NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Diane Morrisey got an Instagram account to spy on her six kids. One day, on a whim, she posted a photo of a cake she'd made. Before she knew it, she had a following asking for recipes and encouragement. So began Diane's new life phase: teaching people how to pull together a meal in a cinch.

A self-taught home cook and former caterer with six grownish kids, Diane Morrisey knows what people want to eat--and what they can cook in the short window most of us have to get dinner on the table. The 100 simple recipes in You Got This! are designed to give cooks confidence and new ideas to get out of the "what to cook" rut. Designed for carnivores, pescatarians, and vegetarians, alike, they make and break the rules: they lean on what you already have on hand, and celebrate the idea that sometimes dinner isn't the whole shebang, but rather something that's dinner-ish. That's when Diane takes a package of store-bought pizza dough to make Butter Chicken Calzones.

In Diane's hands, quick cheesy numbers such as Sheet Pan Lasagna and lighter fare like Seared Salmon with Orange Avocado Salad come together in a snap. Veg-forward dishes including Roasted Cauliflower Curry and Sesame Green Beans with Crispy Tofu bring bold flavor and nourishment, while meals in bowls, such as Ginger Pork Vermicelli, have a place here, too.

With gorgeous four-color photography throughout and tips on every page, You Got This! will empower those who are new to cooking and inspire anyone stuck in a "what to cook" rut.
