A room for the night;: Hotels of the Old West,

This book is not a greens based cookbook; rather it is a collection of salads which combined with a good bread and wine make full luncheons. The ingredients are internationally inspired and, as such, offer some new ideas: an eggplant, olive and tahini salad; a middle eastern pilaf salad. It uses cheeses in interesting ways - a warm camembert salad, a layered cheese and ham salad. Meat and fish figure frequently into these combinations.This is a good cookbook if you are looking for substantial, full meal salads - the recipes are quick and easy but never dull.
