The recipes include: breakfast, beans and grains, soups and chilis, poultry, beef and pork, vegetables and side dishes, desserts, and pantry staples like marinara sauce, broths, and even yogurt and applesauce. The recipes are clear and fairly easy to follow. I wish there were more color photographs of the finished meals, since I am a visual cook. In addition, it would be helpful to have the preparation and cooking times more prominently featured.
Some of our favorite dishes from this book include:
- Brown Butter Steel-Cut Oatmeal
