Welcome to today’s episode of the Cookbook Love Podcast! I’m delighted to be joined by Jessica Merchant, the force behind the wildly popular blog How Sweet Eats and the bestselling author of Everyday Dinners, The Pretty Dish, and Seriously Delish. Jessica is a full-time recipe developer and writer known for her down-to-earth approach, vibrant flavor combinations, and deep passion for all things food.

In this episode, we dive into her newest book, Easy Everyday, and explore her tried-and-true strategies for making dinner doable, without sacrificing flavor. From her game-changing “Big 3” dinner shortcuts to her 10-Minute Meal Prep Strategy and go-to list of kitchen gear, Jessica shares how to bring ease and joy back to mealtime. She also opens up about her journey as a self-taught cook and offers valuable advice for aspiring cookbook authors looking to turn their passion into a published book.
