Maximum impact for minimum effort is something every busy home cook can get behind. For Ali Rosen, who is a mother, full-time journalist, and host of the show “Potluck With Ali Rosen,” her modus operandi is making impressive-looking dishes with little effort.
By her own admission, she is somewhat embarrassing (to her husband, at least), in that she’ll take compliments for a beautiful dish and shoot right back with how it took her just 20 minutes to prepare. Her latest endeavor, the new cookbook “Bring It! Tried and True Recipes for Potlucks and Casual Entertaining,” to be released on March 13, is based on a realistic look at the time restraints that home cooks face.
