NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF SPRING: Forbes

Over 100 flavorful and simple recipes for every occasion and craving from one of social media's most beloved food content creators.

In her debut cookbook, content creator Erin O’Brien draws inspiration from three generations of women who taught her to create her own modern spin, with a stress-free approach to boldly flavoured food. Erin has built a thriving community of over 1.5 million followers across platforms who turn to her for delicious, manageable, and creative meals, and are eagerly awaiting this book.

Dig In! is the ultimate collection of simple and delicious recipes that cater to every craving and occasion, from comfort food classics to weeknight dinners and family meals to share and savour. In the chapter called WTF to Make for Dinner, Erin solves the age-old dilemma with effortless recipes like One-Pan Chicken Marsala & Orzo and Loaded Twice-Baked Broccoli Cheddar Potatoes. You’ll find easy bites like Mom’s Secret Salsa and shortcut Faux-caccia in App-y Hour.

The Pasta: My Love Language chapter includes Erin’s Spicy Garlic Shrimp Linguine with Crispy Panko that guests will be begging you to share the recipe for. You’ll learn that salads can be the star of the table with dishes like Summer Stone Fruit Salad with Basil Mint Vinaigrette and, of course, fan favourite Nana’s Iconic Crunchy Lemon Parm Salad.

Even Erin’s cosy soups and standout side dishes may steal the show with delightful options such as White Bean, Corn & Chicken Chili or Honey & Chile Roasted Carrots with Labneh. Lastly, you can’t forget delicious desserts, or as Erin says, the Cherry on Top of any great meal, like Key Lime Pie with Pecan Graham Cracker Crust and Loaded Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies.

In addition, there are fun and approachable (sommelier-approved!) wine pairings throughout the book, as Erin’s fans have grown to love in her posts, but for those occasions when you want to have a little more fun, her Blackberry Bourbon Smash is a must-try.

Packed with practical tips and foolproof methods, Dig In! is an essential companion for anyone hoping to elevate their home cooking and make every meal one to remember.
