- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 January 2018Bought it for my girlfriend which is a Smitten Kitchen fan and loves cooking. She loved it and enjoyed this book more than the previous one as it has recipes she can use more often. The pictures are amazing and the book edition is of great quality. I have only read a few pages here and there but I like Deb style of writing with a short introduction before the recipe and sharing some of her life experiences which makes you somehow feel close to the author. I like the style of food and I will definitely borrow it sometime and try it.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 April 2018I heard so many good things about this book so decided to order my own copy. Wow - I was blown away! Deb is really good at taking comfort food to a new level - her recipes aren't over the top sweet or super unhealthy, but wholesome and easy to whip up. Highly recommend this book - the recipes are amazing!

Amazon CustomerReviewed in the United States on 14 November 20175.0 out of 5 stars My go-to cookbook for weekly meal planning
Here’s a review from someone who actually tried multiple recipes from the book.
I’ve been a reader of Smitten Kitchen for many years, although I can’t remember making a recipe from her blog. I think I wasn’t a very confident cook at the time and the kitchen I was stuck with wasn’t easy to work around. Plus I was in grad school and didn’t have the motivation to cook often so I would only admire the photos from her blog. Then one day I moved to a different city to start a new job and stocked up a nice little kitchen for myself. I started planning meals I could bring to work everyday and looked to my small collection of cookbooks for recipes. It felt like I would try a handful of recipes from a book, and maybe 1-2 recipes would be good, but then sometimes they weren’t, and then I became disinterested in the rest of the book very quickly.
So far I’ve had the complete opposite experience with Smitten Kitchen Everyday. I hadn’t visited her blog in a while and was excited to see a new release from Smitten Kitchen on Amazon. Since I passed her first book (I was under the impression there would be too many recipes using sour cream and goat cheese?), I was excited for a chance to try a Smitten Kitchen book called “Everyday”. Everyday meals? Unfussy meals? I would have new favorites? Sounds good. I almost passed this one too since I’ve been trying to keep my cookbook collection to a minimum. My first impression upon scanning the pages was skepticism. Uh, cheesy beans? Corn pizza? Tomato clam chowder? Smoked fish sandwich? Hmm…
One day there were strawberries in the fridge that were becoming overripe. What should I do with them? Oh, I know! There’s a blueberry recipe in the book. I can substitute the blueberries with strawberries. And since I didn’t have yogurt on hand, I would use buttermilk instead. I don’t have turbinado sugar and have no intention of buying it, so I will leave that out. The result was delicious, fluffy, and moist. It was my first time making muffins too, by the way. I have found that this has been a common theme in the book, in that her recipes are very flexible, but will still come out full of flavor.
Below is a list of recipes I’ve tried so far (pictures to be uploaded).
Perfect blueberry muffins
Sushi takeout cobb
Carrot salad with tahini, crisped chickpeas, and salted pistachios
Red lentil soup, dal style
Spiced carrot and pepper soup with a couscous swirl
Grandma-style chicken noodle soup
Smoky sheet pan chicken with cauliflower
Bacony baked pintos with the works
This is a personal cookbook from a food blogger, so of course there will be a short story preceding each recipe. If you enjoy reading her blog, then you will enjoy reading her cookbook. I didn’t mind at all and found it made it more fun to read and that’s one of the reason’s I collect cookbooks. The recipes were very easy to follow as I’m prepping and cooking, and include a lot of helpful notes. I believe a photo also accompanies each recipe.
I have to say I greatly appreciated the addition of metric units and weights, which is incredibly rare in American cookbooks. Although I’m American, I have no idea what a small carrot or onion looks like, and would rather not spend time debating whether a potato looks medium enough at the grocery store, nor do I have any intention of measuring 12 cups of spinach. It just makes grocery shopping easier and I can scale recipes more easily.
I was surprised by some of the negative reviews. I found them overly dramatic and ridiculous. Spoiler alert: This is not a vegetarian cookbook. This is not a 5-ingredient cookbook. This is not a 30 min or less cookbook. This is not a “cook a new recipe everyday after work” cookbook. If there’s baked potato in a recipe, it’s going to take an hour to bake them. If it’s too much work to throw a potato in the oven, then don’t make baked potatoes for breakfast on a Monday morning. If you can’t bring yourself to put an extra 5 minutes filling 10 scones, then don’t fill them.
Don’t be deterred by the negative reviews. The same people who think the recipes in the book are fussy would be too lazy to cook from recipes that have more than one sentence in a step. This book has really motivated me to cook more and expanded my cooking skills. I’m looking forward to trying more recipes from the book, including the cheesy beans and corn pizza. I think this will be my go-to cookbook for weekly meal planning for now.
Gegp2000Reviewed in France on 14 February 20185.0 out of 5 stars Excellent second book
Love, love, love this book. Have tried several recipes already and they all came out perfectly! I'm a big fan of the blog, this book is a very nice follow-up. Definitely one of my favorite and go-to books for everyday cooking.
EmilyMReviewed in Australia on 3 December 20195.0 out of 5 stars Simple and delicious
The perfect book for this season of life with small children (ages 6, 4 and 3). Delicious and simple, this is my handbook for weeknight dinners.
