  This is a collection of recipes providing mix and match menus for simple lunches or full-scale dinners. The pages are sliced horizontally into three sections which cover soups and starters, main dishes and puddings. The result is a variety of recipe cards which are interchangeable to provide a wide variety of menus, and all three courses can be seen at-a-glance. To help plan balanced meals, each recipe is colour coded for richness, lightness or neutrality. The recipes range from dishes that are suitable for small family lunches, to dinner parties. Some recipes, considered by the author to be timeless, simple and beyond fashion, have been retained from the original edition, and many are completely new. Recipes stem mostly from Britain, with some from America, France and Italy.
