plant-based recipes for the Western cook and kitchen. No wok
required! With her popular blog, Omnivore's Cookbook, Maggie Zhu is

After writing and launching Good and Cheap, the cookbook with a
social purpose that has over 500,000 copies in print, Leanne Brown
went into a tailspin. She was burnt out and depressed, and fell
into a pattern of using guilt and fear to get herself back into
facing the day. Her dream of becoming a cookbook author was turning
into a nightmare. Something had to change. What changed, and how,
is the journey of Good Enough, a deeply personal cookbook with a
profoundly uplifting, relatable message. A generous mix of essays,
stories and nearly 100 dazzling recipes, Good Enough is about
self-compassion, and knowing it's OK to have a cheese plate for
dinner. About the practice of gratitude, and ten breakfasts to
start your morning right, like Creamy Hands-Off Scrambled Eggs.
About cooking as self-care, and healing your spirit with a
comforting Salmon Dinner Pie. About overcoming barriers like social
anxiety, and embracing entertaining with Smoky Honey Shrimp Tacos
with Spicy Fennel Slaw. About knowing it's hard but you're
completely worth it--and indulging yourself with My Spicy Umami
Noodles. About giving yourself permission to feel great--so go
ahead, have another Sticky Toffee Cookie. There are no judgments
here. And ultimately, it's about embracing the joy of imperfection
to find peace and happiness in and out of the kitchen. Because good
enough is great.
70 DELICIOUS RECIPES TO SIMPLIFY YOUR LIFE. 'One easy shop and a
week of speedy suppers.' The Times 'The idea is simple: present a
shopping list of goods and you then rustle up meals for the next
seven days, saving time, food and money.' Balance Magazine 'The
food Ian cooks is always so simple, healthy and tasty.' Joe Wicks
'Realistically achievable, not requiring unfeasible amounts of
ingredients, skill or time,' Men's Health Say goodbye to multiple
trips to the supermarket and to wasted food at the end of the week.
The 7-Day Basket is the cookbook you have always wanted. Each
chapter starts with a shopping list for the week ahead, followed by
seven varied dinners to see you through the week. No more wandering
aimlessly round the supermarket wondering what to cook for dinner,
this book plans your week ahead, and will have you doing your food
shopping in no time. With 10 chapters in the book, Ian does the
hard work for you, so all you need to do is shop, cook and enjoy.
The secret is all in the planning and Ian's concept means you end
up with very little waste as many of the ingredients in the recipes
overlap. 1 shopping basket + 1 week = 7 dinners. Each recipe serves
two people but simply halve the ingredients if you're eating on
your own, or double them if you are a family of four. This will
quickly become your go-to recipe book and with your weekly
meal-planning sorted you'll no longer be faced with the dilemma of
'what shall we have for dinner tonight?' Example basket: Monday:
Sweet Potato Gnocchi with Popped Tomatoes Tuesday: Middle Eastern
Lamb with Toasted Breads & Sage Parmesan Oil Wednesday:
Spaghetti Alla Norma Thursday: Tomato Feta Salad with Toasted
Pistachio, Apple & Pomegranate Friday: Spicy Sesame Sea Bass
