The author of Start Simple redefines "dinner" in this creative cookbook that elevates snacks and grazing foods to main-course status, filled with 100 recipes and 75 color photos. ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED COOKBOOKS OF 2022-Food & Wine, Bon Appetit, Bookriot We've all been there. Pressed for time, patience, or the will to cook yet another meal, we turn to eating snacks for dinner. While these "meals" are often thrown together, there is no denying that grazing on smaller bites is less stressful and often more pleasurable than planning and preparing a traditional meal. In Snacks for Dinner, Volger transforms carefree noshing into nourishing meals with recipes to inspire your own make-from-scratch snack spreads that are not only quick to makes, but also deeply satisfying. The perfect snack-y dinner revolves around 7 main components: Crispy-Crunchy: Savory Bites Tangy-Juicy: Pickles & Marinades Scooped and Smeared: Dips & Spreads Centerpiece-ish: A Little Heartier Small but Mighty: Spoon Salads & Soup Shots Vessels: Crackers, Breads, & Chips Sips-Sweets: Drinks & Desserts Volger shows how these flavorful components can be mixed and matched to create a palate-pleasing meal. Following Volger's guidance, you may start out with a few Smoky Glazed Pistachios for crunch and add some zesty Orange & Mustard Marinated Asparagus with a side of Honey Pickled Shallots. Craving something creamy? Try a Toasted Walnut and Feta Dip or Gingery Green Tahini with homemade Nut & Seed Crackers or crudites. The possibilities are endless. Best of all, many of these bites can be made ahead and stored in the fridge or pantry for easy assembly. With Volger's simple, wholesome, recipes and pairing guidance, snacks for dinner is no longer shameful-but a healthy, fun, and respectable choice.

Many people are intrigued by the current trend for veganism. This book is for all those who want to 'have a go' - whether it's simply to improve their diet or lighten the load on the planet - but who don't have the time or the inclination to follow a vegan diet full time. There are numerous glossy vegan cookbooks (and authors) extolling the benefits of everything from making nut milks to replicating the taste of cheese. This book is different. The recipes in The Part-time Vegan are straightforward, feature readily available ingredients and are, of course, delicious, because they are based on the best simple, natural flavours that nature has to offer. As well as providing recipes for midweek and weekend breakfasts, lunches and main meals, the book covers why being a part-time vegan is a great approach to health - when we balance vegan recipes with high-quality sources non-processed meat, fish and dairy. After all, variety is key to a healthy diet.
