Maybe you suffer from insomnia or skin disorders. Maybe it's digestive ailments like IBS or ulcers. Maybe you've been diagnosed with osteoporosis. There's no shortage of diet information on the internet these days, but it seems a little extreme for your tastes. Isn't there a way to get back to basics? Isn't there a way to eat healthy and maybe even resolve some of your health issues without resorting to cutting out major food groups? Convenience Doesn't Have to Cost You Your Health Maybe your health concerns aren't so dramatic, but you still want to feed your family the best food you can. Maybe you're just looking for a meal you can put on the table in mere minutes after you get home from work. Something hearty, satisfying, and healthy that you can prepare ahead of time and have ready for any meal of the day. The solution to convenient, healthy meals won't be found in any box, can, or package. All you'll find there is MSG, trans fats, and "natural" flavors. No, the solution to a simple, hearty meal will start in your stockpot. Soup, It's What's for Dinner Craig Fear knows soup. Not in a pretentious, chef-y way, but in a way your grandmother might, and he's collected his best recipes in Fearless Broths and Soups. Affordable, nourishing, and fast-that's what this book is about. Gain confidence in the kitchen. Get your kids (and fellow adults) to like broccoli. Learn how cooking in bulk can save you time and money. Never have another blank stare when asked, "What's for breakfast/lunch/dinner?" It's soup!

Book excerpt: Part culinary adventure, part serious cookbook, Sea and Smoke chronicles the plucky ambition of a young chef to establish a world-class dining destination in an unlikely place. A native of the Pacific Northwest, two-time James Beard winning chef Blaine Wetzel saw Lummi Island, a rugged place with fewer than 1,000 residents off the coast of Seattle, as the ideal venue for his unique brand of hyperlocalism. Sea and Smoke is a culinary celebration of what is good, flavorful, and nearby, with recipes like Herring Roe on Kelp with Charred Dandelions and Smoked Mussels creating an intimate relationship between the food and landscape of the Pacific Northwest. The smokehouse, the fisherman, and the farmer yield the ingredients for unforgettable meals at The Willows Inn, a reflection of Wetzel's commitment both to locally-sourced ingredients and the sights, smells, and tastes of the foggy, coastal environment of Lummi Island. Award-winning journalist Joe Ray tells the tale of the Inn's rise to stardom, documenting how all the pieces came together to make a reservation at Wetzel's remote restaurant one of the most sought-after in the world.

Anne's effervescent personality and unmatched vitality will be there every step of the way--as teacher, coach, cooking partner, and friend. Organized from “Piccolini and Firsts” to “Pasta, Seconds, Sides,” and, of course, “Dessert” Cook Like a Rock Star is all about empowering you with the confidence to own what you do in your kitchen, to be excited by what you're making, and to experience the same kind of joy that Anne feels everyday when she cooks and eats.

The Soup Club began when four friends (who, between them, have four husbands and ten hungry kids and several jobs) realized that they didn’t actually have to cook at home every night to take pleasure in a home-cooked meal. They simply had to join forces and share meals, even if they weren’t actually eating them together.

All you need are a few people who simply want to have more home-cooked food in their lives. In a soup club each person takes a turn making soup. Soup is forgiving, versatile, and perfect for sharing; it can be spiced to taste, topped elaborately or not at all, and dressed up or down. It travels well and reheats beautifully. The Soup Club Cookbook also has dozens of tips for cooking in quantity and for tailoring soup to individual tastes and needs. Here, too, are simple guidelines for starting your own soup club, anecdotes, and a few cautionary tales that will inspire anyone to share food and eat well. Recipes include quick and easies, classics, twist on favorites, and dozens of flavor-rich new crowd pleasers, including: • Carrot Coconut and Chicken Chili, • Senegalese Peanut Soup • Faux Ramen • Red Lentil Curry Soup • Potato Cheddar Soup • Sun Dried Tomato Soup • Jeweled Rice Salad • Cheddar Cornbread, • Summer Corn Hash • Soy Simmered Chicken Wings
