Deen Brothers make meals easy, fast
Comfort food is just something you start to crave when the weather gets cold. Whether its pasta, casseroles or meatloaf, everyone has different tastes that they want to warm up after a chilly day. Southern-style food tends to lead toward the comfort aspect in their cooking, and that’s all right by me. Jamie and Bobby Deen bring Southern cooking home in their new cookbook, “The Deen Bros. Take It Easy,” with collaborator, Melissa Clark. The Deens are the sons of Paula Deen, and own, along with their mother, The Lady & Sons Restaurant. They also have hosted Road Tested on the Food Network and appeared on Good Morning America. The family atmosphere of the book is evident from the first pages, with photos of the family enjoying time together, the boys with their mother, their children and their wives. There’s even a foreword from their famous mother.
