‘Nothing Fancy: Unfussy Food for Having People Over’ by Alison Roman is perfect for the hostess with the mostest.

An unexpected weeknight meal with a neighbour or a weekend dinner party - either way and everywhere in between, having people over is supposed to be fun, not stressful. This cookbook includes an abundant collection of all-new recipes—heavy on the easy-to-execute vegetables and versatile grains, paying lots of close attention to crunchy, salty snacks, and with love for all the meats. It will soon become your go-to for gatherings big and small, any day of the week.

Alison Roman will give you the food your people want - think DIY martini bar, platters of tomatoes, pots of coconut-braised chicken and chickpeas, pans of lemony turmeric tea cake - plus the tips, sass, and confidence to pull it all off.
