic garlic. In fact, there are several imaginative and easy-to-fix dishes to be found. These are based on different trios of prime ingredients plus "a supporting cast" of others you already may have on hand. With sprightly text and good directions, Australian author Jill Dupleix presents such enticing edibles as baked chicken wrapped in prosciutto, lamb chops marinated in hoisin sauce with Chinese broccoli, and an Italian pasta frittata with bacon and Parmesan cheese. Don't look for fancy recipe titles, just listings by three ingredients--like chocolate coffee rum. Yum. Attractive photography by Geoff Lung. -- Phoenix Home & Garden magazine, June 1999
About the Author
Jill Dupleix grew up on a farm where her family milked a cow for their breakfast milk, and picked peas straight from the vine for dinner. She now leads a busy life in Sydney--hosting cooking demonstrations on television, writing weekly columns for the "Sydney Morning Herald," and doing food comentary on the radio--but she hasn't forgotten the importance of fresh, simple food. She believes the kitchen is the real living room of the house, where everyone should go to relax and have a good time. Besides, it's where she keeps the Chardonnay.

This review is from: Bread, Tomato, Garlic: Quick Cooking With 3 Main Ingredients (Paperback)
I loved this cookbook. I have a collection of over 60 cookbooks and this has become an instant favorite. The recipes involve simple ingredients in unusual combinations; the instructions are wonderfully easy to follow. This is the kind of cookbook that allows me the luxury of enjoying a delicious meal even after a 9 or 10 hour workday.I give extra credit to Geoff Lung, whose beautiful photos make you want to take a bite out of the page.My thanks to Jill Dupleix for providing the perfect Christmas gift for several of my nearest and dearest this year.
