Sara QuinnFirst to rec“This book is so good. I rarely cook from cookbooks bc I can’t follow recipes. But this one I go back to over and over. She’s a great recipe writer so you can actually make things as written. Her flavors are fantastic. She just has a great balance between practicality and flavor and there are so many things in here I actually want to eat.”

Rob“Underrated cookbook for busy people/parents. She gets the seasoning and acid right, just like Deb Perelman.”
