Tieghan Gerard is known, both on her blog and in her debut cookbook, Half Baked Harvest: Recipes from My Barn in the Mountains, for her stunningly beautiful meals and thoughtful recipes that are simple, colorful and taste even better than they look. With Half Baked Harvest Super Simple: More Than 125 Recipes for Instant, Overnight, Meal-Prepped and Easy Comfort Foods (Clarkson Potter; October 29, 2019; $29.99; Hardcover) Gerard takes what fans loved most about her debut and offers more manageable dishes with fewer ingredients for time-crunched weekday meals that are truly delicious.
With this new volume, fans will swoon over Tieghan’s freshly-sourced recipes which are distilled into quicker dishes using trending techniques from the almighty Instant Pot to night-before meal prep. Sharing the easiest version of a recipe, without sacrificing taste, some dishes have more than ten ingredients and some take a bit longer to prep, but most are on the table in 30 minutes or less.!
As Tieghan shares “If you can throw ingredients into a slow cooker, use an Instant Pot, dump it all in one skillet, or simply pick up a few items from the grocery store to assemble something quick, you can handle these recipes.” Replete with her “Tieghan Touches” which can include an unexpected ingredient or garnishing with interesting herbs or edible flowers, the magic that is Half Baked Harvest is in full glory—in half the time—with this volume.
