This cookbook has blown me away. I've made three meals from it in the last week, and they've all been delicious, easy, highly adaptable, and healthy! There doesn't seem to be anything that writer/photographer/designer/food blogger Heidi Swanson can't do, and, fortunately, she does the food bit exceptionally well. The legions who follow 101Cookbooks.com will not be disappointed in this beautiful, useful recipe collection.

Publisher Comments:

Heidi Swanson's approach to cooking whole, natural foods has earned her a global readership. From her Northern California kitchen, she introduced us to a less-processed world of cooking and eating through her award-winning blog, 101 Cookbooks, and in her James Beard Award–nominated cookbook, Super Natural Cooking, she taught us how to expand our pantries and integrate nutrient-rich superfoods into our diets.

In Super Natural Every Day, Heidi helps us make nutritionally packed meals part of our daily repertoire by sharing a sumptuous collection of nearly 100 of her go-to recipes. These are the dishes that Heidi returns to again and again because they’re approachable, good for the body, and just plain delicious. This stylish cookbook is equal parts inspiration and instruction, showing us how to create a welcoming table filled with nourishing food for friends and family.

The seductively flavorful vegetarian recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, treats, and drinks are quick to the table but tasty enough to linger over. Grab a Millet Muffin or some flaky Yogurt Biscuits for breakfast on the go, or settle into a lazy Sunday morning with a stack of Multi-grain Pancakes and a steaming cup of Ginger Tea. A bowl of Summer Squash Soup or a couple of Chanterelle Tacos make for a light and healthy lunch, and for dinner, there’s Black Sesame Otsu, Pomegranate-Glazed Eggplant with Tempeh, or the aptly named Weeknight Curry. Heidi’s Rose Geranium Prosecco is the perfect start to a celebratory meal, and the Buttermilk Cake with fresh plums or Sweet Panzanella will satisfy even the most stubborn sweet tooth.

Gorgeously illustrated with over 100 photos that showcase the engaging rhythms of Heidi’s culinary life and travels, Super Natural Every Day reveals the beauty of uncomplicated food prepared well and reflects a realistic yet gourmet approach to a healthy and sophisticated natural foods lifestyle.

Review:

"The author of Super Natural Cooking and the blog 101 Cookbooks, Swanson offers a glimpse into her favorite everyday recipes. A huge and often preachy proponent of the buy organic/local/seasonal movement, she focuses on whole, natural foods including whole grains, whole grain flours, and fresh produce — ingredients that are seasonal and minimally processed. Recipes run the gamut from breakfast through desserts and include healthier variations of familiar favorites including crepes made with rye flour and ginger cookies with dried apricots and shaved chocolate. Lunch offerings include unique and palatable dishes such as kale salad with toasted coconut and sesame oil, and chanterelle tacos. Dinner recipes such as chickpea stew made with saffron, black pepper tempeh and weeknight curry made with tofu are big on flavor. Swanson spends several pages detailing her pantry staples including oils and fats, grains, and flours to guide those unfamiliar with key ingredients. For those looking to incorporate more healthful ingredients into their diet, Swanson offers a welcome variety of appetizing recipes that are easy enough to prepare on busy weeknights and sure to appeal.

This cookbook is inspiring, innovative, and insightful! Every recipe makes me ache to get into the kitchen and start cooking--and the photography is so incredible you almost want to lick the pages! I have made and served many things from Heidi's books and they have always been well received and thoroughly enjoyed by all. It can be easy to fall into vegetarian rut, but this book is full of new ideas, incredible flavor combinations, and new every day meals that will nourish your body and delight your tastebuds.

This isn't Advanced Cooking by any means, but after reading this cover to cover (yes, really) I feel like I can manage to feed myself using nothing more than the contents of my CSA box and a handful of pantry staples. The photography is very inspiring. The recipes are hearty and there are lots of oatmeal options, which completely wins my heart.

Heidi's approach to whole, natural foods is at once approachable and innovative at the same time! The stunning photographs draw you in, the unique combinations of flavors captivate your senses, and the straight forward preparation gives you the confidence to actually get in the kitchen and make it! I find myself turning to this book again and again for both new inspiration as well as to remake dishes that have already become my all-time favorites! These recipes are quick enough for the everyday, yet impressive enough for special occasions. The ingredients are simple to find, though I usually have them all on hand--but somehow Heidi's recipes in this book are able to transform basic ingredients into phenomenal, satisfying perfection. If you are looking for easy and delicious was to incorporate more unprocessed, real foods into your diet--this is the book for you! The recipes are vegetarian and could easily be adjusted to suit carnivores in most cases--although I encourage you to just make it Heidi's way the first time and see that no one will miss the meat!
