Vibrant Food ─ Celebrating the Ingredients, Recipes, and Colors of Each Season

"The vivid colors of fresh produce inspire this artistic collection of whole foods recipes from the creator of the acclaimed blog The Year in Food. Photographer and food blogger Kimberley Hasselbrink looks at ingredients differently, regarding them in terms of what colors inspire her: the shocking fluorescent pink of a chard stem, the deep reds and purples of baby kale leaves, the bright shades of green that emerge in the spring, and even the calm yellows and whites of so many winter vegetables. Thinking about produce in terms of color has reinvigorated Hasselbrink's relationship with food, and in this collection of recipes, she employs color, flavor, and texture to build gorgeous yet unfussy dishes. From Curried Okra in summer to Jeweled Citrus Bars inwinter to Pasta with Nettle Pesto and Blistered Snap Peas in spring, this beautiful celebration of the colors, flavors, and moods of each season create a delicious picture of healthy eating"--
