There are hearty, luscious but doable menus for a year of Sundays.” —NJ.com The family that eats together stays together! That’s what Lisa Caponigri believes, and she created Whatever Happened to Sunday Dinner? to give real families recipes they can easily cook and enjoy together. Caponigri has devised fifty-two delicious Italian menus—one for each Sunday of the year—that feature all the favorites, including classics like crostini, lasagne, polenta, stuffed peppers, veal piccata, risotto alla Milanese, and ricotta pie. There are also many surprises like Woodman’s pasta and Italian french fries—and traditional, treasured dishes from her own family’s kitchen, such as Nana’s Strufoli and Grandma Caponigri’s Ragu Sauce. Beautifully photographed by Guy Ambrosino, Whatever Happened to Sunday Dinner? showcases food styling by former Gourmet magazine editor Kate Winslow. “[A] delightful guide to Italian family dining . . . well-written and beautifully presented . . . Whatever Happened to Sunday Dinner? will give you all the inspiration and practical information you need to make those family meals memorable and delicious.” —The Wall Street Journal “The book is flavored with Italian aphorisms, informative menu introductions and Caponigri’s family history . . . A good cookbook to gather a hungry crowd and leave them happily satiated.” —Kirkus Reviews
