    Summer Favourites Cookbook

    Published: Oct 12, 2023 by Vanya Insull

    My second cookbook 'Summer Favourites' is a celebration of dining and entertaining in the warmer months. It's full of delicious recipes including dinners, BBQ, salads, baking and desserts.

    After the huge success of my first cookbook Everyday Favourites, I'm super proud of the release of my second cookbook Summer Favourites. Everyday Favourites had barely been on sale for a week when my publishers asked me to sign on for a second and third cookbook! I'm so grateful to all the loyal readers and who continue to support my work and create beautiful food from these recipes. I truly hope you enjoy cooking from this cookbook as much as I do!

    Following on from the release of the first two cookbooks I then released Everyday Comfort Food. This older sister is a celebration of cosy and hearty recipes.

    "Vanya's bestselling first book, Everyday Favourites, hit the mark with its tasty, easy and hearty family recipes. Summer Favourites offers the same relaxed, classic Kiwi recipes, but with a summery, lighter feel. And, as with all Vanya's recipes, they are absolutely delicious!

    Featuring more than 70 recipes that you will turn to again and again, Summer Favourites is destined to be one of your most well-thumbed cookbooks, with dishes to tickle the taste buds of even the fussiest of eaters.

    Whatever you're looking for - fail-safe, home-cooked recipes that get dinner on the table in a flash, impressive but simple summer recipes for the barbecue or bach, epic salad ideas, moreish desserts or Vanya's famous baking recipes - Summer Favourites has you covered."
