Hey friends, exciting news! We wrote a new cookbook! Love & Lemons Pop of Flavor comes out on October 13, and it’s now available for pre-order.

As a thank you for your support, we’re offering a few pre-order bonuses. You’ll get early access to a meal planning tool and shopping list generator on our website plus a set of exclusive recipes if you pre-order before the book comes out. Keep reading to learn more!

What’s Pop of Flavor about?

Pop of Flavor is a celebration of cravings. Instead of organizing it into chapters by meal type, the chapters are broken up by texture and flavor so that you can cook what you crave:

1. Saucy
2. Spicy
3. Crunchy
4. Herby
5. Tangy
6. Sweet

I started working on this book when my son Ollie was about 2 years old. I’m sure many of you can relate—it was a time when it felt hard to get dinner on the table every night. Mealtimes were loud and messy, and I lost my kitchen spark for a while.

Flavor-boosting components helped me get it back—punchy sauces, crunchy seed and nut mixes, ALL the fresh herbs, tangy pickles… I started keeping a few of them on hand at all times, and it became easier for me to turn super simple meals into something exciting…something I craved.

This book is built around my go-to components. Some are store-bought (like chili crisp and capers) and some are homemade (like Red Pepper Tahini Sauce and Spicy Turmeric Paste). ALL of them will add a delicious pop of flavor to whatever you’re cooking. I share 3 full recipes that use each component, plus tons of no-recipe ideas for incorporating it into easy meals.

The goal: To make it easy to cook meals you crave!

What’s inside?

• Over 120 vegetarian recipes, including salads, soups, drinks, and desserts…but mostly dinners! Many recipes are completely vegan or include a vegan option.
• Mix & match charts for quick cooking inspiration. I can’t write a book without them! This one has a Guide to Green Sauces, Mix & Match Crunchy Veggie Slaws, and more!
• Hundreds of no-recipe recipe ideas. Got a little bit of sauce or a handful of fresh herbs left in the fridge? This book will help you find a way to use it up!

Some of our favorite recipes…

• Saucy Skillet Chickpeas with Red Pepper Tahini
• Sheet Pan Quesadillas with Green Citrus Serrano Sauce
• Crispy Cauliflower Sandwiches with Lemon Caper Mayo
• Instant Curry Noodle Soup with Spicy Turmeric Paste
• Baked Sweet Potato Ricotta Pasta with Sage
• Broccoli Sheet Pan Caesar with Caper Caesar-ish Dressing
• Fennel Parmesan (think-eggplant parmesan) with Lemon Za’atar Breadcrumbs
• and so many more!

You’ll love this book if you…

• Are always looking for dinner ideas. There are so many good ones in this book!
• Have trouble cooking flavor-packed meals at home. Move over, boring weeknight dinners! This book is full of simple, exciting recipes to punch up your meal rotation. They make cooking feel fun.
