It's perfectly fine, but not great. As usual, it leans bizarrely heavily on two of my most hated ingredients: cinnamon and mushrooms. Someone at Canadian Living thinks that there is no recipe that cannot be improved by mushrooms or cinnamon, or for all I know, both. The previous incarnation of this book, by a different author, was far superior.
