I love cooking, but sometimes you just want something easy. Easy tends to be less healthy, so I love when a cookbook has healthy ideas for when you just don't have time to cook and meal prep ideas for when you don't feel like cooking a lot.

As advertised, the recipes in this books are designed to be quick and easy without spending a lot of money. And they are.

The author, Bo Corley, was on a weight loss journey and rediscovering his love of cooking when he came up with the idea for this. How can you cook all types of food, but in a healthier way that won't take up too much of your time to do. There are meal prep ideas, tops on what oils you should use and what pans you should use.

The recipes come with step by step instructions with measurements in both metric and Imperial. There are tips provided and most have a full color photo. Nothing seems too difficult. The only issue I had with the book and it's a me issue is that I don't grill and many of the recipes involve grilling. Like I said, it's a me problem. I'm not deducting stars, but if you aren't a grill person, there's still a lot of great recipes and idea you can use.

Thank you to Quarto Publishing Group and NetGalley. I voluntarily read an early copy of this cookbook

4 1/2 stars, rounded to 5

I received an ARC of this cookbook from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is a fantastic cookbook. The recipes are infused with so much flavor!

This was a great cookbook! I love all of the photos to go along with the recipes. A good balance of classic recipes and new things to try! I like the "cheat codes" that are featured in some of the recipes with tips and shortcuts.

I like this recipe book. I like the introduction about how the book came about and the tips about oil/ garlic etc were helpful. The recipes are beautifully illustrated too. Thank you

'Dinner in One Take' showcases classic cooking methods in an accessible way whilst taking the chef through well-developed explainers that I personally appreciated as someone who likes to ask a lot of questions when learning a new recipe. The pictures are sharp, very well lit and colored, as well as plated. There's recipes for specific types of occasions, but also go-tos that everyone can work into their weekly meal plans, healthy or a bit more on the decadent side. Learning through the lens of Corley's distinctly light-hearted, but informative approach is really lovely and low pressure, while you still feel like you're learning quality recipes. This definitely makes me want to check out anything else Corley writes.

I love the writing and pictures in Dinner in One Take. It is mostly types of food that is heavy with meats. There are a lot of tasty sounding recipes if you are big into meats. There are some lighter food recipes and some awesome tips for when you prepare the dishes. I love how the author comes across as easy going and fun. I bet it is a blast in his kitchen!

Loved the easy to read style and the photos!

A few recipes were a little complicated for my style, but the book over is enjoyable. The tips are great, the photos are beautiful and the healthy dinners section is really enjoyable.

Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for a temporary, digital ARC in return for my review.

Weeknight-Friendly Meals That are Big on Flavor, Not Time is certainly the right title for this - the meals in this book are indeed big on flavour. Some of the recipes and methods are healthy and can be more frequently implemented, and some others are for special occasions like big gatherings, celebrations and when you want to treat yourself.
Due to the emphasis on the flavour, this is a fresh book. I have not come across many books like this one.

So many great easy to follow recipes in this cookbook. It would be great if all of the photos matched where the recipe is. Great photos that make the food look mouth watering.

I initially applied for Dinner in One Take because I have a husband and toddler as well as work which means time is of the essence.

The layout of the book was fantastic, and the pictures of the food made me crave them!

I do feel like the book could of benefitted from some healthier recipes but then the book wasn't sold on that reason so this isn't a criticism but more I want to try moreo Bo Corley's cooking with a healthier edge.

This book really looks to increase the readers knowledge and skill level without being overly complex.

I cannot wait to try some of the recipes!

This is a great cookbook with delicious recipes. There is a nice introduction with recipes for kitchen staples. The recipes, themselves, are varied and unique but approachable and not intimidating. The recipes are well-written and there are great photos that are both helpful and appealing. As a breakfast fanatic, I especially liked the breakfast for dinner section. I really liked all the tips and tricks throughout the book. I can definitely see me using this book for a lot of dinners in the future. I would recommend this book to everyone.

I really liked this cookbook, The recipes were easy to follow and not overly complicated. It had pictures of many of the dishes which I always enjoy. Chapter 3 on Healthy-ish Dinners had many dishes that are kid friendly but still on the healthy side. I like how it wasn't just recipes but in many areas there was an education to it to explain why or how you should do something which I always appreciate. Simple and fun, I would gift this for someone beginning to cook.

Dinner in One Take is a great cookbook! I loved all of the beautiful pictures that accompanied each recipe. Some of them certainly seemed a little more complicated than I would expect for simple weeknight meals... but then I like really simple lol.

That being said, there were plenty of simple recipes as well, and the instructions were clear and easy! The pictures were mouthwatering, and I am excited to try some of these. Thanks to NetGalley, Bo Corley, and Quarto Publishing for the chance to read and review. My thoughts and opinions are my own.

This is a fun cookbook full of life and personality! I wasn't familiar with Bo Corley before, but this book makes me want to seek out more of his content. Mouth watering recipes and plenty of tips and tricks to improve one's cooking skills. Only a few recipes lacked pictures. Would be a great addition to any cookbook collection!

"Dinner in One Take" is a fantastic cookbook for anyone who craves quick, delicious meals without the fuss. The book is packed with mouthwatering recipes that are perfect for busy mid-week dinners when you're short on time but still want something tasty. The recipes are simple yet creative, making it easy to find inspiration even when you're not in the mood to cook. The layout is clear and user-friendly, with beautiful photos that make you excited to get into the kitchen. It's a must-have for anyone looking to simplify their weeknight cooking.
