In
What’s Gaby Cooking: Everyday California Food
, Gaby shares her favorite simple and fresh recipes and offers a glimpse into what it’s like to “go coastal.” It’s about always having something tasty to eat, thanks to handy and delicious pantry staples (avocado oil! quinoa! limes! dark chocolate!), as well as an arsenal of easy and healthy recipes, like:
Chimichurri Cauliflower Rice Bowl with Grilled Fish
Taco Skillet Bake
Street Corn Pizza
Black Rice and Roasted Mushroom Bowl
Chicken Larb Bowl with Coconut Rice
Caramelized Onion, Leek, and Red Pepper Crustless Quiche
Charred Octopus Tacos
Gaby’s Famous Guacamole
Pulled Pork Pizza with Cabbage Slaw
Pesto Lasagna Bolognese
Bean, Cheese, and Chicken Tortas
And over 100 more!
The book covers all the staples—avocado toast, grain bowls, greens, carbs, healthy mains, cocktails, and more. For Gaby, California is not so much a place but a state of mind, and this cookbook proves that no matter where you live, you can still apply the same philosophy.
All it takes is finding the freshest produce you can, stocking up on some versatile pantry staples, and keeping flavors and techniques simple. After that, the only thing left to do is kick back, pour yourself a California Girl Margarita, and listen for those ocean waves.
