Lunch well : 85 recipes to bring a spark to the midday meal / Green, Fern

Much ink has been spilled over packing desirable lunches for kids, but for adults, lunch is often the neglected meal. With too many time constraints placed on it, lunch often becomes a sad desk-side meal. Rather than sidelining this important meal, why not use it as an opportunity to infuse your day with a bit of self-care, and a chance to refuel for a productive second half of your day. With 85 recipes, Lunch Well offers a road map: meals that take 15 minutes or less, meals that require only 5 ingredients, how to use one vegetable for three different lunches, and how to turn toast and tinned fish into a perfect meal. It's packed with abundant tips on how to build your pantry to make lunching easier and faster, how to prep while you're making your morning coffee, and quick ferments for better gut-health. With an eye to reusing ingredients and making good use of leftovers, not to mention packing to avoid spills and soggy ingredients, this is a practical book to reshape your relationship with the midday meal.

"Mindful snacking is the philosophy that food stylist and prolific author Suzanne Lenzer lives by. Who doesn't love standing in front of a full fridge wondering what to pull out for a covert snack?

Peckish is divided into charming chapters sorted by vessel such as On Toast, In Jars, Skewers & Sticks, In Bowls, and even the helpful Napkins Only so that the home cook can plan their snacking night with ease whether they're eating for one or entertaining a group of friends"--

Project griddle : the versatile art of grilling on a flattop / Raichlen, Steven

"Griddles (aka planchas and flattops) are soaring in popularity, and Project Griddle -- from Steven Raichlen, America's bestselling grilling authority -- is an essential guide for everyone who owns them. Prized for their accessibility and versatility -- and because they're so much fun to use -- griddles (also known as planchas and flattops) are soaring in popularity. Project Griddle features the trademark Raichlen approach that embraces history, geography, and anthropology, with plenty of practical cooking techniques and nearly 80 hunger-inducing recipes. It traces the history and geography of griddling, from the teppan of Japan to the plancha of Spain to champa grilling in South America. A gear chapter showcases the various types of stand-up and portable flattops and planchas, plus the requisite accessories, how to season and maintain a griddle, how to oil and cook on it, with chefs' shortcuts, and some pitfalls to watch out for. And then there are the recipes -- each one as outrageously delicious and foolproof as the last, for classics like the crispiest smash burgers and tapas bar shrimp to an entire suite of heretofore un-grillable foods -- egg-and-bacon breakfast feasts, potato latkes, crepes, French toast, and smoky fried rice. It's Project Smoke for griddles -- and don't think of buying one without its guidance"--
