Many families strive to eat dinner together every night,
but family schedules tend to be hectic. Still, simple reci-
pes can make it that much easier to routinely sit down
to family meals no matter how busy everyone’s lives
become.
While award-winning cookbook author Diana Henry
admits she’s never eaten the following recipe for “Turk-
ish Baked Eggplant with Chile, Feta and Mint” in Tur-
key, she insists that lack of authenticity does nothing to
aff ect the meal’s fl avor. Th is and many additional Henry
recipes can be found in her cookbook, “Pure Simple
Cooking: Eff ortless Meals Every Day” (Ten Speed
Press).
