Oh boy, this is quite fun to see my cookbook that I’ve been working on for almost 2 years come to life this week! Today is the official release date which means you can purchase it in various stores and order it online at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Books A Million.
For those of you who pre-ordered the book on Amazon, you have received it already. It has been so much fun seeing Instagram photos of you receiving the book in the mail, makes me smile
Thank you so much for sharing your pictures!
I’ll never forget the months while I was cooking and baking recipes like a mad woman preparing for the book back in 2010/early 2011. I was in a tiny Newport Beach kitchen and ingredients were flying everywhere, lol! It was fun, exhausting and exciting all at the same time. I remember thinking, I can’t believe I am going to have my own cookbook. Now, it’s really here! All of that sweat and hard work has paid off and I finally get to share those recipes I’ve kept secret for so long
Another highlight for me through this journey was watching Matt Armendariz and Adam Pearson photograph and style my cookbook. They are so unbelievably talented and made my recipes look just as incredible as they taste. I won’t ever forget being able to watch them in action.
I feel so grateful to work with an amazing agent and team at Wiley, they have made this experience so special.
I hope you will all enjoy my book, the recipes were made with lots of love and I assure you they are incredible!! There are over 100 new recipes you can’t find on Picky Palate
Enjoy!!
Here’s a sneek peek at my Skillet Baked Mac and Cheese recipe!

I have written a cookbook for my grown girls (5 of them) and will also give it to my son (he’s only 15 now) when he leaves home. It has favorite family recipes, family traditions, goofy sayings, etc. I love your site, and hope to have a chance to win your cookbook.

I’m not sure I have the patience to write a cookbook, but if I did it would be one that focused on cooking for smaller numbers. I usually only cook for myself, and while I can usually halve recipes easily, I would love to have a resource for making smaller meals and I figure I can’t be the only one!

I’d like to make a cook book all about catering for larger sized groups (say 40-60) for cheap. Classic family recipes reinvented for a larger scale.
I wouldn’t write a cookbook because I never make up my own recipes! I always follow recipes to the T!
I would love to some day! I would include Hamburger Gravy… most simple thing ever. Brown the hamburger (and onions and garlic), add flour and milk to thicken, salt and pepper and kitchen bouquet for color… serve over mashed potatoes!
