There is nothing in the book that would require the reader to be a chef or have to do something complicated, this book is simply for people who want to cook more at home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"indo-ebe0ecc6_root indo-ebe0ecc6_paragraph indo-300db776_none indo-91174671_primary indo-1d70522a_marginbottom5 indo-1d70522a_margintop0 indo-b48c4984_inherit\" style=\"color:var(--color-primary-80)\">You can listen to the full episode here or wherever you get your podcasts.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"How do you make less processed and family friendly food without spending too much on cooking?
