Ever stared at a pile of kale and wondered how to make it exciting? Kathryne Taylor, the genius behind the beloved Cookie + Kate blog, gets it. Her cookbook Love Real Food turns everyday veggies into meals that satisfy deeply, whether you're going full veggie or just cutting back on meat.
We all want to eat better—fresher ingredients, sustainable choices—but who has time for complicated recipes or bland results? Quinoa doesn't have to be boring, and granola can be your new breakfast hero. Taylor tackles these hurdles head-on with straightforward instructions that fit busy lives.
Every recipe prioritizes whole foods, with smart substitutions so gluten-free folks or dairy avoiders can join in without missing a beat. It's not just about eating vegetables; it's about enjoying them in ways that make you feel energized and content.
Imagine biting into granola that's crunchy, subtly sweet, and way better than store-bought. Or sipping a soup that warms you from the inside out on a chilly evening. Readers rave about how these meals leave them lighter yet satisfied—no post-meal slump here. Plus, Taylor weaves in personal stories, like her rescue dog Cookie 'helping' in the kitchen, adding a touch of heart to every page.
Whip up a batch of muffins for weekend brunch, pack salads for work lunches, or impress friends with pizza night. It's ideal for beginners dipping into plant-based cooking or seasoned cooks seeking fresh ideas. This hardcover gem, released in 2017, remains a go-to for anyone serious about feel-good food.
Grab Love Real Food and start cooking like you mean it—your body, belly, and even your pup will thank you.
