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!

If I was to write a cookbook, it would have to be for cupcakes!
Jenny:
How exciting!!! Those pictures look amazing. And your recipes make my mouth water. If I wrote a cookbook, it would probably be all recipes featuring my two favorite things: cheese and chocolate (not necessarily together!!!).

So excited for you! I love your blog, and can’t wait to see the cookbook. If I were to write a cookbook, it would be full of family-friendly meals and desserts, kind of like what you do 🙂
I like to can, so I think I would write a canning cookbook.
I would LOVE to write a “Homey-type” cookbook, one for regular daily family life with good wholesome but everyday type meals, (food that most of us serve every night for our families & ourselves), as well as yummy everyday type fun desserts. Also, items for church potlucks, card parties, kids activities, etc. Just REGULAR good food that almost everyone enjoys and is fun to make.
Congratulations Jenny and no I would not want to write a cookbook! I know it must be a lot of hard work and I would rather leave it up to the people who have a true talent like yourself!
