If you are Canadian and grew up in the 70's, 80's or 90's, there is a good chance that your mom had at least one Best of Bridge cookbook in your house. My Mom had a few and while I loved everything she cooked out of them, I also loved just reading the books for the recipes and cheesy jokes too.
This is Aces - More Recipes From The Best of Bridge - and I think The Mister bought this one from the used bookstore for me. This one covers pretty much all the categories - breakfast, appies, mains, veggies, desserts.....
It's a straightforward book, most recipes are less than a page, with few photos.
This book was already a winner for me based on this chicken and asparagus recipe alone, but we tried a whole bunch more stuff.
We tried 3 cookie recipes - granola cookies, chocolate chocolate chip cookies, and macadamia cookies in which I subbed walnuts for macadamia nuts. Soooooooo good. We made a honey mustard chicken that was good, and a sticky chicken that was bland. Pesto lasagne - delicious! Fried noodles Singapore made with pork instead of chicken and shrimp, and pasta with artichoke sauce.
This one is definitely staying on the shelf - there is lots more I want to try!
