Spiral Bound. Zustand: Fair. Illustrated by Brisebois, Wendy Hart (illustrator). First Edition. "Early in 1981, The Sun challenged creative cooks with a recipe contest. The response was overwhelming.

All the recipes were outstanding, but with a limited number of prizes, we had to single out just a few for initial publication. This book is a further selection. By popular request, also included are favorites from our Supercook series and other cooking features which have appeared in recent years in The Sun Food Section." - Introduction.
