Gorgeous. . . . This is food that makes you feel invincible. New York Times Book Review

Eating whole foods can transform a diet, and mastering the art of cooking these foods can be easy with the proper techniques and strategies. In 20 chapters, Chaplin shares ingenious recipes incorporating the foods that are key to a healthy diet: seeds and nuts, fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and other plant-based foods. Chaplin offers her secrets for eating healthy every day: mastering some key recipes and reliable techniques and then varying the ingredients based on the occasion, the season, and what youre craving. Once the reader learns one of Chaplins base recipes, whether for gluten-free muffins, millet porridge, or baked marinated tempeh, the ways to adapt and customize it are endless: change the fruit depending on the season, include nuts or seeds for extra protein, or even change the dressing or flavoring to keep a diet varied. Chaplin encourages readers to seek out local and organic ingredients, stock their pantries with nutrient-rich whole food ingredients, prep ahead of time, and, most important, cook at home.

Named one of the Best New Cookbooks for Fall 2019 by Bon Apptit, Chowhound, Epicurious, Modern Farmer, Mind Body Green, and more

Theres no shortage of vegetarian cookbooks out there, but its rare that I find one that inspires me page after page as much as Amy Chaplins Whole Food Cooking Every Day. . . . And since most of the recipes in the book are designed to keep for five days or longer, you can mix and match a few recipes to make a weeks worth of healthy meals, even on a busy schedule.

New York Times Book Review

A treasure trove of healthy nourishment.
Forbes

[This] book recently garnered a 2020 James Beard Foundation award in the vegetable-focused cooking category, but for me, this tome is also a winner for COVID-style cooking. . . . Minimalist, straightforward, and replete with whole foods.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Some cookbook authors have earned my complete trust, and Amy Chaplin is one of them. Ive never made a thing I didnt love from her stunning first book. . . . [Her] latest, Whole Food Cooking Every Day, starts with the same philosophy as her first that cooking with ingredients as close to their natural state as possible can be inspiring and nourishing. But this time, she sets out to make the prospect even more accessible, using base recipes for pastas, soups, nut butters, sauces, beans, muffins and more, and then expanding each with multiple variations.
Washington Post

For anyone looking to add more plants to their plate, this cookbook by James Beard award-winner Amy Chaplin is a must.
Epicurious

This cookbook highlights [whole foods] in master recipes that can then be transformed into multiple satisfying meals throughout the week so its actually easy to stick to your best intentions (without sacrificing any flavor).
Chowhound

This is less a cookbook than an encyclopedia of healthy food. . . . It's a book of recipes, but it's also a book about how to cook and eat in a healthful way, making it a must-have for anyone looking to make over their mealtimes.
Mind Body Green

Gorgeous. . . . Every time I flip through it for ideas, I feel like I spent a day at the spa.
