You Must Eat: Using Creative Cooking to Cope When Life is Hard.

Margaret Eby's new book, 'You Gotta Eat,' helps people cook easy meals when they don't have much time or energy. The book is like a friendly guide with simple recipes and ideas for using whatever food you have.

Eby says you can make a sandwich out of almost anything, as long as you have some kind of bread. She shares funny ideas like avocado and tomato paste sandwiches or even canned pineapple and mayo!

Eby used to work in fancy food magazines but realized she and her coworkers didn't cook elaborate meals at home. They often ate simple things like ramen noodles with whatever was in the fridge.

This book encourages you to use your pantry and freezer creatively to make quick and satisfying meals. There are even sections where you can roll dice to decide what ingredients to put in your salads, smoothies, or casseroles.

Eby believes that cooking doesn't have to be perfect or Instagram-worthy, it's more important to just enjoy your food. She wants to remind everyone that there's no right or wrong way to cook, as long as you're feeding yourself.
