About the Book

As a busy mom of two, Cassy Joy Garcia, the best-selling author of Cook Once, Eat All Week, has limited time to get food on the table. With this book, she shares a fresh approach to preparing dinner in a hurry. These 120 easy, delicious recipes are designed to use the leftovers from one recipe to quickly cook a completely different meal the next day.

While most meal-prep cookbooks require you to plan your entire week ahead of time and spend hours in the kitchen (and a small fortune on groceries), Cook Once Dinner Fix shows you how to utilize the leftovers from one meal to create an entirely new creation for the next. The leftover Roasted Garlic Turkey Breast transforms into Spiced Turkey Potato Soup, and Dry-Rubbed Barbecue Brisket becomes crowd-pleasing Cheesesteak-Stuffed Peppers. No matter your favorite flavor profile or dietary restrictions, this book is packed with recipes the whole family will enjoy.

The Cook Once Dinner Fix solves the “what’s for dinner” question without requiring enormous amounts of time, energy, skill, or money. Now dinnertime can be fun, fast, affordable, and sustainable.

Frequently Asked Questions

When does it release?

September 14, 2021 (this year, baby!)⁠

Can I pre-order?

Yes! Some of the current retailers include: Barnes & Noble, Amazon, and Indie Bound.

Any vegetarian meals?

Yes! By POPULAR request, I have a whole chapter dedicated to 24 of the most fabulous vegetarian meals.⁠

Is the book gluten-free?

100% of the recipes are either already gluten-free or have *verified* substitutions. Insider tip: every photo you see in this book is gluten-free, because that’s how I eat.⁠

Are there seafood recipes?

Yes! A whole chapter. Buckle up, they’re really good.⁠

How does it compare to Cook Once Eat All Week?

Great question. I took the best parts of COEAW and combined it with your *most* requested wishes. Your top wish was for more variety, so I transformed the concept into a 2-meal “dinner series” which will give you the flexibility to fill your week with efficient dinners that sample meals from the poultry, beef, pork, seafood, or vegetarian chapters.⁠

Are there considerations for dairy-free, egg-free, grain-free, nut-free, etc.?

Of course there are! My background as a Holistic Nutritionist will forever have me going the extra mile to make sure my recipes are as inclusive (and reliable) for special dietary needs.⁠

Here’s the full breakdown:

  1. Dairy-Free Friendly: 105
  2. Egg-Free Friendly: 113
  3. Gluten-Free Friendly: 120
  4. Grain-Free Friendly: 95
  5. Low-Carb Friendly: 35
  6. Nut-Free Friendly: 120
Does this require a long meal prep over the weekend?

It does not! You get your weekends back, my friend. These dinners are designed to be served fresh, but still keep your kitchen time minimal.⁠

Will there be sides?

Oh yes, yes there will be! The 2nd most-requested update was for more complete meals. Consider it done! ⁠

Does the book require expensive or hard-to-find ingredients?

Nope! By design I wrote recipes that used widely available, affordable ingredients. I’ve even included a pricing index for you so you can pick meals that fall into specific price points!

Are there meal plans included?

Once the book comes out, you’ll be able to get 10 weeks of done-for-you meal plans for free on CookOnce.com!
