  "Review by Maria Coleman" A first look at this recipe book was a bit daunting. Maroon-brown hard cover with that crispy-but-juicy look of the turkey and all the trimmings will surely bring up your appetite. "Fabulous Leftover Turkey", really?? With so many turkey recipes out there what makes this one stand out? First, it's the creativity of the author, Fida Abbott, who smartly combine two great cultures: Indonesia, where she from, and America, where her husband from, into these recipes. The result? Ten great dishes that are easy to prepare. Second, not like others, the author also shares her story of how she came up with recipe ideas and it's background. This makes cooking more enjoyable. Third, pictures are nice. Even though they could be more attractive if they were more focussed and clearer. I personally like the setting and layout, even though in some pages margins are uneven. But it doesn't hurt much. Four, this book is for everyone. I'm vegetarian, but that... More > doesn't mean I cannot use this recipe book. It gives me confidence to play around with non-meat ingredients. And last but not least, this board-book is a bit pricey. But you need to know that Fida Abbott donates her profit for cancer research. So, you'll get the great recipe book and doing a good deed at the same time. That's what's fabulous! I definitely will recommend it to you. Can't wait for another series, Fida!

  "Attractive and Creative" Two words I can describe about this cookbook; attractive and creative. I enjoy the stories the author wrote. Photographs are great. I hope she will publish the second book soon and keep supporting the others who are in needs. GBU
