Guide Review
A Real American Breakfast by Cheryl Alters Jamison and Bill Jamison
You can eat a doughnut in the car or you can eat a real breakfast in the morning. This book will inspire you to do the latter. This collection of recipes will compel you to rise earlier in the morning, dig out your heavy skillet and take the time to savor the meal that usually receives the least attention.

From eggs to seafood, and meats to breads you will find recipes that answer your search for the ideal breakfast menu. Filled with tips on saving time and cooking techniques, quotations from famous people about food and eating, menu suggestions collected from wide-ranging sources, and the history behind many of these dishes, you'll find this book a fascinating read and a tasty addition to any cookbook collection.
