In her bestselling cookbooks, True Comfort and True Roots, Kristin Cavallari shared nourishing and comforting recipes that encouraged fans to cook healthy meals at home. Over the years she has changed her thinking on what healthy truly means, and has embraced intuitive eating with less restrictions. In Truly Simple, she focuses on the weekday meal, with more than 140 quick and easy recipes that will lift you out of that cooking rut (126 of the recipes are gluten-free). In her most personal book yet, Cavallari shares her hard-won philosophy on cooking for kids and spending more time out of the kitchen and around the table.
These simple recipes include:
• Breakfasts: Blueberry Cinnamon Sugar-Baked Oats and Turmeric Fried Eggs with Sauteed Kale and Chili Oil
• Salads: Vegan Buffalo Cauliflower Salad and Salmon BLT Salad with Tomatillo Ranch
• Lunches: Cheesy Stuffed Poblanos and Veggie Rice Bowl with Sweet Tahini Sauce
• Dinners: Tuscan Spaghetti Squash Casserole and Panfried Chicken with Spicy Arugula and Honey Mustard
• Snacks: Gluten-Free Naan with Tzatziki Sauce and Spicy Grilled Peaches with Balsamic Glaze
• Desserts: Skillet Carrot Cake and Cold Brew Brownie Cookies

While this is her third cookbook (after True Comfort), TV personality Cavallari notes that it is the first one she has written without the help of a chef, and unfortunately, in some places it shows. A few of the recipes are confusingly written or leave out instructions for some of the listed ingredients, but otherwise, as the title indicates, they are generally straightforward and designed to be relatively quick and easy. The focus of the book is on meals Cavallari makes for herself and her family, many with an international flair, and it is organized in a standard fashion, ranging from drinks to desserts. There is, however, a rather miscellaneous chapter of "staples," which includes both chicken thighs and cream cheese frosting. Most but not all of the recipes are gluten-free or dairy-free, so alternative flours and milks are often required. There are photos, including many of the author, and each recipe includes a headnote, often referring to its family origins. VERDICT Desirable for Cavallari fans and those looking for healthy or gluten-free options. Purchase where there is interest.--Susan Hurst
