Enjoy nutritious lunches such as Buffalo Chicken Chop Chop Salad or Roasty Toasty Tomato Soup with Herbed Grilled Cheese Naan . Family dinner might look like It’s a Sheet Pan Honey Mustard Chicken , Sweet Potato & Bacon Situation or Pepperoni Pizza Baked Orzo with Basil and Quick Hot Honey on a busy night, or Everyone’s Favorite Baked Chicken Tacos or Marry Me Ropa Vieja for a crowd.

And let’s not forget show-stopping desserts like Tahini Pumpkin Cake with Brown Butter Cream Cheese Frosting and outrageously good Double Strawberry Oatmeal Cream Pies (Little Debras) . Most recipes include “Make It Your Way” and “Make It Nutrient Dense” tips to customize food to your tastes. And as an added bonus, most can be made gluten-free, dairy-free, or vegan, allowing readers to tailor recipes to their own version of health.

Typically when looking at a cookbook, I feel like I will only actually make 5-10 recipes. This is an exception. Every recipe looks amazing, flavorful and packed with nutrients. I will make the majority of recipes in this book. It’s also beautiful - love the photography. Can’t wait to try it all!! Great work Monique 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

You NEED this cookbook!

I’m a long time Ambitious Kitchen fan so I preordered this cookbook months ago. It was well worth the wait!! All of the recipes look amazing. It has tons of new, yummy recipe ideas and some favorites from the blog (cinnamon rolls are a must make). If you only buy one cookbook for your kitchen, get this one!!

One of a kind!

There’s no cookbook out there like this one. What cookbook touches your heart and makes you cry in the first couple pages?! This cookbook is full of heart and the best recipes you can find. I have been making Ambitious Kitchen’s recipe for years and there are soooo many new recipes in this book I cannot wait to try. Definitely worth the money and will be a cookbook that will probably always live on my counter to keep me inspired!

This is one of the best cookbooks I’ve ever purchased. Monique has outdone herself. You can tell how much love went into this book. Tips, amazing recipes, and so much more. I’ve cooked off of her blog for a long time, but I am so excited to see where this goes for her. This has to be on the Best Sellers list. No question. Just do yourself a favor and buy NOW! It’s a good mix of healthy-ish food you can customize to your needs (which she encourages).

Bang for your buck! Packed full of new recipes.

I've been an ambitious kitchen reader for almost a decade so I already know I love her recipes. I feel like you get a huge bang for your buck with this cookbook. Many pages have more than one recipe on them. I also love is how home cook friendly her recipes are! You don't need to know any fancy Chef techniques and she definitely has a style and uses the same ingredients throughout the book, making it great for weekly meals so you're not having to buy a bunch of random ingredients that you only use for one recipe. Lastly as a gluten free household I'm able to adapt nearly every single recipe with success!

Stop stressing, start cooking!

I've been following Monique's blog for over a decade and can honestly say her recipes have NEVER failed me. I'm not a great cook by any means, so it's so reassuring to know I can rely on her recipes to turn out right, and that the time and money I've spent to make them will be worth it. Plus she offers so many alterations for dietary restrictions that I end up making her recipes for all kinds of gatherings where I know people have specific needs. Stop stressing - just buy this cookbook and make food everyone will love! Also it's worth mentioning that she has the BEST cookie recipes on the entire internet. No question.

LISTEN! Now that I have your attention, I need you to purchase this cookbook. My photo isn’t the greatest but that’s because we usually don’t use buns and because we didn’t have the ingredients for the slaw but I couldn’t resist making the “Hot Chili Basil Line Chicken Burgers w/ Bangin Sauce” although mine were made using 99% lean Ground Turkey (says it’s okay to swap) it was and is amazing!!!!! I’ve made many recipes from her and we were very pleased with her cinnamon roll recipe. I’m happy. I was very excited to use this book the day it came in (today) that I made some modifications (listed above in my review) and I couldn’t be happier. This is everything I was looking/hoping for. My main protein is chicken/turkey/vegetarian. This checks all the boxes. 💛
