Description

Smorgasbowl isn't only a fun word to say, it's a fun way to cook and eat! Smorgasbowls are a simple and effective way to create meals that inspire – any day of the week, for meals for one, special breakfasts, and family dinners to entertaining big crowds. When stuck in an uninspired food rut or accommodating food allergies, creating smorgasbowls will free you.

Using bowls, sauces, toppings, interesting cooking methods and even leftovers you will learn to create delicious and exciting meals using Caryn’s four pillars of bowl building: Taste/Flavour (e.g. spicy/salty), Nutrition (e.g. carbohydrate/protein), Texture (e.g. smooth, crunchy), Temperature (e.g. room temp, hot).

You'll be a master of unique and crave-able recipes including: Apple-Chickpea Kale Salad with Orange-Mustard-Dill Dressing, Spiced Cauliflower with Beans, Slaw and Vegan Ranch Dressing and Roasted Veggie and Millet Bowl with Anchovy-Walnut Dressing.

Your journey to the exciting and delicious world of eating smorgasbowls starts here. Caryn guides you through the building blocks and secrets to build your own amazing bowls inspired by her favourite tried and tested recipes.

A Note From the Publisher

About the author
Caryn Jeanne Carruthers was born and raised in Colorado and currently lives with her family in Austin, Texas. She’s a self-confessed food lover and artist of many mediums. Her passion for healthy eating and her love of cooking started young and flourished when faced with food allergies and sensitivities. She believes food is love and shares her recipes and creations in that spirit. Caryn authors the blog tastynfree.com where she shares her photography, recipes and thoughts on gluten free, dairy free and refined sugar free food.

Smorgasbowl is Caryn’s first book where she has enjoyed the challenge of creating the book in its entirety, including the photography, cooking, styling, recipe creation, book design and writing. Smorgasbowls are, unsurprisingly, Carryn’s primary way of eating. A few years ago, she cut grains from her diet and started eating mostly vegetables and meat. She had to rethink elements of her meals without too many carbs. Her new diet included familiar foods that had new preparations, textures and sauces. Nothing was quite melding the way she wanted on a flat plate so she dug out for beautifully crafted bowls from her cupboards. At first it wasn’t a conscious change, but she soon realised she was using a bowl for every meal and tailoring each to each member of her family (husband and two children) depending on their preferences, food allergies etc.

Fantastic cookbook! Without presenting it as such, Carruthers has created a cookbook that addresses two important needs: (1) creating healthy, delicious, and beautiful work lunches and (2) building an outstanding pantry. I was intimidated at times by some unfamiliar ingredients, but other readers, especially grain connoisseurs, would probably not be. This cookbook made me dream of a day -- probably not far off in our consumerist future -- when curated grocery bundles get marketed alongside new publications. Specialty grains and exotic spices, boxed with your book, ready to cook.

This was a fun and inventive cookbook with beautiful pictures. Made with mostly easy to find ingredients, it still managed to create new ideas for recipes that I wanted to try making. I will probably end up buying this book because it was just so fun and unique.

This veggie forward cookbook will have you diving into delicious, healthy meal bowls every meal of the day. Think eating out of a bowl is just for soup or cereal? Think again! Surrounded by picky eaters or those with dietary restrictions? No problem, Beautifully photographs, precise, well tested recipes and lots of practical advice made this cookbook a pleasure to read. The recipes fill all the requirements of great eating - taste, texture and colour with the added bonus of being super nutritious. Who couldn’t do with adding a few more vegetables into their diet? These recipes makes doing just that a pleasure not a chore. I’m dying to dive in! Excellent first cookbook Caryn! Looking forward to your next one! Highly recommend
