There's Always Room at the Table

From casseroles to biscuits, his recipes hit the sweet spot of nostalgia for some--and are a breath of fresh air for others.In his debut cookbook, Kaleb shares his midwestern family recipes, updated for the way we eat today: Overnight French Toast Stick CasseroleCornmeal Pancakes with Blackberry SauceRoasted Pork Tenderloin with Spiced Apricot GlazeCaesar Roasted Brussels SproutsRoasted Zucchini, Dill, and Feta DipHoney Dijon Three Bean SaladRhubarb Custard Pie BarsFrom breakfasts and main courses to side dishes and desserts, the timeless food in this cookbook will appeal to every generation. Kaleb's philosophy behind his recipes is simple: the dishes must be reminiscent of those prepared by his mom, grandmas, or even great-grandmas; the ingredients have to be readily available in his southeastern Iowa grocery stores (meaning that they'd be available for pretty much anyone else); and the end result needs to be no-nonsense and taste amazing.This delightful cookbook is a reminder that it's ok to slow down and keep it simple in the kitchen--the result with Kaleb's recipes will always be comforting, classic, and delicious.
