The book also has a section on party tips, tools every green kitchen needs and ways to use leftovers. Newgent's straight-forward recipes and approachable and amusing language make cooking with this book easy and enjoyable.

Big Green Tips

In the fall Jackie takes out her: indoor electric grill, for healthful grilling anytime; slow cooker, for veggie chilis and farmers' market-inspired stews; and mini-fryer, to make crispy finger food for football-watching parties. See more of her tips and tricks for fall cooking.
