Dinner made easy.

Cooking dinner at home can be so overwhelming! The grocery shopping, the time, the planning, the expenses and the cooking, it can feel like a chore.

This is why I wrote A Month of Dinner, to help make dinner easier for the everyday cook. I want to help you cook at home more by saving you time, money and sanity!

A Month of Dinner is more than a collection of recipes and pre-made grocery lists, it's a tool in your kitchen to help make dinner approachable, affordable and delicious.

AMOD is more than just a cookbook

  • 4 weeks of dinner and dessert recipes per volume.
  • Pre-made weekly grocery lists that are budget-friendly and use ingredients you can find at any grocery store, no matter if you shop at Walmart or Whole Foods.
  • A “Pantry Staples” list of essentials to help you have a well-stocked pantry.
  • Weekly “Plan Ahead” tips to make the cooking throughout the week easier.
  • Coordinated ingredients to save you money.
  • Recipes that are easy to adapt for gluten-free and/or dairy-free needs.
