July 2023 EYB Cookbook Club Summary

Each month we offer at least four cooking options in our Eat Your Books Cookbook Club. This month our selections were:

• Cookbook: Tenderheart: A Book About Vegetables and Unbreakable Family Bonds by Hetty McKinnon or any Hetty McKinnon title and Milk Street Noodles: Secrets to the World’s Best Noodles, from Fettuccine Alfredo to Pad Thai to Miso Ramen by Christopher Kimball
• Baking: Any of the Baked books by Matt Lewis & Renato Poliafito
• Online: Any Hetty McKinnon recipe or any Matt Lewis recipe
• Veg Focused: Tenderheart: A Book About Vegetables and Unbreakable Family Bonds by Hetty McKinnon

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 August’s cooking options as well as our 2023 year-long options at the bottom of this post.

Starting in July, we will institute #tbt (Throw Back Thursday) posts where you can share a photo of a dish made from any of our previously covered titles. Be sure to tag the post #tbt and include the title of the book and recipe name.

Starting in September, I will put up a thread where members who contributed to the group in that particular month will again post a picture on the thread. These Members will go into a drawing to win a cookbook. I will share details about the cookbook and more the last week in each month.
