Announcing Coseena

Happy New Year!

I hope you enjoyed the Holidays with your friends and family and are ready to kick-start this year refreshed!

2016 was a whirlwind of a year. On top of everything that’s been happening in the world, I kept busy the latter half of the year working hard to create Coseena – today I am super excited to finally share it with you.

A few years ago I was chatting with my husband about what would actually help our friends cook more often. I was getting into a lot of conversations with them about how they never found the time to cook, yet alone shop, and often opted out in favor of take out. As much as I love cooking, I agreed with them, confirming that dinner, especially after a long days’ worth of work can be hassle unless you have the right tools, a stocked pantry, and tasty ingredients in your refrigerator, ready for every night.  

I started recording the recipes I made every week and noticed, that even though I gather and use different ingredients, I made a very similar set of recipes every week. These are more often than not, super simple and fast! I thought, if I shared this way of cooking with my friends, I could help them cook more often and eat better while enjoying the process – making dinner a daily ritual.

After several months of polishing the recipes, photographing them, and writing down all the tips and tricks I learned over the years, I created a guidebook I’m very proud of and I think you’re going to love it!

 So what the heck is Coseena?

Think of it as a how-to guidebook for winning at dinner.

Filled with tasty recipes and all the essential tools to cook better, Coseena is a new way to dinner. All of the recipes in Coseena celebrate vegetables, and sometimes they will be paired with eggs, chicken, or fish.  We will use lots of spices to make them delicious and unique. The recipes are easy to follow and made in under an hour. Easy, right?!

Coseena is broken down into two parts. In the first part, we will build a kick-ass pantry and polish basic cooking techniques, like how to cook perfect whole-grain rice and quinoa. The second part contains five weeks of recipes, each week with an easy to follow shopping list – shop once, cook five tasty dinners!

Coseena is available to pre-order on the site and will ship in just a few weeks. You can get it in three formats – as a limited edition print, a digital PDF or iBook. Snatch your copy today and let’s start cooking dinner together! (The limited edition print will come with some extra special goodies!)

I hope you are as excited as much as I am!
