IN GOOD HEALTH: UNCOMPLICATED, ALLERGEN-AWARE RECIPES FOR A NOURISHED LIFE

“You are what you eat” takes on a new meaning in this vibrant, health-centered cookbook. In her debut cookbook, Rachel Riggs reflects on her personal experience battling chronic conditions and approaches food as both medicine and joy. Her recipes are nutrient-dense, easy to follow, and designed for those with dysregulated immune systems, chronic illnesses, or food sensitivities. Yet they’re equally appealing to anyone seeking balance through whole, unprocessed foods. While common allergens like gluten are omitted, In Good Health never feels restrictive. Bold flavors, bright herbs, and seasonal produce take center stage, proving that healing foods can also be deeply satisfying. With over 75 recipes, Riggs has crafted a cookbook designed for people looking to fuel their bodies and promote health from the inside out.

THE KOREAN VEGAN: HOMEMADE

In her second cookbook, James Beard Award-winning author Joanne Lee Molinaro invites readers into her kitchen to share her beloved recipes, Korean pantry staples, and the memories behind her unique dishes. Molinaro is known for intertwining her veganized Korean cooking with intimate stories of her life, and Homemade dives even deeper, offering a more intentional look into the influences and experiences that shaped her. Her goal, she shared, was to convey comfort and tenderness through her recipes, much like her mother and grandmother had nurtured her. In that sense, this cookbook mothers its readers and is much more than a collection of recipes. Homemade is a book of stories told with authenticity and heart, carrying a powerful sense of love and nourishment through every dish, from her signature Kimchi Mac ‘n’ Cheese to the decadent yet straightforward Apple Paht Tartlets.
