#JulyJourneys
Yesterday May have been #SimplicityDay but it was a Monday & I taught class all day & there was nothing simple about it. That‘s great why I am catching up on yesterday‘s prompt today with some “simple” & “simply” titled cookbooks from my cookbook collection, including some from the Donna Hay “Simple Essentials” series in the bottom corner.🧑🏼🍳📚💙
I might be obsessed with the differences between UK & US covers!

#BookMail Pt12 Another cookbook with easy to follow recipes that look very tasty. The recipes in this are graded by how simple they are to do which is awesome. Plus there‘s chapters about cooking times, mixing flavors and more. Definitely will be trying a lot of these meals. Yum.🥘🥗🥧🧁
I did fail to mention when I confessed to buying a cookbook at Anthropologie on Friday that this beauty was on its way to my house.🤗I've been salivating over it for months & months & kept putting it on library hold so when I got a $25 Amazon gift card for filling out a survey/review, I finally caved & bought it. It arrived yesterday, joining my other Ottolenghi books. 💚The man is a genius with flavor.

pickI am really excited about this cookbook. I read it through and can‘t wait to try out a bunch of the recipes.
so-so4 stars for what we come to expect from the photography and fresh ingredient cooking of Ottolenghi. However, for my location and stage of life it‘s another coffee table book to drool over, not really cook from. I‘d pay a lot of $ to eat at his restaurant though!
We‘re counting cookbooks, right?? I read a lot of them!!
Today's soup for #soupersundays is Puy Lentil & Eggplant Stew from Ottolenghi's newest cookbook. Easy & Ottolenghi's usual combination of great flavors & textures from the lentils to the silky eggplant & sweet bursts from the tomatoes. I replaced the creme fraiche on top with labne (thickened yogurt). Really good. I can tell that I will be buying this cookbook when my copy goes back to the library. 🥄📚❤️ Link to 🍲recipe with my changes is 👇🏻
Fruitful stop at the library earlier. The middle books were due back today but I got to renew them (good because The Cooking Gene is for my virtual foodie book club) & the top book is in my to-read stack & I'm the first to check it out. The best is the tagged book-the newest by one of my very favorite chefs. I know I'll end up buying it but it's always nice to try it out first & I'm the first check out on it too.🎉#newlibrarybooklove 📚❤️#bookhaul
