I am so excited to share Modern Freezer Meals with you!
I hope this book can turn the notion of frozen food on its head in your cooking. Despite our food culture's deification of preserving ingredients through classic methods like canning and fermenting, we've relegated the freezer to the category of TV dinners and overwrought casseroles. But the freezer can be your best meal-prepping friend, and the easiest way to always have a ready-made meal on hand. Modern Freezer Meals provides one hundred fresh recipes for frozen food—from healthy, vibrant grain bowls to proteins cooked straight from the freezer with tons of flavor still intact.
Don’t just take my word for it. Modern Freezer Meals was featured everywhere from The Today Show to publications like the Washington Post, NPR, Parade, The Splendid Table, Well + Good,
If you want to order it you can find it online anywhere from Amazon to Bookshop.
Praise for Modern Freezer Meals
“Ali is my favorite kind of cook—the one who combines flavor and practicality in equal measure, making our lives more delicious and a whole lot less complicated. If this were just a book of Ali’s recipes, that would be plenty, but her sage advice for freezing is invaluable. I’ll never bulk-freeze again! Never. Whether we’re cooking for dinner tonight or freezing for later, Ali’s got us and I’m so glad that she does.”
—Dorie Greenspan, author of Baking with Dorie and Everyday Dorie
"If there is one person that I would trust on how to make meals that not only taste good initially but also after freezing, it would be Ali Rosen. Her passion for food is transcending and is only trumped by her love for her family. In her words, ‘freezer doesn't mean forever,’ but this book sure does. It's a necessary and delicious addition to any collection!”
