The Everlasting Meal Cookbook: Leftovers A-Z by Tamar Adler

5.0

This is a fantastic cookbook that is unique in both its content and organization. It is warm and inviting, just like the food it encourages you to use to prevent waste. I really appreciated how loosely the recipes can be interpreted, as well as the general guidance and best practices for re-using and using up leftovers, especially produce. Let's face it, we all have had a drawer of wilted veggies and less than appetizing looking fruit, right? I know I do! I also really appreciated the "this one is tricky, just do your best" style recipes because I am a simple cook and some things are beyond my skill level. I found this book wholly inviting, not intimidating, and gracious in every aspect--just like all my favorite cooks!
