Description

Instantly claiming the #1 spot on the New York Times Bestseller list, this eagerly awaited cookbook by bestselling author and popular social media star Carleigh Bodrug guides you to save money, reduce food waste, and enjoy healthier eating habits than ever before.

Inspired by Bodrug’s incredibly popular online Scrappy Cooking series, this cookbook offers over 150 easy-to-follow vegan recipes that help readers creatively utilize food already available in their refrigerators and pantries. You’ll learn to transform often-discarded produce parts—radish tops become flavorful pesto, broccoli stems become vibrant summer rolls, and wilted greens are repurposed into nutritious smoothie cubes.

But the book doesn’t stop there—Bodrug empowers readers with flexible “Kitchen Raid Recipes” designed specifically to use up nearly any vegetable, grain, or bean you have on hand. A convenient and practical “Got This, Make That” index showcases how common leftovers or excess ingredients—like stale bread—can be easily repurposed into fresh, delicious dishes.

Scrappy Cooking goes beyond simply saving food: It teaches mindful eating that benefits the environment, your wallet, and your wellbeing. All recipes are fully plant-based, nearly free from oil, and center around nourishing whole foods, benefitting both personal and planetary health.

Explore mouthwatering recipes such as The Whole Darn Squash Pasta, Skillet Lasagna, One Pan Orzo Casserole, Vodka Penne with Broccolini, Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Roasted Red Pepper Sauce, Chickpea Pot Pie, Orange Peel Chickn’, Loaded Tortilla Bowls, Sheet Pan Tacos topped with Carrot Top Chimichurri, Rebel “Ribs,” Veggie Masala Burgers, Palak “Paneer,” savory Vegan Meaty Hand Pies, flavorful We-Got-the-Beet Chips, tangy Pickle-Mania Chips, Cornmeal Biscuits, and irresistible Bang Bang Broccoli-cious Steaks, among countless other tasty creations.
