Are you looking to lower your carbon footprint and save money as well as the planet by creating less food waste？ The average American household throws out almost a third of the food it buys—that’s $3，000 annually right into the trash can。 The Everlasting Meal Cookbook has a multitude of ideas to use up food scraps and leftovers to create exciting new meals。I spend a lot of time googling recipes to use up my leftover food。 However， this book has many ideas I had never seen before but want to try。 Are you looking to lower your carbon footprint and save money as well as the planet by creating less food waste？ The average American household throws out almost a third of the food it buys—that’s $3，000 annually right into the trash can。 The Everlasting Meal Cookbook has a multitude of ideas to use up food scraps and leftovers to create exciting new meals。I spend a lot of time googling recipes to use up my leftover food。 However， this book has many ideas I had never seen before but want to try。 Most of us have heard about saving vegetable peelings in the freezer to make broth later。 However， how about making a salad by frying leftover rice with Cheetos and eggs as a topper？ Or creating wafer cookies with oats and stale popcorn？ There is an entire chapter devoted to making sauces with empty condiment jars！ The book also includes hints about how to reheat items that are traditionally just tossed， like poached eggs and French toast， when their first usage is complete。While labeled a cookbook， the book is organized more as an idea generator。 There are no illustrations or nutritional information here。 Few of the recipes have step-by-step instructions so a certain level of cooking skill is necessary to get the most out of its ideas。 What is nice is that the recipes are organized by ingredient。 So， for example， all the leftover rice recipes are together making it easy to find what you need。Overall， The Everlasting Meal Cookbook is a great cost-effective way to feel better about yourself while also saving the planet。 That’s a true win-win。 5 stars and a favorite。Thanks to Scribner and NetGalley for a digital review copy of the book。 。。。more

This is a great cookbook to use up every kind of a leftover。 It's organized alphabetically and makes it easy to flip through so you can find a use for all types of unused food。 It's a book for people who love to read cookbooks and a smart book to save money and even a book to curl up with。 It's perfect for solo meals or for feeding the whole family。 Food waste is a serious issue today。 Nearly forty percent of the food we buy gets tossed out。 Tamara offers more than 3，500 easy and creative ideas This is a great cookbook to use up every kind of a leftover。 It's organized alphabetically and makes it easy to flip through so you can find a use for all types of unused food。 It's a book for people who love to read cookbooks and a smart book to save money and even a book to curl up with。 It's perfect for solo meals or for feeding the whole family。 Food waste is a serious issue today。 Nearly forty percent of the food we buy gets tossed out。 Tamara offers more than 3，500 easy and creative ideas to use up nearly every kind of leftover。 I loved reading this cookbook and gaining new ideas。 Thanks to Scribner and NetGalley for a copy for an honest review。 。。。more

I was given an advanced egalley of this book thanks to Netgalley and the publisher。 What drew me to this book was that I had read Tamar Adler's earlier book The Everlasting Meal。 I've had it on my bookshelf for years and admired her thoroughness。 Flipping through this book on my kindle I loved the chapter titles "How to be Renewed"， "How to Grow Old"， etc。 This book is a great reference to how to use up the random odds and ends。 Carrot tops？ She's got a recipe for that！ Left over french fries？ T I was given an advanced egalley of this book thanks to Netgalley and the publisher。 What drew me to this book was that I had read Tamar Adler's earlier book The Everlasting Meal。 I've had it on my bookshelf for years and admired her thoroughness。 Flipping through this book on my kindle I loved the chapter titles "How to be Renewed"， "How to Grow Old"， etc。 This book is a great reference to how to use up the random odds and ends。 Carrot tops？ She's got a recipe for that！ Left over french fries？ There are two options！ It didn't take me long before I realized that this was a book I was going to need in hand on my cookbook shelf。 We often eat three meals at home as a family and my husband loves to use our leftovers creatively。 I immediately pre-ordered and I can't wait to gift it to him for Father's Day。 。。。more

This is a cookbook for specific people。 People who love to read cookbooks， people who are always looking for a new or creative way of not wasting anything， and people who want to learn many basics about food。 I loved it。 It has none of my essential decision-making points for buying a new cookbook anymore。 I’m sort of a picture nut， like to see a final pic of the outcome。 But… I loved it。 I loved it for the author’s knowledge of food and of technique。 Many ideas were things I might have thought o This is a cookbook for specific people。 People who love to read cookbooks， people who are always looking for a new or creative way of not wasting anything， and people who want to learn many basics about food。 I loved it。 It has none of my essential decision-making points for buying a new cookbook anymore。 I’m sort of a picture nut， like to see a final pic of the outcome。 But… I loved it。 I loved it for the author’s knowledge of food and of technique。 Many ideas were things I might have thought of once upon a time but never carried through。 Do not get the idea that this is a book full of new recipes。 It is not。 It’s an interesting， almost historic read。 Many recipes are somewhat like those my mother taught me。 Recipes handed down from her own mother and grandmother during a time when not even a scrap of anything was wasted， the Depression。It’s a smart book。 A way to save money and very practical， even a book to curl up with。 A reference book in some ways。 A good addition to my collection。 。。。more

This could also be titled the no waste campaign。 The author has a way to use， basically， everything so nothing goes to waste。 It’s pretty remarkable。 We aren’t big leftover people so this book was an eye opener for me。 I definitely will be using some of the ideas。

When Alice Waters and Samin Nosrat blurb a cookbook， you pick up the cookbook —- and I’m so glad I did！！ What a gem。 Not only is this a guidebook of recipes for utilizing leftovers and foraged ingredients， it’s also a resource for things like how much zest can you probably get from a lemon or how much is a medium stalk of celery - 1/2 cup。 How WONDERFUL for shopping planning to not waste！ This will be a trusted source in my kitchen and a PERFECT gift for anyone。 Fabulous！ Thanks to Simon and Sch When Alice Waters and Samin Nosrat blurb a cookbook， you pick up the cookbook —- and I’m so glad I did！！ What a gem。 Not only is this a guidebook of recipes for utilizing leftovers and foraged ingredients， it’s also a resource for things like how much zest can you probably get from a lemon or how much is a medium stalk of celery - 1/2 cup。 How WONDERFUL for shopping planning to not waste！ This will be a trusted source in my kitchen and a PERFECT gift for anyone。 Fabulous！ Thanks to Simon and Schuster for the advanced copy。 What a gift！ 。。。more

This is a fantastic cookbook that is unique in both its content and organization。 It is warm and inviting， just like the food it encourages you to use to prevent waste。 I really appreciated how loosely the recipes can be interpreted， as well as the general guidance and best practices for re-using and using up leftovers， especially produce。 Let's face it， we all have had a drawer of wilted veggies and less than appetizing looking fruit， right？ I know I do！ I also really appreciated the "this one This is a fantastic cookbook that is unique in both its content and organization。 It is warm and inviting， just like the food it encourages you to use to prevent waste。 I really appreciated how loosely the recipes can be interpreted， as well as the general guidance and best practices for re-using and using up leftovers， especially produce。 Let's face it， we all have had a drawer of wilted veggies and less than appetizing looking fruit， right？ I know I do！ I also really appreciated the "this one is tricky， just do your best" style recipes because I am a simple cook and some things are beyond my skill level。 I found this book wholly inviting， not intimidating， and gracious in every aspect--just like all my favorite cooks！ 。。。more

What a great， foundational resource for cooking and household food management！ I wish I’d had this book when I was learning to cook。 I plan to order a copy and keep it in my kitchen — I was impressed by the breadth of ingredients covered and the ideas for using all pieces of a food item or leftovers。 Thanks to NetGalley for the advance review copy; anticipated pub date March 14， 2023。

The good news is， I don’t have to write a cookbook。 The other good news is that you can buy Tamar Adler’s The Everlasting Meal Cookbook， Leftovers A to Z and have a better cookbook than I would write。 It isn’t a coffee table book filled with artfully photographed food。 It is an enormously useful cookbook that suggests uses for almost everything sitting in your fridge or pantry。As much as I love cookbooks and spend hours reading recipes， I rarely actually cook from recipes。 Tamara Adler’s suggest The good news is， I don’t have to write a cookbook。 The other good news is that you can buy Tamar Adler’s The Everlasting Meal Cookbook， Leftovers A to Z and have a better cookbook than I would write。 It isn’t a coffee table book filled with artfully photographed food。 It is an enormously useful cookbook that suggests uses for almost everything sitting in your fridge or pantry。As much as I love cookbooks and spend hours reading recipes， I rarely actually cook from recipes。 Tamara Adler’s suggestions work just fine for me。 This is the rather loose and variable way I cook。 For people who follow recipes exactly， Adler’s flexible recipes might induce some anxiety。 I still think this would be an excellent cookbook to have in the house regardless。 Who hasn’t been faced with aging， forgotten fruits and vegetables？ Adler will give you ideas for using the whole celery bunch。My housemate often exclaims in wonder at my ability to make leftovers interesting。 I usually just shrug and say I like to cook。 She pointed out one night that her late husband liked to cook too， but he hated leftovers。 So I thought about it and realized that I don’t think of food as leftovers。 I think of food as ingredients。 I even after a lifetime of making meals out of what I have on hand， The Everlasting Meal Cookbook gave me a lot of ideas about how to reduce the amount of food I throw out even more。 Now is a good time to bone up on making food stretch， and this cookbook will help。 。。。more

This is a blast to read！ I garnered many idea of ways to use leftovers。 Some sound interesting， others， well，…。 Cole slaw soup might be pushing it。 It seemed fruit， veg， grain and bean focused but all those have dairy/meat component so I would not consider this healthy。 As a licensed dietitian， I have experience and education to back up that statement。 I obtained some inspiration and plan to apply what I’ve learned here and refer back in the future。 Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for the This is a blast to read！ I garnered many idea of ways to use leftovers。 Some sound interesting， others， well，…。 Cole slaw soup might be pushing it。 It seemed fruit， veg， grain and bean focused but all those have dairy/meat component so I would not consider this healthy。 As a licensed dietitian， I have experience and education to back up that statement。 I obtained some inspiration and plan to apply what I’ve learned here and refer back in the future。 Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC 。。。more

I don't think that it is an exaggeration to say that Tamar Adler's revolutionary 2011 book of essays， An Everlasting Meal， deeply affected the way that I approached food。 Over the years， I have continued to incorporate many of the ideas that she set forth about economy， avoidance of waste， creative use of leftovers， and transformation of ingredients into my daily cooking routines。 Even today， years later， thanks to Adler， I wrap up the smallest amount of leftover salad dressing or sauce to use i I don't think that it is an exaggeration to say that Tamar Adler's revolutionary 2011 book of essays， An Everlasting Meal， deeply affected the way that I approached food。 Over the years， I have continued to incorporate many of the ideas that she set forth about economy， avoidance of waste， creative use of leftovers， and transformation of ingredients into my daily cooking routines。 Even today， years later， thanks to Adler， I wrap up the smallest amount of leftover salad dressing or sauce to use in my next meal。 Adler's philosophy， which can be described as a nod to and a riff off of MFK Fisher's "How to Cook a Wolf，" has now spread fully into the culture， but， like Alice Waters with her early emphasis on finding local， organic food， Adler was one of the first proponents of zero waste and purposeful use of ingredients that might at one time have been thoughtlessly tossed out。Now， Adler's dictionary of suggestions for cooking up leftovers or vegetables/foods past their prime， based on the ideas of her original book of essays， will soon be available。 I appreciated the chance to read an early review copy of this book， and I found many of her suggestions to be creative and clever。 Part of me wishes that Adler had published this practical guide sooner， as I would have found it most helpful in the early days of my cooking journey， when I had fewer tricks up my sleeve， and before the internet made it easy to find suggestions for using fading ingredients or leftovers。 But， certainly， better late than never。 I can imagine that this food dictionary will be a great shelf reference for cooks working towards reducing waste in their own kitchens and learning a number of essential dishes and concepts that can be tweaked to fit whatever is in the fridge。 This would be a particularly wonderful gift， paired with the original book of essays， for any person who is interested in thoughtful， purposeful eating well on a budget and honoring the food that comes into their life。Thanks to the publisher and to Netgalley for making an early review copy available in exchange for an honest account。 。。。more

What a gem of a cookbook！ Most of us know basic ways to use up leftovers but Adler takes it to a phenomenal new level。 The book is divided into sections for what type of food it is， like vegetables or meats or snacks。 There’s even a section of how to use your empty containers for best creative use of the contents still inside。 There are recipes， suggestions， you name it， with delicious basic recipes and cooking instructions for all of the ingredients too。 Clocking in at hundreds of pages， there What a gem of a cookbook！ Most of us know basic ways to use up leftovers but Adler takes it to a phenomenal new level。 The book is divided into sections for what type of food it is， like vegetables or meats or snacks。 There’s even a section of how to use your empty containers for best creative use of the contents still inside。 There are recipes， suggestions， you name it， with delicious basic recipes and cooking instructions for all of the ingredients too。 Clocking in at hundreds of pages， there is not room for nutritional information （and the mix and match nature of the recipes makes this impossible anyway） or much in the way of photos。 My ARC had gray rectangles in places where I assume photos will be but I can’t speak to their quality。 I also love that it incorporates so many foraged ingredients， from milkweed pods （a long time family favorite here） to amaranth greens to （gasp） pokeweed and more。 Highly， highly recommended。 I read a temporary digital arc of this book for review。 。。。more
