NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - The social media star, New York Times
columnist, and author of Dining In helps you nail dinner with unfussy
food and the permission to be imperfect.
"Enemy of the mild, champion of the bold, Ms. Roman offers recipes in
Nothing Fancy that are crunchy, cheesy, tangy, citrusy, fishy, smoky
and spicy."--Julia Moskin, The New York Times

An unexpected weeknight meal with a neighbor or a weekend dinner party
with fifteen of your closest friends--either way and everywhere in
between, having people over is supposed to be fun, not stressful. This
abundant collection of all-new recipes--heavy on the easy-to-execute
vegetables and versatile grains, paying lots of close attention to
crunchy, salty snacks, and with love for all the meats--is for
gatherings big and small, any day of the week.
Alison Roman will give you the food your people want (think DIY martini
bar, platters of tomatoes, pots of coconut-braised chicken and
chickpeas, pans of lemony turmeric tea cake) plus the tips, sass, and
confidence to pull it all off. With Nothing Fancy, any night of the
week is worth celebrating.
Praise for Nothing Fancy
"[Nothing Fancy] is full of the sort of recipes that sound so good,
one contemplates switching off any and all phones, calling in sick, and
cooking through the bulk of them."--Food52
"[Nothing Fancy] exemplifies that classic Roman approach to cooking:
well-known ingredients rearranged in interesting and compelling ways for
young home cooks who want food that looks (and photographs) as good as
it tastes."--Grub Street
