I came across the cookbook Smitten Kitchen Keepers over the holidays, and since then, I have made dozens of recipes. It is HANDS DOWN my favorite cookbook. Everything I have made has been absolutely delicious (and there have been many repeats) and literally everything in the cookbook, I want to try and eat. So if you want to be inspired in the kitchen, get this cookbook! I AM IN LOVE.

I love absolutely everything about this cookbook — the recipes (most importantly), the photos, the writing, all great.

I love this recipe I have made it twice — kale and lentils. Hearty, filling, and ever so delicious.
