About the Author

Joanna Gaines is the co-founder of Magnolia, a New York Times bestselling author, editor-in-chief of Magnolia Journal, and creator and co-owner of Magnolia Network.

Born in Kansas and raised in the Lone Star State, Jo graduated from Baylor University with a degree in Communications. It was an internship in New York City that prompted her desire to discover how she could create beauty for people. In a big city unknown to her, Jo always felt most at home whenever she stepped inside the cozy and thoughtfully curated boutique shops, which inspired her to open a shop of her own in Waco, Texas.

Alongside her passion for design and food, nothing inspires Jo more than time spent at home with Chip and their five kids.

Gaines, HGTV host and cofounder of Texas restaurant Magnolia Table, builds on her bestselling Magnolia Table cookbook with this solid, breezy sophomore outing. The book opens with sections devoted to foods made from scratch, such as pizza dough, gnocchi, and rosemary focaccia. Later chapters are primarily composed of popular crowd-pleasers such as Cajun shrimp sheet pan dinner, chicken Florentine, and steak tacos with Mexican crema. Other classics include arancini with marinara sauce, chicken noodle soup, and Philly cheesesteaks. Fans will be delighted to find anecdotes throughout the book (“For Chip and me, this soup always takes us back to one of our first dates,” she reminisces as she introduces creamy chicken poblano soup) as well as recipes from her Magnolia Table restaurant and Silos Baking Co. bakery, most notably zucchini bread, blueberry sweet rolls with lemon glaze, and oatmeal cream pies. Gaines also includes an in-depth guide to fresh herbs, noting their flavor profiles and common pairings, as well as a list of reliable ingredient substitutions. Given Gaines’s huge fanbase, this looks like a surefire bestseller. (Apr.)
