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 ๐ 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 ๐
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 ๐ Enjoy!!
Here’s a sneek peek at my Skillet Baked Mac and Cheese recipe!

Would make a book full of recipes that have undergone transformations to be healtgiryt
Congratulations on your cookbook it looks great..I would write a cookbook full of soup recipes..I love soup.
Love coming here to check out all of your yummy food. Even if I don’t make the recipies I still love looking at them and looking forward to the day I get to try some! I don’t think I could ever write a cook book – I’m more of a recipe follower than a recipe creator!
I would love to write a cookbook based on my family. We have so many recipes that have been tried for god knows how many years and are so good, but only a couple of them have been written down.
Im a fan on facebook!
I would love to write a cook book, it would probably end up being about desserts in general. I usually make dessert and wonder what on earth am I going to do for dinner???
Yes I would! I would love to list all of my family favorites!

Your cookbook is beautiful! Wanted to congratulate you.
I have a vision of our Sunday School Class writing a cookbook. One of all the different things we take when we gather for fellowships during the years.
Sincere congratulations and blessings always,

I would write an all dessert cookbook.
I would NOT like to write a cookbook, only because I feel especially gifted at finding other people’s awesome recipes and am content with that. But if I were, I would probably have it full of healthy, yet delicious meals. I find that most “healthy cookbooks”‘s recipes leave a lot to be desired as far as taste goes. Hence mine would have every recipe be awesome, obviously ;).

I would never be able to write a cookbook because I’ve never made my own recipe. That’s why I love your blog! Can’t wait to try out new recipes from your book. Congrats!!
I have made many of your dessert recipes and loved them all! Of course I would like to write a cookbook. Mine would be full of sweets, because that is what I love to bake and eat!
I love to cook, but cannot come up with a recipe on my own to save my life! My cookbook would have to consist of recipes I have follwed and just tweeked to my liking ๐
Congrats! I’m not sure I’d write a cookbook, but I’d love to write a kid’s crafts book!
Must try the Skillet Baked Mac and Cheese recipe! I would like to write a cookbook with recipes for large families or crowds. I cook for seven and frequently find myself making salads and desserts for fifty or more, or hot chocolate for the whole marching band! I can’t even imagine testing for that book!
Congrats, Jenny! I would love to write a cookbook! I have so many family recipes I’d love to share – from savory meals to sweet desserts!
Who won?
I recently tried the lemon pound cake recipe from Starbucks and it was amazing! Its my boyfriends favorite and it tastes exactly like it, maybe even better lol. So moist and lemony with a slight tang to the icing, absolutely love <3
I had put your cookbook on my birthday wishlist and just received it yesterday. I am SOOOOO excited! Everything looks delicious, I can’t wait to try all the recipes! I can honestly say that I want to cook my way through the entire book ๐
I also need to actually follow a recipe when cooking/baking so coming up with my own recipes for a cookbook would be tough.
I get your emails.
I’m very good at following recipes, but not at all good at making up my own, so I would have to say that writing a cookbook wouldn’t be for me. On the other hand, I LOVE collecting cookbook and your book looks amazing! Congratulations!!!
I do believe I follow you on FB too.
I love assembling my favorite recipes but I don’t think I’d ever be interested in actually publishing a cookbook of my own. I don’t really have original ideas – I just have favorites from others, if that makes any sense ya know? If I did, it’d probably be a good balance of main dishes and yummy desserts – an all around cookbook. ๐
I subscribe too!

I would write a cookbook of either cookies or soups.
I have never thought about writing a cookbook but I’d have to go with healthified versions of everything my mother makes… you know the recipes her mother made and traditional Portuguese recipes. Not that their terribly unhealthy – but they could use some sprucing up.
I would love to write a cookbook of just home style comfort food.
All good things that make you feel warm and fuzzy!

If I were to write a cookbook it would be a Christmas Cookies Club cookbook. This would be easy we have been doing it for many many years and everyone always finds a new cookie each year. And there are twelve of us. The humor alone during our cookie exchange would be entertaining in itself. The book could not be written without the night of exchanging. We are a crazy group of women. But Thank You for writing your cookbook, even if I don’t win one I will be getting it for myself.
I don’t think I could write a cookbook, but I am addicted to reading them.
Ah—so excited for you and your book! I love your website and recipes! I would love to one day write a cookbook filled with yummy, guiltless, easy-to-make dinners, as well as sweet-tooth-satisfying desserts! Is that too much to ask? haha ๐
Congratulations on your cookbook (and your 3rd son too!). Years ago, friends and family suggested I write a cookbook … but I never really got into it. And now I’m sure I wouldn’t have the energy or time … just keeping up is enough for me. Now I’m more into ‘healthy’ cooking/baking. Look forward to looking at your book.

Congratulations. Although it must be very exciting to write a cookbook, I’m not sure I would want to do it. I do better with following recipes than making them up. Thanks!

Congratulations on your cookbook publication – the cover looks lovely. I’m from the Maritimes and would love to make a cookbook with a collection of old recipes that were found in hadwritten cookbooks from this area.
I would write a cookbook of my father’s recipes. He was an excellent cook, people loved that he cooked for them, he was always giving away food items he had made. I would love to once again sit down to a table where my father had prepared dinner for me…to honor his memory I do plan to write a cookbook of his recipes when I retire.

Congratulations on so many exciting life events lately! Your book has been on my wish list since it was announced. I can’t wait to get my hands on a copy. I do think writing a cookbook would be fun, although, taste testing all the recipes is the part I’m sure I’d enjoy the most. Congrats again!
I would love to write a cookbook! Comfort foods!!!!! Yummm!!!!!
My cookbook would consist of husband-approved vegetarian dishes!

my sisters and I “made” a cookbook for our mom for Christmas last year – it has all of our family favorites. My mom loved it so much, she bought a copy for each of us. We love to bond in the kitchen when we are together, and when we aren’t together, the cook book makes the distance seem not so far.
Love your blog… the recipes I’ve tried always get rave reviews from everyone with whom I share them. Congrats on the cook book too ๐

Me writing a cookbook is a terrifying thought (ask me how my popovers became brickovers). That said, my cookbook would be full of recipes for one or two people, with a distinct leaning towards pasta.
I would write one with east family dinners that can be done in a short amount of time with short cuts in detail.
Nope. No way. I would not write a cookbook.
