Eat Fresh Food: Awesome Recipes for Teen Chefs

This joyful recipe book features fresh, healthful ingredients and encourages ambitious young chefs to collaborate on such mature dishes as Grape-and-Pignoli Breakfast Cake, Crunchy Wasabi-Lime Salmon with red cabbage and sugar snaps and orange-ginger sweet potato puree. Each recipe includes colorful photographs of teens selecting and preparing the foods, emphasizing the creative potential behind cooking with diverse flavors and the importance of using a natural cornucopia of fruits and vegetables in season (the “fresh” in the title is an acronym for farmer friendly, ripe-ready, easy-exciting, sustainable and honest-healthy). A prime pick for adventurous eaters and a potential catalyst for those in a junk food rut. Ages 12–up. (Oct.)
