Comfort classics with a lighter spin, from the creator of the
healthy-eating blog Well Plated by Erin.
Known for her incredibly approachable, slimmed-down, and outrageously
delicious recipes, Erin Clarke is the creator of the smash-hit food blog
in the healthy-eating blogosphere, Well Plated by Erin. Clarke's site
welcomes millions of readers, and with good reason: Her recipes are
fast, budget-friendly, and clever; she never includes an ingredient you
can't find in a regular supermarket or that isn't essential to a dish's
success, and she hacks her recipes for maximum nutrition by using the
"stealthy healthy" ingredient swaps she's mastered so that you don't
lose an ounce of flavor.
In this essential cookbook for everyday cooking, Clarke shares more than
130 brand-new rapid-fire recipes, along with secrets to lightening up
classic comfort favorites inspired by her midwestern roots, and clever
recipe hacks that will enable you to put a healthy meal on the table any
night of the week. Many of the recipes feature a single ingredient used
in multiple, ingenious ways, such as Sweet Potato Boats 5 Ways. The
recipes are affordable and keep practicality top-of-mind. She's
eliminated odd leftover "orphan" ingredients and included Market Swaps
so you can adjust the ingredients based on the season or what you have
on hand. To help you make the most of your cooking, she's even included
tips to store and reheat leftovers, as well as clever ideas to turn them
into an entirely new dish. From One-Pot Creamy Sundried Tomato Orzo to
Sheet Pan Tandoori Chicken, all of the recipes are accessible to cooks
of every level, and so indulgent you won't detect the healthy
ingredients. As Clarke always hears from her readers, "My family doesn't
like healthy food, but they LOVED this!" This is your homey guide to a
healthier kitchen.
