I like the idea behind this book: girl dinners. We’ve all made them. The dinners we make when it’s just us, or just us and friends, or maybe it’s a light dinner on a movie night. But this book calls out that “the girl dinner phenomenon is about making the easy road artful”.
Dinner might be easy but it’s still eye catching and delicious, there aren’t a ton of ingredients either.
Right off the bat I love the concept and all the pictures.
I also feel like the recipes are as promised. Some are super easy and barely cooking, others are a bit more prep, but everything is pretty.
I have saved these recipes to make:
Bougie AF (a pasta dish)
California Love (avocado tuna salad)
Bonanza (rice bowl)
Even I’m impressed (Mexican)
Summertime sadness (pasta dish)
Spa night (tuna)

This is a beautiful cookbook, with pictures for every recipe! I love the concept of accessible elegance that Girl Dinner conveys. It's okay to make a yummy small plate, with diverse ingredients. Like we're getting a permission slip to dial back our work in the kitchen. And for someone with disabilities, that's a welcome note to receive.
The recipes provide varying tastes and textures, spice and foods for seasons. Cozy or carefree. There's no shame in frozen veggies, boxed macaroni, or cans of delicious soup...and these chefs encourage you to use what works for you and your time/skill levels.
You will not be told to make handmade ravioli, that's just not what Girl Dinner is. It's knowing you want something yummy and fast, because you have a full life to enjoy!
I would recommend this book to young people, people with disabilities like ADHD or fatigue symptoms, foodies who don't want to spend eons, or a fortune, in the kitchen.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

To be honest, I’m kind of obsessed with this cookbook! As I’m looking through it, I see so many foods and pairings that I already enjoy and my first thought was “this is too simple!”. Then I thought about how all of my other cookbooks sit gathering dust on a shelf because I rarely have time for complicated dinners. What I really need is quick, easily attainable inspiration for meals that will tickle my senses and leave me satisfied! This book absolutely nails that formula! I will definitely be buying the hardcover when it comes out!
Thank you to NetGalley for the advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
