Quick, what kind of food does Bella order in the Italian restaurant in Port Angeles?

If you answered “Mushroom Ravioli” – or your teenage daughter just shouted the answer from across the room – then “Love at First Bite: The Unofficial Twilight Cookbook” (iUniverse, $14.95) is right up your alley.

This week, in honor of the phenom that is “Twilight: Eclipse,” try making “Wolf Pack Waffles” and “Forbidden Love Coconut Lemon Crumb Squares.”

The recipes in “Love at First Bite” are not exactly sophisticated – there’s actually one for frying an egg – but they have cutesie names like “Bella Loves Edward Punch” that will automatically light up the neurotransmitters of any fan of the “Twilight” series.

Many of the recipes are dishes featured in the books and movies, while others are just inspired by the foods that Bella and the other characters enjoy – or not, depending how human they are.

The black-and-white photos in the book are not only boring, in some cases they are downright unappetizing. But this book also has some fun content others do not: namely a “Twilight” trivia quiz and a “Twilight” party planning guide.

And if you’re looking to be horrified, look no further than the lobster salad recipe. It comes with a ketchup dressing.

Now that’s scary.
