Savory Bites

Description

Hollis Wilder, the first two-time champion of Food Network's Cupcake Wars takes the traditional sweet cupcake in a new direction, with fresh flavors and a new savory look. The trusty cupcake pan works just as well for satisfying mini meals as it does for decadent sweets. Small, uniform portions make it easier to avoid overeating, and the meals are perfect for making ahead of time and freezing for the week in single or family-size portions. Hollis provides tips for having children help with the cooking to make a more enjoyable family mealtime. With 100 exciting recipes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, such as Apple-Sausage Breakfast Cakes, Fig and Blue Cheese Tarts, Pumpkin Risotto, and Curried Chicken with Mango, Savory Bites proves a cupcake pan isn't just for sweets and is sure to please any palate or budget. Praise for Savory Bites: "While Wilder channels her inner Julia Child with updated aspic recipes featuring roasted vegetables, other dishes are simply comfort foods in cupcake tins." -Today.com
