Toss Your Own Salad

“Eddie comes on strong, but behind the attitude there’s an honest, stripped-down, back-to-basics approach to cooking real food.” —Amanda Cohen, author Dirt Candy: A Cookbook

Everybody knows they should be eating more vegetables. Maybe you’d actually do it, too, if vegetables weren’t so boring. As Eddie McNamara puts it, “Any schmuck can put bacon on something to make it delicious.” Now he wants to show you how easy it is to make tasty, meatless meals that won’t leave you broke, bloated, and praying for a comprehensive national health-care plan.

Eddie’s mission: to teach you how to conquer your kitchen and wean yourself off pricey delivery apps without enrolling in cooking school. That’s how his popular recipe Tumblr, “Toss Your Own Salad,” began. This meatless cookbook has over 100 recipes for decidedly unboring dishes like The Green Inferno Salad, Dr. Devash’s Shakshuka, Nihilistic Frittata, and Penne Tikka Masala. So stop wasting your money! Do it yourself! Let Eddie McNamara show you how to Toss Your Own Salad.

“Hilarious and heartwarming, this straight-talking, contemporary vegetarian cookbook is the polar opposite of lifestyle guides that rhapsodize about superfoods and microgreens.” -Library Journal
