Healthy Made Simple – by Ella Mills

Often, cookbooks leave a gap between “add the beans to the rice, then microwave” and “delicately embarrass the green-shooted scallions with assiduous garlic before adding to the matelote of orrazata flamed in Sapient Pear Brandy”. This book fills that gap:

It has dishes good for entertaining, and dishes good for eating on a Tuesday night after a long day. Sometimes, they’re even the same dishes.

It has a focus on what’s pleasing, easy, healthy, and consistent with being cooked in a real home kitchen for real people.

The book offers 75 recipes that:

1. Take under 30 minutes to make*
2. Contain 10 ingredients or fewer
3. Have no more than 5 steps
4. Are healthy and packed with goodness
5. Are delicious and flavorful

*With a selection for under 15 minutes, too!

A strength of the book is that it’s based on practical, real-world cooking, and as such, there are sections such as “Prep-ahead [meals]”, and “cook once, eat twice”, etc.

Just because one is cooking with simple fresh ingredients doesn’t mean that everything bought today must be used today!

Bottom line: if you’d like simple, healthy recipe ideas that lend themselves well to home-cooking and prepping ahead / enjoying leftovers the next day, this is an excellent book for you.
