Introduction

Back in 2006, when I sat down to write my first 4 Ingredients cookbook, my goal was to create for all of you what I wanted for myself: a simple guide to making home-cooked meals for my family. What could be easier than recipes that require only four or fewer ingredients? I’m not one to brag (really!), but seven years and five books later, I have to say I’ve outdone myself. One Pot, One Bowl is a glorious collection of sweet and savory dishes full of fresh, easy-to-find ingredients—no more than four in each recipe—that require only one pot and one bowl. That means less cleanup and more time enjoying these fabulous meals with the friends and family you love.

In this book, full of gorgeous photographs by Stuart Quinn, you will find recipes for casseroles, roasts, soups and stews, pizza, pasta, pies, and desserts. Some of my personal favorites are the Creamy Bacon & Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken, the French Lamb Casserole, the Apple Crumble, and the Baked Rice Pudding. That said, everything in these pages makes my mouth water, and I know yours will, too!

It is my intention with this cookbook to help every home chef rediscover the wonders of quick, easy, and delicious home-cooked meals. I truly hope you find some inspiration and a bit of kitchen wisdom within.

Happy cooking!

Kim
