I received an Advance Reader Copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
From the publisher - A sophisicated, yet simple take on cooking with whole foods--filled with creative combinations that use fewer ingredients to elevate everyday fare into something extraordinary. More with Less bridges the gap between quick, everyday cooking and elegant, healthy food. Using simple equation-like combinations, this book inspires readers to make luxurious meals with very few ingredients and very little time. Unlike the time-saving cookbooks that rely on processed ingredients and unhealthy shortcuts, Jodi Moreno makes beautiful ingredients and simple cooking techniques the focus of your everyday meals.
The book will also teach you how to maximize pantry ingredients and homemade condiments that quickly add layers of complexity to create elegant weeknight dinners. Start your day with the Coconut + Cherry + Oatmeal Souffle for breakfast, the Honey Roasted Nectarines + Kale with Dukkah + Oat Croutons for lunch, and finish with Crispy Cauliflower Steaks + Ginger Scallion Sauce for a light dinner. Filled with over 130 approachable recipes perfect for a busy weeknight, but also sophisticated enough to serve at a dinner party. You will find tips on how to make the most of the whole vegetable, from root to leaf, and tips for turning leftovers into something spectacular.
THANK YOU #NETGALLEY !!! When reading the description I thought to myself --- FINALLY SOMETHING I CAN USE THE DUKKAH ON! (Mind you, I now know that there are MANY things I can use the Dukkah that one of the ladies in my "basic meal prep" class that I taught gave me - I put it in the Kale Pesto that was in this book as well.
Every day I hear from my clients and students "how can I get more whole foods into my kids/husband/family as they will balk at what I think of as whole foods!" Well, this is the book for them! The Miso Oats looks incredible --- all the recipes in the books and sections have stunning photography. Photography so awesome I want to buy the book when it comes out and rip out the pages and frame them!!!!! I love everything about this cookbook and so will you! Buy it!!!
