EAT is the antithesis to the never-ending competition for the most elaborate, expensive, complicated, and shocking dishes showcased both on tv and social media. While you might recognize Frankie from Struggle Meals, he started his career with the goal to help people who felt overwhelmed cooking at home. For a dish to be featured in this book, it must meet three simple criteria:
1) Each dish must be easy, which means nothing takes more than 20 minutes of hands-on cooking time.
2) Each dish must be affordable, meaning there aren’t any fancy specialty ingredients, and what is used, is used fully.
3) Each dish must taste great; classic ingredient combinations play the nostalgia card that readers identify with.
