We Got Food at Home: A Real-Life Guide to Cooking Good, Spending Less & Breaking Up with DoorDash

Remember hearing, "We got food at home"? Now it's time to actually know what to do with it.

We Got Food at Home is more than a collection of recipes. It's a real-life guide for anyone who wants to cook good food, spend less money, and stop depending on takeout every time hunger hits.

Inside are 40 featured recipes in celebration of author Amber Marchell's 40th birthday, along with bonus recipes, kitchen shortcuts, money-saving ideas, and practical cooking lessons designed especially for people who may never have been taught how to cook.

Amber explains the things recipes often assume you already know - what temperature to use, what "done" actually looks like, how to season your food, what to substitute when you're missing an ingredient, and how to look at the random food already sitting in your refrigerator, freezer, or pantry and figure out what it can become.

From comfort-food favorites and homemade versions of takeout cravings to pantry meals, nostalgic treats, creative shortcuts, and an affordable birthday cake, these are recipes made for real people, real budgets, and real life.

You don't need a perfect kitchen. You don't need expensive ingredients. And you don't need to know everything before you start.

Use what you got. Buy what you can afford. Make it taste like you meant to do that.
