Everyone knows the benefits of home cooking: tastier, healthier meals and significant savings. But some nights there's just no time to make dinner from scratch. And sure, you can make a casserole and keep it in the fridge or freezer--but why struggle with all the guesswork involved in making a recipe ahead (how long can you safely store it? Will it dry out in the fridge? Will the texture be affected by the freezer? How much do you need to increase the baking time?) And how many times have you been stuck cooking at the last minute while your guests enjoyed the party? Enter America's Test Kitchen. We've eliminated the guesswork with 500 foolproof recipes so that you can cook on your own schedule."
