I’ve spent the last 3.5 years working my absolute hardest on every aspect of this book for one reason: to give YOU the best recipes and essential tips and tools to make DELICIOUS, healthy food attainable any night of the week. THE WELL PLATED COOKBOOK IS OFFICIALLY FOR SALE AND YOU CAN PURCHASE IT HERE: Boswell Books (my local Milwaukee bookstore; you can get an autographed copy for a limited time) Barnes & Noble Target Indiebound Or anywhere books are sold! I can’t thank you enough for your support over the years. I am excited beyond belief for this book to be in your hands (AT LAST), and I hope you fall as in love with the recipes as I (and my friends, family, and recipe testers) did! The Well Plated Cookbook is for EVERYONE. It has 130+ NEW recipes for every meal, whether you need a fast, easy weeknight dinner (the biggest section by far!), a healthy make-ahead breakfast your kids will adore, or a special treat to surprise loved ones. These recipes are my FAVORITES of all the ones I have ever created, and they WORK. Every recipe has been meticulously tested multiple times, including by independent recipe testers. Every recipe comes with a gorgeous photo! I’ve done much more than give you a selection of stellar recipes. Each one is its own mini tool kit. You’ll find:
EASY TO FIND INGREDIENTS. No going to specialty stores! Recipe spin-offs. Many of the recipes feature a single ingredient used in multiple, ingenious ways. I also included different recipe spin-offs, so you can start with one base recipe, then vary it up to keep your meals exciting and new. Ways to store, reheat, and even turn leftovers into a whole new meal. Ideas for market swaps to use the ingredients you have on hand. No weird orphan ingredients! Wherever possible, I eliminated strange, awkward leftovers, such as half-empty cans of beans. “Un-Recipes.” I get that life is busy and sometimes you don’t have time (or just aren’t in the mood) to make dinner. This book is here to keep you feeling inspired and give you shortcuts to alleviate some of the stress and drag of healthy eating, which is why I also have special features like “4 Things to Do with a Can of Chickpeas” and “4 Unboring Ways to Use Shredded Chicken.” Produce amounts that make sense. You’ll always know how much produce to buy. If a recipe calls for “2 cups shredded carrots,” it will also state “about 10 ounces or 4 medium.” AND SO MUCH MORE!!!
^^That’s a tiny sneak peek of what’s inside. These recipes are SO GOOD.
