What’s for dinner? It’s a question we ask ourselves most nights—pressed for time or groceries, searching through the fridge for inspiration. Dinner can be a time to unwind and connect with family or friends, but for many home cooks, it can also feel like a chore. Recipe developer and cookbook author Yasmin Fahr gets it, and is here to help readers create nourishing, quick and easy meals even when real life seems to have other plans.

In *Cook Simply, Live Fully* she offers 120 recipes for taking the grind out of dinnertime, with dishes that span the range of “too tired to chop vegetables” to “up for a challenge but please make it snappy.” Yasmin’s approach is all about simplicity and flavor while keeping things nutritious and vegetable-forward.

*Cook Simply, Live Fully* is organized into three progressive sections based on energy level and mood. *Lap Dinners* includes low effort/high reward one-pan meals such as Sheet Pan Asparagus with Tomatoes, Eggs, + Feta. Readers can take things up a notch in *Coffee Table Dinners* with satisfying dishes that require a little more prep work, like Roasted Chicken Thighs with Grapes, Feta + Mint.

*At the Dinner Table* is for those days when time and energy are not at a premium, or when entertaining is on the menu, including Roasted Mustard Salmon with Hint-of-Mint Escarole Salad with a side of Blistered Olive + Asparagus Salad with Feta + Turmeric-Stained Onions (with suggested wine pairings!).
