One Plate at a Time

"From Grammy-nominated singer, actress, and advocate Demi Lovato, a deeply personal cookbook focused on finding healing and nourishment in the kitchen Demi Lovato might not be the first name that comes to mind for a celebrity cookbook. In her own words: "You may be wondering, Who the heck does this girl think she is, writing a cookbook? Isn‘t she famous for having issues around food? Does she even know how to cook?" And yet, it is precisely this struggle that inspired One Plate at a Time. Because for Demi, learning to find joy in the kitchen was lifesaving. And now she wants to share that joy with everyone. Demi‘s cooking journey started when she almost thirty, after years spent in recovery from anorexia and bulimia. Getting comfortable behind the stove and preparing simple yet wholesome meals has been critical to her healing and has allowed her to connect with her creativity in a new way. In One Plate at a Time, Demi offers eighty recipes meant to inspire comfort and confidence in the kitchen. While many cookbooks can feel overwhelming-filled with a dizzying array of choices and unfamiliar ingredients-One Plate at a Time is made up of a simple, manageable selection of recipes that emphasize enjoyment over perfection. Covering everything from breakfasts to snacks to mains to desserts, Demi shares her "top five" of every dish, including five satisfying soups, five sturdy salads, five perfect pastas, five fifteen-minute dinners, five surefire comfort foods, five desserts that wow, and more. Filled with beautiful food and lifestyle photography, deeply personal anecdotes, pantry tips, cooking hacks, and reliably foolproof, satisfying recipes, this is a cookbook for Demi Lovato fans, for people who struggle to enjoy food without guilt, and for anyone looking for a gentler, more grounded approach to cooking. One Plate at a Time is Demi‘s set list for a delicious new way of thinking about food and how it fits into our lives"-- Provided by publisher.
