“So Easy So Good is . . . just that! Kylie Sakaida’s Asian-Hawaiian background inspires her cooking, which results in uniquely delicious recipes that are so fresh and compelling, you almost want to pick up a fork and dig right into the pages for a bite! Plus, she offers up countless tips, from how to stock your kitchen for success to how to embrace meal planning to how to master mindful eating. There’s tons of helpful information packed within this book.”—Joy Bauer, MS, RDN, health and nutrition expert for NBC’s Today show and #1 New York Times bestselling author
“So Easy So Good is exactly what you will get with this cookbook. Kylie delivers recipes that are delicious and approachable for anyone looking to add more healthy options to their plate without sacrificing flavor or time. Her viral mason jar noodles are already a staple in our house, so I’m looking forward to adding more from this book.”—My Nguyen, creator of My Healthy Dish and author of Healthy, My Way
“Kylie brings her expertise as a registered dietitian to her readers through her easy and delicious recipes that balance carbs, protein, fiber, and fat without the restriction of a diet. The recipes are not only balanced but also bountiful and beautiful, to show that eating healthy doesn't have to be boring.”—Yumna Jawad, bestselling author of The Feel Good Foodie Cookbook
“Practical, accessible, and delicious: these are the words I would use to describe this book. Kylie has done an incredible job providing the right amount of easy-to-understand nutrition information without being overwhelming, and the recipes are a beautiful nod to her cultural background. Let this be your go-to guide to taking the stress out of healthy, balanced nutrition.”—Sohee Lee Carpenter, MS, CSCS, *D

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for REAL LIFE- nutritionally sound, delicious, and EASY
This is such an excellent book and it has exceeded my expectations in every way. This book is full of easy to prepare, flavorful, well balanced, nutritious and delicious recipes. I love the fact that it takes into account the fact that many of us often struggle with limited time and energy yet we still have a desire to eat nutritionally sound and delicious food. There are many recipes to choose from based on the ingredients you have or on the time and energy you can spare, but all of them deliver on the promise of EASY and GOOD. You don't need special cooking skills or tools, and it's easy to prepare several dishes quickly. Tonight, for example, I made three different recipes to get me through my long 12 hour work shift tomorrow and it took me less than 1/2 hour to complete three meals with leftovers to spare for the following day. So far I've made about eight different dishes using the cookbook and I've been impressed with every one. I've already made the cabbage salad twice! It's lovely with store bought smoked salmon.Because this book includes a lot of Asian inspired dishes, the flavor is off the charts. The five minute tofu recipe for example has sweet, salty, and spicy notes that liven up the tofu beautifully, and the cucumbers give this dish a nice crunch and freshness, while the steamed rice is comforting.To me this is the book that we all need- meaning it actually works in real life. There are great tips on how to go about planning your week in terms of food/recipe selection, time, and shopping wise, as well as how to stock your pantry to have decent food options when shopping isn't possible or time is short. Overall there isn't a ton of prep work in these recipes or a million ingredients to deal with. I love that there are also options for cooking ahead or stocking your freezer for a rainy day. She includes options and tips in each recipe for swapping ingredients, how to make ahead, how to freeze etc. which makes this book ten times more useful: It essentially teaches you how to adjust the recipes for your life and preferences, how to build yummy, healthy meals and snacks, how to balance foods that speak to your culture and heritage while adding ingredients that support your body's needs AND ALSO fits the very realistic need for convenience and ease. Well done! I'm hoping she comes out with another book, this time with variations of her famous Instagram overnight oats!
5.0 out of 5 stars Easy, Delicious, and Informative!
Absolutely love this cookbook! I came across Kylie's recipes and tips on social media a few years ago and they've been beyond helpful as someone who loves to cook but usually lacks the time or energy to do so from busy schedules. So I knew this book would make a perfect addition to my bookshelf and will no doubt see tons of use in the future.No only are the recipes themselves easy to make and delicious, but I really appreciated all the pictures and little notes/tips for modifying dishes to fit different flavor profiles or dietary restrictions. They're small details that have helped take some of the stress out of cooking! And I have to shoutout the early sections that outline Kylie's approach to health and wellness and offer a general discussion on balanced eating and nutrition. Her expertise as a dietitian shines through and, not only was it extremely informative, but it's made my goal of having a more balanced diet feel much less daunting. I've already starting thinking of how I could add (not subtract!) to other staple meals and recipes I tend to make.Overall, I cannot recommend this book enough! Whether you're interested in healthier eating, want some simple and delicious recipes on hand, or both, this cookbook would make a great addition to anyone's kitchen!
5.0 out of 5 stars Informative, Helpful, and Enjoyable!
I love this cookbook! It’s easy to follow because it’s ADHD friendly and clear to understand. It’s written genuinely and in a friendly, personal way that makes the reader feel like it’s just a friend helping you change your unbalanced diet into a balanced one. I truly enjoyed reading through the whole thing!Kylie is such a sweetheart and it comes through clearly in this cookbook. There’s so many helpful tips, recommendations, and suggestions. The nutritional information is very informative and motivating. She also answers some confusing questions about health issues out there, such as are carbs really a bad thing? Is raw milk healthy? Do I need to detox?I specifically love the snack combo suggestion table! I also love that this cookbook has a lot of Asian inspired recipes because I love those flavour profiles. I’d say it’s about 50% Asian inspired, which I like because I also enjoy other flavour profiles. I’m so excited to try everything!EDIT: So far I have tried the Italian One-Pot Chicken Pasta, the Gnocchi With Chicken Sausage & Peppers, and the Dumpling Soup. All three were delicious! They all took me about 15-30 minutes longer to make than the recipes call for, but I think I’m just slow in the kitchen. I’m definitely adding these recipes to my usual dinner rotation, and I’m also going to keep trying more recipes!EDIT 2: My only complaint about this cookbook is that the estimated time it takes to complete a recipe is mostly just for the cook time, so it takes even longer because you need to prep everything as well as cook. So that’s disappointing because I was excited at the idea of 30ish minute recipes. But I still enjoy the cookbook.
Excelente recurso!
Yo no soy mucho de cocinar (no porque no me guste en sí, sino porque odio tardar horas, ensuciar todo y todo para comer en 10 minutos), pero sigo a la autora en TikTok y sus recetas siempre me han parecido sencillas, por lo que me animé a comprar el libro y no estoy decepcionada. Ya hice tres y, en efecto, fue súper fácil y sin mucho traste que andar lavando.La información extra que viene sobre nutrientes me parece buena y fácil de entender. A diferencia de muchos otros recetarios de autores de EEUU, los ingredientes de estas recetas son fáciles de conseguir en México, salvo uno que otro que la misma autora te da ejemplos de con qué sustituir si gustas. Incluso los que son más estrictamente asiáticos se consiguen, si no en el pasillo de importados del super, sí en supercitos asiáticos (lo más "especializado" que vi tal vez será el gochujang).Yo estoy muy contenta con mi recetario, pero sí les advertiría a los que no gustan mucho de sabores asiáticos pues la mayoría de las recetas toman su inspiración de la región.
Cooking made easy, delicious, and inspired!
I absolutely adore this book—it’s everything I could have hoped for in a cookbook, and so much more!It’s beautifully organized around different moments of the day, from comforting breakfasts to satisfying lunches and dinners—and even snacks, which was such a fun surprise! No matter what time it is, I find myself reaching for this book.The design is stunning. The high-quality photos are inspiring, the recipes are easy to follow, and the thoughtful symbols for gluten-free, dairy-free, or nut-free options are super helpful. As someone who needs to eat gluten-free, I love how flexible the recipes are—I can easily adapt them to suit my needs and still enjoy every bite.The attention to detail is incredible. The book lays flat on the counter, which makes it so practical while cooking or baking. I especially appreciate the “recipe remix” notes and tips—they open up even more possibilities and hidden gems within each recipe.So far, I’ve made everything from build-a-bowls and soup jars to breakfast cookies, and I’ve loved every dish. Each recipe is thoughtfully balanced with protein, carbs, fiber, and more—creating meals that are not only nutritious but absolutely delicious. If anything, the flavors are even better than expected!I also found the educational section at the beginning really valuable. I learned so much about nutrition that I hadn’t known before.Another thing I love is the variety—it’s not just a pasta book or a one-note cookbook. There’s a great mix of cuisines, with Asian-inspired dishes on one page and more Western-style meals on the next. The balance between vegetarian and meat options is also great, and the recipes are easy to customize to personal preferences.Overall, this is my dream cookbook—one I truly cherish. I can’t wait to try more recipes and play with different variations. Thank you, Kylie, for creating such a thoughtful, inspiring, and delicious collection!
Underwhelming
I love her content on YouTube but honestly this was not what I expected especially for the price. A lot of the meals are underwhelming and not of much use for me. I get better tips on her free YouTube channel, rushed product.
Great help!
I've been really enjoying it. Even though I might not have all the ingredients all the time, if I have most of them, I'll try to make something similar and it has been really helpful to get more healthy and tasty dishes.Some of the sauces for one recipe work fantastically with other ingredients too, giving new life to different dishes.And what I loved most was the first part of the book actually, where she tackles down myths and helps us divide our plate and shop. So important and helpful <3- the book arrived fast and in good condition too
Simple, tasty, sensible, kind. 5 stars!
As a busy person with ADHD, I love that this book genuinely has really simple recipes, made to be tasty and healthy without using up a million pots or needing too much prep time. As a doctor, I love all the extra information debunking common food myths and giving people practical, useful and tailorable tips on how to eat well without breaking the budget or going crazy. As someone who loves Asian flavours, I love the vibes of the recipes!Caveat: do not go into this book expecting something fancy or revolutionary, especially if you're a seasoned chef or enjoy cooking huge feasts. This is a fantastic book for someone who wants to eat better but struggles to do it in a simple, sustainable way.It knows what it is and it does its job to perfection. Kylie, thank you so much, I will definitely be making these recipes over and over again!
