Amy Chaplin is the author of At Home in the Whole Food
Kitchen, an IACP and James Beard Award-winning book that
celebrates the art of healthy eating. Her approach to food is
inspired by nature and the healing benefits of whole food
ingredients and has been driven, in part, by her rural upbringing
in Northern New South Wales, Australia; her experiences cooking in
different cities around the world; and her position as the former
executive chef at New York's renowned vegan restaurant Angelica
Kitchen. Chaplin is a teacher, consultant, recipe developer, and
personal chef. Her recipes have been featured in the Wall Street
Journal, the Washington Post, Vogue, the
Guardian, and Martha Stewart Living, among other
publications. Chaplin divides her time between Brooklyn and upstate
New York. Find her on Instagram @amychaplin.
Named one of the Best New Cookbooks for Fall 2019 by Bon Appetit, Chowhound, Epicurious, Modern Farmer, Mind Body Green, and more
"There's no shortage of vegetarian cookbooks out there, but it's
rare that I find one that inspires me page after page as much as
Amy Chaplin's Whole Food Cooking Every Day. . . . And since
most of the recipes in the book are designed to keep for five days
or longer, you can mix and match a few recipes to make a week's
worth of healthy meals, even on a busy schedule."
--Bon Appetit "Gorgeous. . . . This is food that makes you
feel invincible."
--New York Times Book Review "A treasure trove of healthy
nourishment."
--Forbes "[This] book recently garnered a 2020 James Beard
Foundation award in the vegetable-focused cooking category, but for
me, this tome is also a winner for COVID-style cooking. . . .
Minimalist, straightforward, and replete with whole foods."
--Atlanta Journal-Constitution "Some cookbook authors have earned
my complete trust, and Amy Chaplin is one of them. I've never made
a thing I didn't love from her stunning first book. . . . [Her]
latest, Whole Food Cooking Every Day, starts with the same
philosophy as her first -- that cooking with ingredients as close
to their natural state as possible can be inspiring and nourishing.
But this time, she sets out to make the prospect even more
accessible, using base recipes for pastas, soups, nut butters,
sauces, beans, muffins and more, and then expanding each with
multiple variations."
--Washington Post "For anyone looking to add more plants to their
plate, this cookbook by James Beard award-winner Amy Chaplin is a
must."
--Epicurious "This cookbook highlights [whole foods] in
master recipes that can then be transformed into multiple
satisfying meals throughout the week so it's actually easy to stick
to your best intentions (without sacrificing any flavor)."
--Chowhound "This is less a cookbook than an encyclopedia of
healthy food. . . . It's a book of recipes, but it's also a book
about how to cook and eat in a healthful way, making it a must-have
for anyone looking to make over their mealtimes."
--Mind Body Green "Gorgeous. . . . Every time I flip through
it for ideas, I feel like I spent a day at the spa."
--Cup of Jo "Nicely illustrated with close-up color
photographs, this book encourages cooks to try new ingredients and
techniques to make healthier food."
--Library Journal "In the realm of healthy cooking, Chaplin
has made a name for herself for her comprehensive approach to whole
foods, gluten-free fare, vegetarian dishes, and vegan options.
Here, she offers the home cook more instruction on how to achieve
delicious foods within healthy parameters."
--Booklist "If you're looking for a book to guide and inspire
beautiful, nutrition-packed meals, Whole Food Cooking Every
Day is it. An incredible resource filled with meal-planning
ideas, compelling photos, and everything I want to cook right
now."
--Heidi Swanson, author of Super Natural Every Day "Amy
Chaplin's new book is appealing on every level. The recipes are
simple and down-to-earth, healthful yet mouthwatering. This is real
food."

of flavor, and lighten up your meals with color and texture."

stunning selection of Amy's key recipes. Colorful, informative, and
simply brilliant, it unveils how easy and fabulous whole food
cooking can be every day!"
--David Frenkiel and Luise Vindahl, Green Kitchen
