For readers eager to take charge in the kitchen, Dahle, founder of the online forum Peanut Blossom, serves up basic cooking know-how along with recipes for one-pot dishes. Categories include breakfast foods, soups and sandwiches, easy dinners, comfort foods, Italian foods, and “Fearless Foodies,” which challenge readers to experiment. Recipes are clearly presented, but not overly simplified, and include “Tex-Mex Sweet Potato and Sausage Skillet,” “Cajun Roll-Up Fingertip Sandwiches,” and “Cinnamon Sugar and Pecan Monkey Bread.” Dahle addresses planning meals, using kitchen tools, and maintaining an orderly cooking space.
