HOW IT WORKS

You don’t write this book. The people who love you do.

From the first “send me your recipe” to the hardcover on your counter. Here’s the whole thing.

STEP 01

Gather the recipes. Three ways.

Pick whichever way fits. No app, no account for your people. They send a recipe in about five minutes, from their phone.

Add them yourselfShare a linkInvite captains

Collect Recipes

Send this link to everyone who should be in the book.

They submit a recipe. We design and print the book. That’s it.

STEP 02

Just take a picture of the recipe.

No retyping, no forms. Snap the handwritten card, coffee stains and all, and we turn it into clean text and a designed page. Or type it, if you'd rather.

should stay in your life.

Not just on the big days. In the ordinary ones too.

That’s what a kitchen is for.

THE MAGIC

We make a real, professional cookbook.

You send words: a text, a photo of grandma’s card. We design the page and create the photo of the dish, made for that exact recipe. Nobody has to cook anything for the camera.

What they send

Recipe title

A Creamy Orzo Bake

Ingredients

1 lb of orzo, 32 oz of broth (I like chicken), garlic and herb Boursin and parmesan, sun-dried tomatoes, protein of choice (chicken, Italian sausage, or chicken sausage), spinach (more than you’d think), as much garlic as you’d like, seasonings (oregano, red pepper, salt, pepper)

Notes

I’m so grateful to share a signature recipe with you both. I hope it brings you warmth and comfort. Love you guys!

Steps

In an oven-safe dish (Le Creuset for clout), place Boursin in the middle of the dish. Add orzo, sun-dried tomatoes (including its oil), and seasonings around the cheese. Pour in all the broth. Cover and bake at 425°F for about 30 minutes. Cook the protein of your choosing; pan-fried or baking is great. Remove from oven and mix the Boursin into the cooked rice. Add spinach and parmesan to thicken. Simmer on the stovetop to thicken. Bone apple tea!

A Cookbook Specialist reads every book before it prints.

A real person, your Cookbook Specialist, reads every recipe, checks that each photo actually looks like the dish, and goes through the whole book, page by page.

  • Reads every recipe, start to finish
  • Checks each photo against the dish it belongs to
  • Reviews the full layout before it goes to print
