Welcome to BigGreenCookbook.com

My newest book, Big Green Cookbook: Hundreds of Planet-pleasing Recipes and Tips for a Luscious, Low-carbon Lifestyle (Wiley) has arrived. This site is its companion. The book and my work on green cooking inspired this site. I’ll feature material from the book but also new information, tips, recipe photos, and ideas to help you join in on the community of practical, money saving, eco-friendly cooking.

Big Green Cookbook is the first comprehensive, climate-conscious cookbook, ideal for both culinary novices and experienced cooks. That includes you! In case you’re wondering, my book is called “big” because I have lots to share. So between the book and this site, I hope you’ll find all of the clever, environmentally-conscious cooking guidance you need to begin or continue your own luscious, low-carbon cooking journey.

"I’m thrilled to have this opportunity to share my earth-friendly tastes and tips with you!"
