The recipes are very short, easy to follow and use basic ingredients. We all have to eat dinner and it doesn't have to be difficult to make a delicious meal. So many cookbooks intimidate the reader to the point of being scared to try. With these recipes, you'll always succeed and feel proud of making them yourself."Better the World and Drink Better Coffee - Slow roasted and organically grown, the coffee from Larrys Beans is surely a treat.
