Now that I’ve seen the final book in print—and am, no joke, cooking from it every single week—I’m even more excited for you to have your copy. Remember that if you preorder the book before publication day (August 25th), I’ll email you an exclusive recipe bundle with extra recipes that went through the same rigorous testing process as the ones in the cookbook. These recipes aren’t in the book or on my blog. The only way you can get them is if you preorder. It’s my way of saying thanks for your support. Find out how to get your bonus recipes here. And the cookbook itself? It is INCREDIBLE. The Well Plated Cookbook is 320 pages of 130+ NEW recipes, not blog repeats. It features my signature lightened-up spins on family favorites and includes recipes for every meal.
The biggest section by far is the healthy dinners. I have LOTS of one-pan meals (like the Sheet Pan Tandoori Chicken, pictured above) and quick-fix dishes to help you land a wholesome meal on the table any night of the week. The recipes are designed to be affordable and practical. I keep budget in mind, have eliminated annoying leftover orphan ingredients (no half-empty cans of beans, please), and you can find the ingredients at an average grocery store.
And best of all? These recipes don’t simply taste good. They are fantastic. Hands-down, my book has the best recipes I’ve ever created. Every single one of the recipes makes me dance around the kitchen and earned glowing reviews from family, friends, and independent recipe testers. If a recipe didn’t, it didn’t make it into the book.
Not only does this book give you great recipes, it is USEFUL. I took the recipes a step farther by including helpful information such as:
Leftover Love. How to store, reheat, and even repurpose leftovers into a fresh new meal. Market Swaps. How to adapt the recipe to ingredients you have on hand. Next Level. Easy ways to elevate the recipe, should you be in the mood. One Recipe, Multiple Ways. This is one of the parts I’m most excited about! For many of the recipes, I give you a great base recipe (like Ultimate Creamy Mac and Cheese), then include separate recipe spinoffs so that you can use that base to create something new (Tomato Basil Mac or Spicy Cajun Mac, anyone?).
AND I’ve even got you covered with “no recipe” recipes for the nights you barely have time to cook like 4 Unboring Ways to Use Shredded Chicken and Stuffed Sweet Potatoes (5 Ways!). Every recipe has a gorgeous photo, taken by Becky (you can read all about our wild photoshoot weeks here).
