Summary

“A grab bag of summer flavors and dishes . . . Think of van Boven as the activities director of your own culinary summer camp.” —The New York Times 
 
The author of Home Made and Home Made Winter returns with a new cookbook filled with tasty recipes, beautiful photos, clear instructions, and hand-drawn artwork throughout. Home Made Summer presents her absolute favorite recipes for spring and summer. Inspired by her childhood in Ireland and her summers in Provence, van Boven has created a collection sure to tempt you to step into the kitchen. Using seasonal ingredients, such as freshly picked apples and berries, delicate summer lettuces and fresh herbs, she presents recipes for Breakfast, Brunch & Lunch, Snacks, Beverages, Appetizers, Main Courses, and Dessert. 
 
“Home Made Summer is a happy book, fun to look at, fun to read. It’s downright frivolous, in fact. And that’s what summer is all about.” —The New York Times Book Review 
 
“In the last two years, she has published three cookbooks, Home Made, Home Made Winter and Home Made Summer, that exemplify the indie spirit: They're filled with her illustrations and do-it-yourself recipes, like hand-cranked ice cream, from-scratch mustards and Dutch-style beef sausages and croquettes.” —Food & Wine 
 
“Flipping through the pages feels a bit like stepping into a fantasy land, one with jars and jars of citrusy-tomato mayonnaise awaiting crab cakes and stacks of powdered sugar-dusted ‘ultimate puffy pancakes’ (topped with crème fraîche and berries in lieu of syrup).” —LA Weekly 
 
“Stunning savory dishes.” —Serious Eats 
 
“Yvette’s attitude, like her recipes, is lighthearted and friendly, her header notes charmingly personal, and her thorough instructions chatty and fun.” —BookPage

    By the authors of the IACP award-winning cookbook Keepers: Defeat the obstacles and get dinner on the table—with organizational strategies and 135 recipes.   Between work, family activities, mismatched schedules, and often bare refrigerators, there are all sorts of situations that make weeknight cooking a universally challenging—and frustrating—experience. The Dinner Plan offers five meal strategies—Make-Ahead, Staggered, One-Dish, Extra-Fast, and Pantry—that will help get dinner on the table no matter what the workweek throws at you.   The 135 recipes—from main dishes to sides to salads and “lifesaver” condiments—provide lots of practical options whether time is super-tight, you haven’t had a chance to run to the store, or everyone is coming home at a different time. And most importantly, all of the recipes are “keepers”—brag-worthy, reliable, crowd-pleasing preparations that you’ll confidently turn to again and again. Shrimp Scampi, Sheet-Pan Chicken Fajitas, Foolproof Carbonara, and Mexican Skillet Lasagna are just a few examples of doable recipes that will earn their place in any busy cook’s repertoire. Rounded out with plenty of tips and a bonus section on healthful snacks called The Forgotten Meal, The Dinner Plan is every home cook’s indis­pensable weeknight dinner guide.   “A savvy addition to the weeknight dinner genre.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

    "Which seeds will you be eating first? There are so many to choose from! Seeds have been and continue to be some of the most nutrient-dense foods available. They serve a variety of purposes, improve your health, and make a tasty addition to any meal. Seeds are high in fiber, low in sugar, contain essential fatty acids, protein, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. All of these work together to boost your cardiovascular health, manage blood sugar levels, improve cellular health, and aid digestion. Some of these seeds contain high amounts of specific nutrients that serve other purposes such as increasing fertility or preventing cancers. With so many benefits in a spoonful of seeds, adding them to your diet shouldn’t be a question at all. As with any food, seeds can cause adverse reactions. Use the information in this book to understand what could happen, and always talk to a medical professional if you are uncertain about whether adding seeds to your diet is right for you. Introducing any new food to your body takes time, so don’t rush into eating a bunch of seeds on day one. This will only cause digestive discomfort and might put you off using seeds in the future. It is much better to introduce one type of seed at a time, and only consume a small amount (about a teaspoon) for several days before you build up to larger daily amounts. If you do want to get the benefit from multiple seeds, then purchase a mixed bag, and add them to your diet."
