Excerpt

Week in a Day is a concept for busy

foodies with impossible schedules.

Like most of my friends and family, I

have one day off a week—if I’m lucky. I shop early

in the day and then I go home, get organized,

separate ingredients, put on some comfy jeans

or jammies, open some wine, and then I cook.

Sometimes I’ll spend fi ve or six hours straight

chopping, roasting, and stirring simmering pots.

But when I’m done, we have enough food for as

many as fi ve nights—a whole workweek—right in

the fridge and freezer. When the day is especially

long or you’re feeling extra exhausted, imagine

how comforting it is to know that dinner—your

own homemade delicious food—is waiting for you

as soon as you walk in. Pop a pot on the stove or

throw that casserole into the oven, and by the

time you have changed your clothes and checked

your e-mails, dinner is served.

Whether you cook two meals or fi ve, the idea

of Week in a Day is that you get a leg up on the

long week ahead so any night you don’t feel like

cooking, you already have!

In addition, I have created a special section

that makes another fun promise for busy

foodies: 1 Grocery Bag, 3 Meals. With a basic

pantry and one bag of groceries, you can cook

up three delicious, simple suppers. Also, check

out the QR codes and bring this book to life

with additional content, recipes, tips, and tricks

from me to you.
