Book Review: Best Served Wild
Best Served Wild is essentially a cookbook geared towards those who love and are actively participating in outdoors adventures. All of the recipes are vegetarian and geared to keep you full during your adventuring.
Pros:
The pictures are gorgeous! If they don't motivate you to get outside, then I don't know what will.
The recipes are fairly straightforward and easy to follow.
Cons:
I expected that more of these recipes would be things you could cook WHILE adventuring, but the majority of recipes were make-ahead or things you could need to cook while car-camping (i.e. with large pots and pans and refrigerated items).
As someone who cooks a lot and adventures a lot, most of these recipes were not unique to me. I can make protein bars and granola bars without much effort or need for a cookbook.
I would highly recommend this book for a beginner cook or beginner adventurer. If you are experienced, then I would pass.
I received an advanced readers copy of this book from the Netgalley program in exchange for this review.
