Mega-bestselling author Tieghan Gerard is busier than ever — always creating recipes, taking photographs, and collaborating with friends. Having started her passion for cooking at a young age, she knows about the need for delicious, soul-warming food . . . and getting it ready in a hurry.
Half Baked Harvest Quick and Cozy is a collection of more than 120 recipes that reflect the way she cooks now: simple ingredients, easy to get on the table, short on time yet big on flavor.
Tieghan’s best memories of being with family and sharing great food make her feel cozy—any time of the year— and now she wants to share that feeling with her community. This collection leans into the comfort food she’s known for, but with an eye toward quick and easy prep. With many recipes doable in one pot or pan, most in under forty-five minutes, and a more-is-more focus on flavor (but not ingredients), you’ll be feasting fast.
Start the day with Maple Bacon Pancakes and Bourbon Maple Syrup, snack on Cheesy Roasted Shallot Bread, or make Garlic Butter Steak Bites with Bang Bang Sauce your family’s new favorite. Enjoy delicious twists like Sheet Pan Mac & Cheese with all the crispy edges, and, of course, finish it all off with something sweet, like a Dark Chocolate Pistachio Cake with Cream Cheese Icing.
Relying on accessible ingredients and Tieghan’s signature knack for making sauces and dressings that you’ll want to double to always have on hand, these recipes will make your meals feel like a warm hug. If you’ve ever needed a belly full of comfort and a plate bursting with fresh, unexpected flavors—and wanted it all right now — Half Baked Harvest Quick & Cozy is for you.
