Who has time to prepare meals these days? Time-starved cooks need recipes that are quick to fix, easy for anyone to make, and delicious and satisfying.

The solution? FIX-IT AND FORGET-IT 5-INGREDIENT FAVORITES by The New York Times best-selling author, Phyllis Pellman Good. Using five ingredients or less, plus a slow cooker, the recipes in this new cookbook offer convenience and comfort to any cook with a busy life and hungry people to feed.

The collection is packed with more than 700 recipes submitted by at-home cooks from around the country, with each recipe including prep time and cooking time. The recipes have been tested and include clear, step-by-step procedures. The book is available in three different bindings to suit every home cook's needs: hardcover, paperback, and spiral comb-bound for ease-of-use while cooking.

Recipes include:

• Italian Country-Style Pork Ribs
• Creamy Vegetable Soup
• Salmon Soufflé
• Beef Ravioli Casserole
• Chicken Broccoli Alfredo
• Barbecued Black Beans with Sweet Potatoes
• Streusel Cake
• Chocolate Soufflé

Good says that she likes her cookbooks to be inviting to all cooks, especially those who don't have a lot of time or a lot of confidence in the kitchen. She finds that many cookbooks intimidate the average at-home cook, and her goal is to offer recipes that make cooking easy and quick, as well as relaxing and fun — all with tasty results!

Fix-It and Enjoy-It Cookbook, the first book in her all-purpose series of cookbooks, has sold more than 300,000 copies since its release in April 2006.

FIX-IT AND FORGET-IT 5-INGREDIENT FAVORITES, with more than 700 recipes submitted by excellent cooks from around the country, is sure to become the at-home cook's new faithful companion.
