Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Granola for everyone

    • e_ballad on May 16, 2021

      Ignore the quantities specified in this recipe. Double them! My 3x kids devoured the whole lot in one sitting!!!

    • ccav on December 12, 2021

      This was really good and easy. Made with puffed kamut and sliced almonds.

  • Multigrain waffles & pancakes with variations

    • skvalentine on June 20, 2023

      Very good.

    • NicoleBrown on August 15, 2024

      Youngest requested waffles for breakfast & I wanted to try a new recipe from a library borrow. These turned out great! Halved the recipe as that’s all the buttermilk I had on hand + used rice flour. Nice and crispy! Will try a flavor variation next time!

  • Jasmine-chia breakfast pudding

    • EmilyR on March 23, 2021

      I've previously made this with coconut milk, which is far richer, but the Jasmine comes through with regular milk. Nice and simple.

  • Pinkest party dip

    • sayeater on October 07, 2021

      Comes together quickly. Used Rancho Gordo cassoulet beans that I pressure cooked. Bright pink color even without the dragonfruit powder. A solid bean dip, but no wow factor other than color.

  • Burrata ball, four ways: turmeric-garlic drizzle

    • EmilyR on March 29, 2021

      i don't need an excuse to eat burrata, but this is a nice change for something a bit different.

  • Peanut stew with spinach & miso

    • lizbot2000 on March 28, 2021

      This was great! Really easy and fast and delicious. I'll be making this again and experimenting with other curry pastes.

  • Paprika-spiced mushroom stew

    • mlbatt on December 29, 2021

      Indexing error - there's no tortellini in the recipe. However, there are mushrooms!

  • Sriracha-tomato soup

    • kath on December 29, 2021

      This tomato soup was simple and very good, BUT... 3 tablespoons of Sriracha made it way too hot for me. Even my heat-loving husband thought it was too spicy. I would definitely make it again, but probably with 1 tablespoon of Sriracha. I'd put the bottle of Sriracha on the table for people to spice it up, if they want.

  • Coconut-asparagus soup

    • Sobeltone on May 16, 2025

      Easy and so good! Nice spring soup!

    • KateS27 on May 25, 2026

      Really yummy! I’m not sure if it was the green curry paste I used, but it was the most prominent flavor. I love the spice it added, but I wish I tasted the asparagus and coconut a bit more. Other than that, super tasty and easy-to-make soup!

  • Jalapeño-lime split pea soup

    • lizbot2000 on March 28, 2021

      This was wonderful. The yogurt and hemp hearts really add to it, and I was surprised at how much I liked the jalapeño and salsa verde with the split peas. Easy, fast, delicious.

    • VineTomato on September 29, 2022

      I enjoyed this. Mr VT has a small complaint that it was a lot of the same. I used the tomatillo sauce from Cool Chile, it was nice but next time I might make my own salsa with more herbs and punch. We topped with feta and toasted sunflower seeds. Didn't have any yogurt in the fridge but I think this could have been a lovely addition.

  • Spicy citrus & harissa carrot soup

    • Rutikazooty on April 24, 2026

      Made this soup in April 2026. It was delicious. I added a little under the 2 Tbsp of harissa (1-1/2 Tbsp) since I knew I could add more. It was a nice mild level of heat. I toasted almonds and used those and cilantro on the top of the soup. This is the first recipe I've made from a book that was given to me by my friend. I knew of Heidi Swanson and just decided to open the book and pick the first recipe that sounded good for dinner. This was the the first or second recipe I looked at!

  • Feisty tofu with broccoli, chile & nuts

    • Frogcake on September 15, 2025

      It is indeed a feisty tofu recipe! Excellent flavour combination. I added a squeeze of lemon to the stir fry to brighten it. Simple, and comes together quickly.

  • Jalapeño-cheddar socca

    • EmilyR on March 31, 2021

      Perfect little savory chickpea pancakes. I paired it with a salted labneh... also made the beet + feta variant from the book.

  • Roasted chile-peanut tofu

    • mlbatt on December 29, 2021

      I expected more from this, it was just okay. Hubby liked it a bit more than I did, though.

  • Coconut-baked tofu with broccoli & beans

    • EmilyR on March 31, 2021

      After surveying the foods I had on hand I then saw the Cilantro-green curry paste here as well as the rest of the ingredients and it was kismet. This is a simple and effortless dish - as many I've made in this book seem to be, but packed with flavor.

  • Easy olive oil cale

    • kath on October 31, 2023

      This cake is really fabulous! So easy, and SO good! I used finely chopped dried mango instead of the berries. It worked well, but berries would have been more colorful.

  • Cilantro-green curry paste

    • EmilyR on March 31, 2021

      Needed green curry paste in a pinch and here it is! Flavorful and effortless to make.

  • Fresh cashew milk
