Everyday Food: Great Food Fast (Vintage)
250 recipes for easy, delicious meals all year long
from the Kitchens of Martha Stewart Living
If you’re a fan of Martha Stewart’s Everyday Food magazine and television show, you’ll love Great Food Fast. And if you’re not familiar with either, then let me introduce you to a great resource, organized seasonally and sub-divided into course categories: Soups and Salads, Main Courses, Pastas, Sides, and Desserts. There’s also a helpful Basics chapter that covers Vinaigrettes, Rubs, Herb Sauces and more.

The meals boast a preparation time of under an hour and utilize techniques and tools that the average cook will have in her repertoire.
Super Natural Cooking: Five Ways To Incorporate Whole and Natural Ingredients into Your Cooking
by Heidi Swanson
Heidi Swanson is another great resource that I need to introduce you to. Her blog 101cookbooks.com is a wealth of information, recipes and insights. And her second cookbook, Super Natural Cooking, is a natural extension of her blog. It is a beautiful and well designed book full of gorgeous photography and delicious vegetarian recipes. Rather than organizing by season, Heidi’s book is divided into five interesting chapters: Explore a Wide Range of Grains, Cook by Color, Know Your Superfoods, and Use Natural Sweetners.

But for everyone else, Farmer John’s Cookbook is a great resource for information on storing and cooking the vegetables that grow on the Angelic Organic farm. But more importantly, it’s a book with stories and anecdotes that give you insight into the people and the process that gets your box of veggies from the ground to your home every week.
