March 2020 EYB Cookbook Club Summary

We have a helpful community here at Eat Your Books that has flowed into our Eat Your Books Cookbook Club where we share our successes and fails in cooking and baking from specific cookbook titles.

This month we’ve been cooking from the following titles:

• Main Selection: Half Baked Harvest Cookbook: Recipes from My Barn in the Mountains or Half Baked Harvest Super Simple: More Than 125 Recipes for Instant, Overnight, Meal-Prepped, and Easy Comfort Foods by Tieghan Gerard
• Online Option: Any Joanne Chang online recipe or any Annabel Langbein online recipe
• Baking: Pastry Love: A Baker’s Journal of Favorite Recipes by Joanne Chang
• Plant-based: Any vegan or plant-based cookbook

For past EYB Cookbook Club summaries, #EYBCookbookClub will pull up an archive of our club’s activities. Please note our announcement document shared in the club shares all our options (including those in the past). You will find the options for April-July at the bottom of this post, as well.

In order to provide our members with multiple opportunities to participate, especially during this trying time, I have selected as many member suggestions as possible for the following four months.
