Cooking is an art, but it doesn’t have to be difficult. Learning how to build around a few fresh, delicious ingredients — with full-page illustrations showing the way — makes kitchen time easy and fun.

With its innovative, visual approach to casual cooking, FRESH MADE SIMPLE is both inviting to beginners and inspiring to good cooks. Seventy-five recipes give the simplest, freshest ingredients a gourmet spin. An avocado, seasoned with lime and salt, elevates a fried egg on toast. Fresh-picked blueberries combined with steamed corn add sweetness and texture to Bisquick pancakes. Crisp Bibb lettuce becomes a salad cup of cucumber, tomato, red onion, feta, and angel hair pasta. Snacks, drinks, meals, and desserts are all represented in this creative collection that’s organized by preparation technique — from stacked and sliced to tossed and scrambled.

With its playful full-motion illustrations, FRESH MADE SIMPLE shows how to bring delicious tastes to any table with ease and elegance!
