Caesar salad

Some lucky food bloggers are seeing their online blogs and recipes become real-life cookbooks.

Pam Anderson took the opposite route. See, Pam is actually a very, very accomplished recipe developer and cookbook author—starting her career as the Executive Editor of Cook’s Illustrated magazine, yeah, you know, THAT one!—and is a New York Times best-selling author of six cookbooks, is a Julia Child Award winner for her cookbook The Perfect Recipe, and is now adding even more prestige to her resumé with the release of the James Beard-nominated How to Cook Without a Book.

Obviously this talented lady knows how to talk food, which she does with her two lovely and driven daughters, Maggy and Sharon, at the popular food blog ThreeManyCooks.

Cook Without a Book was originally intended to be titled ‘Meatless Mondays’ with the purpose of drawing carnivores to the idea that going sans-meat once a week is an easy adjustment in prep and happiness for the palate.

Pam professes that she is not a full-time vegetarian but states, “Once you go this direction, you realize it really isn’t that hard, and is fully satisfying.” Her reason for writing the book? “I wanted to show people you don’t have to change your pantry that much, this cookbook is meant for mainstream America.”
