Dedication

This book is dedicated to our mothers, Toni and Irene, who gave us an appreciation for the simple things in life: relationships, good food, and foods nurturing powers. Moms kitchen was always a warm place and a gathering of family and friends where we made strong connections. It was a place to have a good time, make people happy, connect to our roots, and preserve culinary traditions. Teaching us how to prepare wholesome, ethnic food was their greatest gift to us and future generations, a real language of love.

Authors Acknowledgments

We would like to acknowledge the team that made this book possible.

Our agent, Matt Wagner, whose support and guidance is always timely and helpful; and our acquisitions editor, Erin Calligan Mooney, for bringing this project our way.

A book cant come together without our excellent team of editors. We are truly grateful to our project editor, Heike Baird, for her guidance and exceptional effort through this process. Our copy editor, Christine Pingleton, and the technical reviewer, Desire de Waal, were invaluable in providing us with a final product that we can be proud of. Our recipe tester extraordinaire, Emily Nolan, helped us fine-tune our recipes. Finally, we truly appreciate the tedious but important task of nutritional analysis provided by Angie Scheetz (with the National Institute for Fitness and Sport) and Patty Santelli.

Rosanne would like to thank her husband, Dave, for his continuous support in allowing her to fulfill her goals and dreams, which often requires his tolerance for her high-energy projects. She also thanks her beautiful sons, Matt, Max, and Marcus, without whose teamwork this book could not have been completed. Rosanne thanks them for emptying the dishwasher, helping with dinner, and entertaining themselves all summer long while she spent days writing.
