Book Synopsis
As a veteran recipe developer, Alexis thought she had home cooking on lock until she became the primary caretaker and chef for her mother, which inspired her to think harder about cooking the daily task. Nights and Weekends is the solution to this quotidien dilemma, offering recipes that are eminently achievable for every time and effort constraint. In the Nights section, which is divided by type of food (such as Soups, Vegetable, Meat, Pasta, Fish), recipes have a short ingredient list that can be easily sourced, will come together in under 40 minutes, and only one pot or a sheet pan. The Weekend section is organized by type of meal--Brunch, Dinner, and a chapter on Snacks for informal gatherings--and features recipes that are slightly more adventurous, as well as a chapter on homemade desserts. Through dishes such as One-Pot Gnocchi Ragu, Everything Bagel Tomato Panzanella, Hot Butter Garlic Shrimp, 7-Minute Eggs with Mayo and Chile Oil, and Curried Chicken and Cauliflower Phyllo Pie, this cookbook not only gives you delicious meals, but it also gives you your invaluable time back to enjoy them.Review Quotes
"Alexis's new book is beautiful and brimming with brilliant ideas, and makes me excited to get in the kitchen. This smartly organized book will keep you inspired any day of the week. I want to cook everything in it!"
--COLU HENRY, author of Back Pocket Pasta and Colu Cooks: Easy Fancy Food
--DAN "GROSSY" PELOSI, New York Times bestselling author of Let's Eat "Many 'weeknight' cookbooks claim to deliver on quickness and ease, but Nights and Weekends is the first book I've ever seen to actually live up to the promise. In Nights, de Boschnek cuts corners in the smartest ways possible to deliver recipes that, both literally and practically, show you how quick a delicious meal can be made. In Weekends, she switches things up with party-style plating and lavish-feeling dishes that make eating feel celebratory."
--BEN MIMS, author of Crumbs "Alexis is the friend you always look forward to visiting because she constantly finds a way to make every meal feel special. Her cookbook encourages home cooks to do more of that: to celebrate every day of the week with approachable, flavor-packed, and highly rewarding recipes. Whether you're searching for casual dinners for busy weeknights or crowd-pleasing meals for your next weekend gathering, this cookbook has it all."
--CAROLINA GELEN, New York Times bestselling author of Pass the Plate "Alexis's kind soul, infectious passion for all things delicious, and hard-earned kitchen knowledge are on full display in the luscious pages of her new book. Her simple, seasonally inspired food is beautiful without being pretentious, achievable without feeling pedestrian, and hits that perfect balance between healthful and exciting, which is exactly how I want to eat all the time."
--CHRISTINA CHAEY, writer and recipe developer
