About Weeknights with Alice:

Following the runaway success of In Praise of Veg and Salad for Days, Alice Zaslavsky returns with a curated collection of 80 quick, clever veg-forward dinners, each designed to make dinner feel like a breeze, not a squeeze.

With her trademark warmth, Alice shows you how to build satisfying meals from the vegetable crisper up, using a streamlined pantry and zero fuss. These are recipes you'll come back to until you have them on autopilot.

Organised by colour of vegetable, this flexi-format kitchen companion is built to be flipped through, scribbled in and cooked from night after night.
