This giveaway is now closed…but keep reading because you need to check this book out!
With Thanksgiving right around the corner, one of the things I’ve been thinking about is how grateful I am for the friends that I’ve made through blogging. I have met some truly choice people in the blogging community and now have a group of dear, close friends scattered about the country. I could never have predicted that this supportive and loving network of friends would be one of the benefits (and the best one by far) of writing my blog. The lovely ladies of Three Many Cooks are most definitely a part of that amazing network. Pam Anderson, famed cookbook author, and her daughters Sharon and Maggy are talented, kind, gracious, supportive…I’m blessed to be able to call them friends!

Pam has published yet another wonderful book and I am so excited to share it with you. Cook Without a Book: Meatless Meals is a return to Pam’s theme of cooking without a book but applied to, you guessed it, meatless meals. As you know, one of the things that I am passionate about is reducing meat consumption to help the environment. Needless to say, I was super excited about Pam’s new book!
This book is great, of course! Pam provides a “master formula” for each type of food in the book, then offers options for changing up that formula. It is very inspiring and the techniques she shares not only help you make great food but give you the tools to make great food on your own without a strict recipe. It’s a fabulous guide, for seasoned and novice cooks alike! Pam has succeeded in once again writing a super approachable yet delicious cookbook. Wait, the cookbook itself isn’t delicious. But you get my drift.

And, of course, we are giving some copies away! THREE of you randomly-selected lucky people will win a copy of Cook Without a Book: Meatless Meals! As always, all you need to do is leave a comment on this post to enter for your chance to win. Comments must be submitted by Tuesday, November 29 at Midnight PT.
Pam and Maggy were in town on Sunday night to celebrate the launch of Pam’s book at a dinner with a bunch of fab food bloggers. I dragged Owen, my little trooper, up to San Francisco with me since he still wants to eat practically every two minutes. I couldn’t miss out on great food and even better company! Here I am with Pam and Maggy. I think adorable-ness runs in the Anderson family, no?

Pam may need to consider a new career…baby whisperer. She got Owen to fall asleep in her arms despite the hustle and bustle of the restauarant. And, even though this picture may say otherwise, Owen loved Maggy too. Owen was simply ready to go home by the time we took this photo!
Now get commenting and good luck on the giveaway!

Thank you for featuring this book! A friend of mine has been trying to cook with less meat and will share her recipes with me, which has made me more thoughtful of trying to eat better and being more healthy in what I prepare for my family. Plus I think it can be easy to forget how tasty vegetarian meals can be! So thank you again!

I spent 14 years as a vegetarian. After 5 years of including meat in my food plan, I’m ready to make veggies the star again. I’d love this!
What a great cookbook! I hope I win one
Yummy! Great cookbook to add to my collection…
Half of my immediate family are vegetarians and this would be a great resource to add a little more inspiration to our meals.
This is exactly the kind of book I’ve been looking for but didn’t know existed. Thanks!
My family is also looking to lower our meat consumption. This would be a fantastic cookbook to have at the ready!
We go meatless often! My son loves soyrizo with eggs and tortillas for fr dinner.

I have another of Pam’s cookbooks and LOVE it (Caesar salad dressing… yum!).
I can’t really afford to buy any cookbooks right now, but I’d love to get some more meatless ideas. This looks lovely
Thanks for sharing this cookbook! I hadn’t heard of it before, but sounds like my kind cookbook. We eat a lot of meatless meals, and I rarely follow a recipe exactly. Thanks!
