Cookbook of the Month – November 2020
Right now, we have been chased into the kitchen over and over again during the Covid-19 pandemic with no signs of ending just yet. Supporting local restaurants is important but not always feasible.Trying to please every palate can be a chore. This cookbook has something for everyone.
Timing is part of making a meal successful. You’ll learn to cook smarter, faster, and cleaner. Gather all your ingredients in one place then dice, chop, shred or slice before starting to cook. And when it comes to fresh ingredients, shop seasonally and locally. Your food will be much tastier than mass produced. Let me just say, no more making the same 12 recipes over and over.

Most recipes in this cookbook offer variations to make them vegetarian, lighter, and the ability to change ingredients which are hard to find or you dislike. Sara sparks your creative mind in cooking as she says you don’t always need a recipe. As more and more ingredients become available, we have a growing appreciation for healthy, variety, and flexibility.
